Hey....
I think sometimes it's a circle - you get a psoriasis flare up > you feel stressed, you feel stressed > you get a psoriasis flare up. I am not sure that stress is the only thing to have a negative impact on psoriasis but no stress is certainly something that you could do without whether you have psoriasis or not to be honest.....
Factors attributed to stress- like alcohol, smoking, diet could also be a catalyst to having a negative impact on psoriasis but also makes stress worse too.
Despite suffering from both stress (from time to time) and psoriasis I am far from being an expert in either but I do know that there are a few ways to try and cut down and alleviate stress that might help in someway, but would say that each element needs to be tackled/addressed first, be that whatever is causing the stress or trying to get the psoriasis under control in some way.
