my story so far with psoriasis

Totally agree. It is hard to relax when you're covered in a rash. I tend to schedule a mini breakdown about once a week then give myself a treat (usually a new book, but that's just me).

I also agree with how nice it feels to moisturise. I've posted before about using organic coconut oil after a nice soak in the bath. It makes me feel more human again and I have the waft of a luxury tropical island (or a Bounty bar).
