I'm new and want to share my experience...

Hello! My name is James and I have only just found out about this site, and after reading about others peoples experiences I wanted to post something about mine. I'm 19 (soon to be 20!) and I've had psoriasis since I was 8 years old. I have had everything from large lumps on my head, to large patches on my face, large patches on my back that have prevented me from bending over without being in pain, on and around my 'lower region' (shall we say). About 12 months ago I underwent UVB treatment for 3 months to treat the patches on my body. I had around 5 or 6 large-ish patches covering my front and back and pocadot patches all over my face and forehead. The treatment was, initially, amazing. Within 3 months all the psoriasis on my entire body was gone. I genuinely thought I was the closest I would ever be to 'cured', I was so so so so so happy. Unfortunately 2 months later the psoriasis came back, and much worse than I've ever experienced it before. I now have roughly 50 patches covering my body, and it's the worst it's ever been. However, I am now the happiest I have ever been with my psoriasis. I've managed to get used to the fact that I've got it, and it's not gonna get much better, and rather than feeling upset and self conscious and depressed about it like I used to I'm looking at it in a different went way; I may look unconventional but the people that matters to aren't people I care for. I've got into a routine of taking vitamin D and moisturising my body with Lush's Dream Cream up to 5 times a day and Sometimes I even forget I've got psoriasis!!
