  • its not a disease...its a condition

  • @MangoBastard i didnt have any on my body for 3 years, i were totally clear. But 2 months ago i got some on my legs and arms. You ALWAYS have this condition in your body, though you can get almost completely clear for many years. But it can break out again.

  • @GustavoMorenoo it is an auto-immune DISEASE.

  • dear viewers.good news!

    my 5 year old son had psoroasis on his back,arms,buttocks and behind the knees.we thought that it was from his bed wetting but found out that it was psoriasis.

    we simply used organic apple cider vinagar to rub him down with twice every day.the psoriasis is gone now.thank god.it really works.the acv stings but that helps kill the psoriasis.after as few days,the stinging will go away but you must keep up applying the acv until it goes away.look no further.good luck 2 all

  • Not sure about substance abuse.... I have psoriasis and I don't do tons of drugs o.O

    

  • @GustavoMorenoo yes...and you're a fatalist.

  • @Buffymania86 I feel bad for you. I went through all that. kids told me i had scabies, aids, and all kinds of things. they made fun of me, but don't let what people say or think get to you. Think about the people who care or the people who WANT to understand whats wrong with you. Only surround yourself with them, you'll be happier. go to National Psoriasis Foundation site for conversations and support. As Dr. Seuss said, "People who mind don't matter, and people who matter don't mind."

  • @PureBrutalSickness I don't 'suffer' from my skin. Psoriasis is apart of who i am & will always be. Not ashamed of it. had it 22 years now. i have the ability to make it not show. Instead i just let it sit there. It doesn't itch or do anything. It works no different than normal skin when controlled. I'm probably only at 5% covered. My skin causes conversations. My own way of awareness not just about the disorder but about diversity & acceptance. so more on purpose than wrong in my actions ;)

  • @PureBrutalSickness to learn to control it. Its pure natural treatment. I can't do meds. I grew immune to most as a kid. got annoying. Then i ended up with some lavender items, and it worked wonders. i started researching these. I use lavender, milk, and chamomile. It clears it up in a week for me, which genetics isn't the same for everyone. What works for one doesn't work for the other in genetic diseases. But here's your kicker, I control it but still let it show.

  • @PureBrutalSickness who? oh no. theres no who. Psoriasis is located in your dna. Its no different than the color of your eyes. Your skin shows its effects even when you don't notice it. My mother has the recessive gene. Recessive gene effects shows on her hands from time to time. Never a spot of psoriasis on her, but signs of the gene. As for treatment, i treat from my trigger. some have an easy trigger, some have a hard trigger. Mine is an easy trigger, so it took a while to learn to control

  • @neverjanay who do you treat you're psoriasis from the outside or from the inside out??? cuz if it comes back it means theres something wrong in you're inside...
