Curse of my father
Psoriasis Genetics
It’s hereditary I can’t stand it I have been dealing with it for a very long time around 12 when I remember it started to progress or maybe first came out all on my arms and scalp and ears. I ended up with psoriatic arthritis halfway through 39 years of age and less than a year ago I ended up with 2 more different kinds of psoriasis so now I have 3 of the 5 psoriatic arthritis. It affects me daily my mood my self-confidence my energy the way I dress the things I can’t do or do so much slower the pain level sometimes is so bad I would almost rather end my life than take another breath but of course, I take another breath so that I can basically have my whole life revolve around psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis what to eat not eat wear not wear medications ointments creams home remedies trying not to stress trying always to keep myself on a list of do’s and dont’s is hell. It’s exhausting and stressful and stress is a big trigger for me. Mostly I feel like I’m fighting a losing battle and for what? A few good days?? Those aren’t even half of what makes up the rest of my days because there are so many more bad days than good. But this is my life. This is my cross to bear and I bare it alone I probably always will there is no Prince Charming or happily ever after not for me
