   <p>Hi <inline-mention username="CommunityMember107" user-id="3329085"/>, I can hear how difficult this is for you. Thank you for having the courage to share with our community. You are not alone, and we truly understand. I really wish you had more in person support, it is so hard when others do not get the internal struggle and pain. I really wish you were feeling better. I wanted to let you know that The National Psoriasis Foundation has a peer connection support system. Psoriasis One to One is peer support by phone, email or text. NPF matches you with someone who has been through what you are going through and they will understand, they will listen. <a href='https://www.psoriasis.org/peer-connections/' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer ugc'>https://www.psoriasis.org/peer-connections/</a>. My heart goes out for you and sending you a very gentle hug. Please reach out when ever you need, we are here for you! Jill, Team Member </p>

   <p><inline-mention username="CommunityMember107" user-id="3329085"/>, I just wanted to echo Jill&#39;s sentiments and let you know that we are all here for you. You are dealing with such a lot. Please know that you don&#39;t have to go through this alone. We&#39;re here anytime you need someone to lean on. As you mentioned not wanting to take medication, I thought that the following article on alternative therapies for psoriasis may be of interest: <a href='https://plaquepsoriasis.com/living/best-alternative-therapies' target='_blank'>https://plaquepsoriasis.com/living/best-alternative-therapies</a> I&#39;ve personally found turmeric very helpful in the past, but we&#39;re all unique and respond differently to these things. I hope you can find some relief. Sending big hugs! -Catherine, Community Moderator </p>
