Some people show little emotion over having psoriasis, while others react intensely.
You may think this is related to the extent of someone's psoriasis, but in reality that doesn't seem to be the case. Whether someone has a few lesions or many, the emotional response is not always the same. What's important, then, is to simply know you may experience definite feelings about having psoriasis. This is helpful in determining how successfully you'll cope. Once you understand the extent of your emotions, you can deal with them constructively.
