New to this...
I am new to blogging but a veteran with psoriasis. My sister
was the one who encouraged me to start a blog with the hope that I will stop
letting psoriasis rule my life and so that I could help others who have
psoriasis. So with a shove from the right person, in the right direction, here I
am – a blogger.
A little bit about me:
I have lived with psoriasis since I can remember and I am
now 21, and still living with it.
Psoriasis has affected my life greatly but I don’t want to
be a ‘sufferer’ anymore and because my symptoms are the worst that they have
ever been and my confidence levels are at an all time low I want to overcome my
psoriasis and be proud of myself for doing so and stop hiding it away hoping
that it will go away.
I don’t actually know anyone else who has psoriasis, and
this affects my ability to talk about it with someone, or in fact anyone who
understands how it can make someone feel. I therefore hope to connect with
those people via this blog!!
My mission:
Psoriasis is not a condition that will stop with a certain
generation, and there will always be new people suffering with not a clue where
to turn for advice (as I know from being one of these people), there are of
course doctors, but I mean where to turn for the maintenance of it with
products that accessible to everyone.
Throughout this blog I am planning to test psoriasis products and
review them and wish to share that information with everyone so those who feel
as I do know that they have someone out there who understands and is currently
trying to find that ‘miracle’ which beats psoriasis.
In the long term – it would be amazing to see this blog turn
into an environment where people feel comfortable to share their views and
opinions from their own experiences and about the products that they have tried
and tested. One view is better than two, and so forth.
The problem:
I have never been able to find a product that works entirely
for me, and it is my mission and goal to do that. I know that everyone who has
psoriasis has it to a different degree, in different places and has different products
that work well for them. I don’t wish to claim that one product will cure psoriasis;
I just wish to find those products which have an outstanding effect on reducing
psoriasis for people, who like myself am overwhelmed by the condition and want
to do something about it but don’t have a clue where to start.
So let me start from the beginning – picking products, testing
them and reporting on them.
So let’s get started and end the years of procrastinating
and hoping that one day I will wake up and it will be gone.
Wish me luck :)
