A Resource About Psoriasis


------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     It isn't easy to deal with the problem of psoriasis with its scaling
patches that top reddened, cracking skin.  While the most severe forms may be
severe enough to actually result in death for a few hundred people each year,
the majority of people with psoriasis find, in the words of the National
Psoriasis Foundation, that "living with it is murder" . To the many who must
live with it, the latest publication from the Psoriasis Foundation can provide
a wealth of helpful information.  Its called "Psoriasis:  How it Makes You
Feel" and provides perspectives on living with psoriasis.  There are sections
that deal with "Ways to Make a Change", "Recognize Feelings for What They Are"
and provides practical tips and counsel.  There is also a fine section that
outlines the help and support that can be obtained from the Foundation who
provides this booklet to you.  You may obtain your free copy by requesting the
booklet from the National Psoriasis Foundation, P.O. Box 9009, Portland Oregon
97207.  Since the Foundation is a nonprofit organization supported by
tax-deductible donations, I am sure they will appreciate you providing a
stamped self addressed business size envelope with your request.
