August is Psoriasis Awareness Month💜

Here are three things everyone should know about psoriasis:

1) It's hard to live with! People with psoriasis are twice as likely to suffer from depression as people that don't have it. So be nice if you see someone that has it and please don't stare.

2) It's not contagious! So don't be weird about shaking hands or touching someone with psoriasis. 

3) There's no cure and there are many types of triggers. Stress, cold weather, even smoking can all cause a flare-up. Symptoms can be successfully managed however and that's where we come in!
