It sure can be tiresome trying to figure it all out sometimes allen. Is there anyone who may be able to help you apply it? If I didn't moisturize I would be in a huge amount of pain. Have you ever tried coconut oil? It absorbs great and is easy to apply. Spreads great :)

It has never bothered my hubby as we were together pre psoriasis, I'm still me , I have chronic psoriasis but to hubby the psoriasis doesn't matter it's our love that we have for each other that is more than skin deep .
Enjoy the intimacy
I suppose it must be harder for younger people just starting out in relationships, it's hard enough undressing in front of a new lover when your skin is fine ( will he/she like what they see) without the added pressure of having psoriasis. My heart goes out to you all. I'm very lucky that I've been with my hubby almost 40 years xx

@ Jessica, I am with you sista! its been 3 years since I have given myself the gift of purity for marriage and it has nothing to do with my P and everything to do my self worth! Its so nice to see that I am not the only one!

@ Ann
Yes we do have a sense of humour because life can be very serious. Some have a lot of it ...some are still looking for it and some aren't getting the meaning of it. :-)))
Sorry about your Christmas present but glad about your new relation at 64.
I know it's hard but Psoriasis doesn't care if you are happy or down. It's better to pick yourself up, and start to get those flakes from your body... take a nice bath and moisture like crazy. If you are waiting til they take care of you..well you can wait a long time for that. Just start caring about yourself like you were a young child. Love yourself a lot!!!
By the way.. my mom divorced my dad at the age of 67 to go living with a man she knew when she was a young girl. They lived together until she died at 76. Sooo there still is a lot of things to do in life :-))))) Keep the faith and watch a bit what you eat and don't stress and stop thinking about what can happen. I'm done preaching :-))))))

I find it really good that you all (mostly) have such a sense of humour. Me I sadly lacking as only suffered (badly) since Christmas. Have it dreadfully almost everywhere and very down with it. Sex...well hopefully it will resume..but at 64 I had been amazed it restarted with a new relationship but feel it may be at an end..I am lucky though have a great family and could have been worse....x

@allanncaz .... Have you bought a TV now?? ;)
