In general, the more severe your Psoriasis (especially depending on the severity of your lesions or the location of your lesions), your emotional and mental health may be affected negatively.
 

PAM association members understand that Psoriasis patients often face stigma, misunderstanding, alienation and other forms of reactions from family members, friends, co-workers and the general public. We understand that not everyone may face this but for those that do, it can start affecting your emotions and mental health.

Patients with Psoriasis may sometimes experience other physiological symptoms such as tiredness, sleep issues, itchiness and other symptoms that affect your mood, emotions and mental health.

We recommend that facing up to negative emotions or mental health is nothing to be ashamed about. In fact, it is an important part of managing your condition and is just as important as managing the physical aspects of Psoriasis. 
 

Another important aspect is not having to go through Psoriasis disease alone. Many Malaysians have found that their journey in Psoriasis disease has improved tremendously by knowing more Malaysians with Psoriasis through the Psoriasis Association of Malaysia.

It is important to have friends who share the same condition. We have patients that speak different languages in Malaysia.
