Psoriasis often shows, so strangers notice it and some of them stare. ShareWell has free online support groups for people living with long-term illness, where what your skin looks like does not matter.

Topic context

Understanding psoriasis

Psoriasis is a long-term immune condition that causes raised, scaly patches on the skin, and some people also develop a related condition called psoriatic arthritis, which affects the joints. Psoriasis is not contagious, but because it often shows, it affects clothing choices, dating, swimming and confidence.

Why it helps

How peer support helps with psoriasis

Peer support can help with psoriasis because shame about appearance leads people to cover up and stay in. A group is a place to be seen as a person first.

Inside the room

What psoriasis groups often cover

  • Stares, and people who wrongly think it is contagious
  • Covering up in warm weather
  • Dating and intimacy with visible skin
  • Joint pain from psoriatic arthritis

ShareWell groups are peer support and do not give medical advice, so please keep working with your care team on anything about diagnosis or treatment. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a psoriasis group I can join?

A psoriasis group has not been set up. In its place you will find groups for people with lasting health conditions of every sort, as well as calm sessions like breathwork.

I am self-conscious on camera. What can I do?

Look for groups marked camera optional, which let you take part with your video off.

Is it silly to struggle over a skin condition?

No. Living with a visible condition affects daily life, and your feelings about it are valid.

Where can I find medical information about psoriasis?

The National Psoriasis Foundation (psoriasis.org) has patient information and patient navigators.
