Dry, red and itchy skin patches are the distinct feature of psoriasis. Olive oil is a natural remedy that can soothe the inflamed psoriatic plaques thanks to its high fatty acid, vitamin E, and antioxidant content.

Depression can be difficult to deal with in a world that doesn't fully accept the mental disorder for what it is. If you visit a psychiatrist regularly, you might be prescribed antidepressants.
