Psoriasis

Psoriasis thickens the skin - our boundary of contact - and is read through a deep, unmet need for love and a separation felt twice over. The pattern is a highly sensitive person, raw to the touch, who has lived an intense abandonment; the doubling of the skin mirrors a double separation - from two loved people, or doubly from one - so that one may even feel cut off from one's own identity, while sometimes enduring unwanted contact one cannot refuse. The short explanation's inability to accept perceived injustice is that doubled, unaccepted loss. Relief is described as restoring loving contact - first of all with oneself - and accepting one's own skin and identity rather than armouring against touch.

Example from the findings: psoriasis is tied specifically to a double separation and to feeling separated even from oneself.
