anacardium for psoriasis-what to do next?

that's why I think anacardium was a good fit. i don't even think it is a direct remedy for psoriasis. It was the mental symptoms that really seemed appropriate (two personalities, anxiety, etc). but you are saying that based on what i described it wasnt a good remedy?

Here are my symptoms:
skin bright red rash with white flakes on top of it around the mouth, in the folds on the side of the nose and in between eyes.
clumps of dandruff on scalp
itchy anus
the worse the skin issues get the angrier I get
heat makes it worse
really happy during the week then on the weekends depressed, hopeless
self confidence can be an issue
when i get depressed it is because I feel like I am stuck here where I live
isolate
memory is not very good, cloudy

please if there are any other things I can add, let me know. thanks for your help.

oh and the newest thing has been the rash has been under my left arm.

i meant it is in my armpit. Also I am afraid when I am at work by myself. Fear of ghosts or someone there to kill me.

thanks again for responding.

anxieties-fear of not having things to talk about with people,
fear of saying something stupid or offensive
I don't do well when people don't like me
when my anxiety gets bad I am afriad of having a panic attack (which happened only at age 25 but happened a few times, I felt like I was going crazy
feeling like I am running out of time to do the things I want to do
I change residence quite frequently or want to

Fears-when I am at work by myself I hear things I get scared, I always have to look behind me when walking around because someone might be there, a ghost or a person who wants to kill me, also when I go to my car in the morning and it is dark I am afraid someone wants to hurt me and I want to run to the car
I am afraid of germs, I wash things (dishes, cups) and watch my hands too much

History-The obsessiveness started when I was 12 and my father was taking me to play in sports events and he would always watch and be verbally abusive if I didn't play well
He also would shake his head when we were around family and I said something he thought to be stupid

I used drugs and alcohol for a long time (age 14 to 23) to deal with this (I am sober now) but still am a little kid when around dad sometimes (I am 30 now) I still hide things from him so as not to anger him

The fear of the dark, etc has been there as long as I can remember it. I used to hide under the blankets and behind stuffed animals I thought someone was going to come into my window for me

Better/worse-massage always helps the anxiety
but I hate being hugged, kissed or having my space invaded
I don't do well in air conditioning, I have to wear layers of clothes in the summer, I can feel the cold in my bones but it's strange because I like the winter and the fall
Foods I crave potato chips and sweet things. I eat a lot of fruit (seasonally) right now I eat a lot of watermelon
hot water worsens the skin issues

oh, and my mother has asthma and thyroid problems and my father has blood clots

yes, once. 30c, one dose. right before i tried the anacardium. i don't remember why i stopped.

Dr. Sameer,
It's only been one week but I wanted to ask a question. When I took that remedy i felt really calm. Overall, all the symptoms I reported have shown improvement over the past week...even the skin. But over the last two days the skin stuff has slowly been returning. Is there anything I can do. Is this part of the remedy working through me? Because this is where I get stuck with using the homeopathy...since the skin rash is on my face I get frustrated and then end up going to a steroid to get rid of it for when I go back to my job and see people and to deal with the itching. What would you recommend?
Thanks.

I should add (and I don't know if this tells anything) that on the other side of things, there have been a few nights where my breathing was a bit worse (harder to inhale), have had a few dizzy moments, and the worst thing is that when I go out into the sun it makes the itching very intense for about 20 minutes then it settles down. My guess was that this was all part of the remedy working...but I did take an herbal supplement (something I hav been taking regularly but I had been out of it for about two weeks) the night before the skin stuff slowly started to come back on my face...I don't know if that would do that but I'd thought I'd mention...

i have a place nearby who will make up LM remedies. Can I get it from them when ready or is it best to get it from the company you listed?

Is there a more gentle way of doing this? The itching is making me insane and the redness and white crap that is forming on top of it is very embarassing.

i guess today its not AS bad (the itching). so that has to be a good sign.

Thank you for your help, Dr Sameer but I had to cheat. I just couldn't take it anymore. I used a steroid on my skin. I think maybe when my wife and I are more financially stable and I can take time off from work, I will be more able to hold out with these skin issues. The itching and the burning and the chaffing was too much and while it was starting to flake over in some places, i was getting the redness and itch in new places and of course it was on my face. On top of that working with people where i have to be in a good state mentally isn't helping either. So anyway, I appreciate your help and unless you have any advice or insight, I will be putting off homeopathy until I have the ability to cope with the aggravations. THanks again. Jonathan

The other thing that has been on my mind is that I may have messed things up because of my (obvious) impatience with cures. After doing some poking around on this site it got me thinking that I may have taken too many high potency remedies in a short period of time. Before attempting this remedy as reported I took the anacardium 200c and LM1, one dose each. Before that I had been recommended nat carb 200c, one dose and one week before that recommended to take 200c psorinum 2x. And before that over a 2-3 month period had taken petroleum LM1, sulphur LM1 and LM2. That now seems like a lot. All of these except the annacardium was from a homeopathy. My guess is that when you looked at my symptoms i hadn't had a period without a remedy running in my body. I did however after all of those, resort to topical steriod use so maybe they were antidoted. Am I thinking too much or could this actually be a case of too many remedies?
