Summary

The impact of psoriasis on an individual's emotional and social well-being goes beyond skin symptoms of the disease. Data suggests patients with severe psoriasis experience a greater prevalence of depressive symptoms, mood disturbances, anxiety and even suicidal ideation. Given the nature of the disease and the treatment failures which are required before a patient commences a biologic therapy such as adalimumab, the patient's mental health at initiation of biologics is an important consideration for clinicians. This study seeks to explore if adalimumab treatment of psoriasis leads to a positive impact on psychosocial factors and disease-related quality of life.
