Stress rash

So annoying. I have lots of work to do at the moment (and so am procrastinating on KR ) that I'm worried about, and other worries, which seems to have brought on a patch of really dry, flaky red skin on the side of my nose, right next to my eye. If I don't have enough worries, now every time I look in the mirror I am reminded of them, as well as thinking "eeugh." Even if I'm eating properly and sleeping not too badly, I still get this when I'm anxious. Not much purpose to this thread, just to moan about this to other people who get the same thing. I don't think there's much I can really do about it.

I would like to moan about my skin. I have developed proper spots all over my face lately and I don't know if it is stress (breaking up, moving house, shouting a lot) or eating badly (becuase they turned up around about when I went on tour and was eating lots of crisps and bread and cheese) or if it is hormones and I'm still nto sure what the ebst way to find out is and most of all I am scared that either it is a dairy intolerance (NOCHEESE?!?!?) or that I will have them for the rest of my life like my mym.
I WOULD LIKE PERFECT GLOWING SKIN.

& gelf, if you can go to a dermatologist, or an allergist, he/she will be able to tell you what's what.

I get stress rash really badly sometimes. Once in Frankfurt Airport all the skin on my cheeks broke blood vessels from it. It was awful, usually I get it on my neck then up to my cheeks.

I almost wrote eczema in the title, but thought I might get told I was wrong and didn't want to look stupid...wasn't sure if eczema involved oozing, I distinctly remember that being in a description I read of it somewhere. No oozing here. My mum now says it is that.

Gelf, you listed some fairly good-sounding reasons for why your skin might be misbehaving at the moment...it's really annoying when people say that what's wrong is down to stress though, because it's not like it's something you can just stop having. witness:

stress

I don't really understand how do you people get so sressed even if you know it's bad and there are just so many ways to relax. you can find so many articles on that and still it's such a big problem. for example this: 10 Ways To Lift Up Your Mood
you read such an article and you know how to get rid of all the stress you experience, why don't you practice it?

if you don't understand how people get stressed then I can only assume you've never been in a stressful situation. not everyone is that lucky. and you can't always destress whenever you feel like it.

this may sound like a ridiculous/irrelevant question, but is english your native language?

Eczema can occur in quite a few different stages/ways. Sometimes is oozes, sometimes it doesn't.
Most likely (from the circumstance and what you are describing) you either have that (more likely) or psoriasis.

For eczema and other skin conditions caused by stress, the best way to make them go away is less stress - but this is rarely possible (I know all this from experience, sadly). But even if its stress related you should go and get some e45 or similar, and maybe if its really pissing you off go to the doctor and get a mild corticosterioid cream (you'll probably be able to get this over the counter in fact).
You're right if you're stressed a lot of the time you can't help it and you should ask the doctor to sort the rash out for you, you don't need a rash a long with everything else going on in your life. Stress eczema is easily treatable, and so you shouldn't settle for "try not to be stressed". Tell them the rash is making the stress you are experiencing worse, that you're aware you are stressed and trying to alleviate it, and you would like a mild treatment for your skin condition please.

So yeah don't scratch and try an chill out as much as possible.

Like at the moment I don't even have anything to do, and yet the moment I started to stress about it (big metaphysical stress rather than day to day stress) I suddenly had itchy, red, even bleeding, legs. Its shit.
