Stress triggers skin issues

Stress can end up affecting you in ways that you may have thought were long behind you. As not a lot of adults suffer from adult acne, ending up with skin flare-ups and acne bursts can be unpleasant. If that happens most of the time, it is an issue of frequent stress-triggered hormone imbalances that can lead to more than just acne flare-ups.

A study made in 2018 with medical students has shown that the ones that were suffering due to stress reported problems with acne, itchy skin or rashes, dandruff, warts, and even dry or sore rashes! If you happen to suddenly get any of these skin problems, it is possible only your body’s response to how stress affects it.

    Stress has been so prevalent in my life, that I suffer from Vertigo, diabetes 2, and hypertension. It has become so deep in my day to day that it holds me back with enjoying going out, getting basic chores done in the house, accepting invitations, even shopping for anything, etc.

    What I find stressful is being 72, on limited income, still working prn and paying $50 to Nurse.com for free cme’s, required by my hospital and my license and certification, only to find out less than a week later I could have saved $15 through a special offer!!! You’ve really pissed me off!

    I AM A TEACHER! NEED I SAY MORE?! When I leave work, I have difficulty going to the gym for strengthening. I go home, shower, and fall into bed. Thank GOD my husband and I have no children of our own. Stress has ballooned my weight up to 300 lbs (working to get it off)! Most of my colleagues, myself included, are on antidepressants!

    When I’m under severe stress my eyelashes fall out. Its been happening since I was 17 years old. I could never get a doctor to agree the two were related but after 5 decades of it happening I can say it most definitely is the cause.
