Do you suffer from these symptoms? health

Anxiety manifests itself in different ways and contrary to popular belief, the symptoms aren’t just psychological.

Why do I get an anxiety rash?An anxiety rash is sometimes also referred to as a stress rash. Most often, it’s a response to your body’s immune system attacking the anxiety, so Fortunata Oleszkiewicz, clinic director at Koha Skin Clinics explains. The body’s response to the feeling of cortisol levels rising is a partly physiological one. It releases histamines to the rest of the body in a bid to fight anxiety.

For me, it looks almost identical to a heat rash. For others, you might have itchy, raised bumps or perhaps it only affects one part of your skin.
