Hi there, has anyone considered if mental health affect their “itch”. I suffer from anxiety, and the relentless itching definitely increases my anxiety and irritability. Initially I was convinced it was only my anxiety as the cause but since learned that sun damage is a contributer. Unfortunately I work in the sun all day everyday, in the hotter months it definitely gets worse. I was put on an anti depressant, but stopped after reading the side affects. Also iv become immune to cortisone creams like “itch ease”. Any other recommendations for creams or gels?
Thanks.
