Itchy skin allergy when I'm stressed or anxious

Hi, @nootherthan - I started a new discussion in the Asthma & Allergy support group (also in the Skin Health support group) with your post talking about the itchy allergies you are experiencing on your elbow, upper arms and top of your foot. This is because your situation you described is different from the one you talked about with your mom and thus made sense for its own discussion.

I'd also like to tag others who've talked about similar instances for their input on what you are experiencing with the itching when you have stress or anxiety @siosal @ruthlessman @petere @missyalora52 @meo0624 @jenlemon @bruizersmom @jessduranttt. I'd also like you to meet @gingerw.

nootherthan - I wanted to see if you'd elaborate on the connection you're, I believe, referring to between eating and the skin itchiness you've had. Will you talk more about the skin itchiness you mentioned even when you do not eat the whole day?

possibly look into Histamine Intolerance and/or Mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS)? Pray you find answers (:

Hydroxizine has helped me immensely.

Yes, me also. I was itchy all day long until I started Hydroxinzine. A life saver for me.

I have dermatitis. That is the official diagnosis. I definitely see a connection between any stress and the itchiness of my skin. I think sugar and any alcohol have an impact. Thanks for asking.
