Skin changes?

[spencer24]

Has anyone else experienced skin changes from your anxiety? Ever since my anxiety has really kicked into high gear I have been getting spots (like new moles or acne) all over my torso. Not widespread like a rash, but I get new ones every so often. And my chest has had an increase in little tiny acne spots as well that tend to go away. The other pink spots that look like flat moles or new freckles stay. I showed my doctor and she said they were nothing to worry about....but they still do. They don't itch. I am thinking maybe the increased stress hormones from the anxiety are causing this, plus my skin is overall more sensitive to spots now. Just wondering if I am alone on this one.

It makes sense that you're breaking out. Stress definitely causes that. Your hormones fluctuate during those kinds of periods.
