Stomach Anxiety
Is it possible that the hives on my back and stomach are a result of stress and anxiety?
I’m quite an anxious person (and have been taking medication for this for about 4 years) and have recently had many stressful events in my life. The hives developed 24 hours ago, but their itchiness and noticibility flare up more at sometimes than others.
At what point should I go to a doctor? If it is stress/anxiety related, at what point should I contact my psychiatrist?
You should see an endocrinologist. Stress worsens many skin conditions — such as psoriasis, eczema, hives and acne — and can trigger asthma attacks.
Anxiety and stress are due to hormonal imbalances in cortisol, adrenaline, DHEA, etc.- which then CAUSES imbalances in the brain.
So medicating your brain with anti-anxiety drugs doesn’t address or correct the problem, it only masks a couple of the symptoms. (This explains why drugs don’t always “work”). Recentl stressful events tax your adrenals, which then raises cortisol levels, and your system is out of whack- so now you have hives.

Through a combination of nerve and hormonal signals, this system prompts your adrenal glands, situated atop your kidneys, to release a surge of hormones — the most abundant being adrenaline and cortisol.
Anxiety isn’t a brain chemical issue- it’s an endocrine issue that causes a brain issue.
