Why is stress making me look so rubbish?!

[DrAdmin]

I’m going through a lot of stuff including a bereavement and my skin and hair look awful - like flat, dead, spotty, bags under eyes.

I’m sleeping well, working out a lot, doing pilates, and eating as normal as well as taking a cocktail of supplements.

Why do I look soooo bad?!

Anybody....?

I think high levels of stress affects your general well-being, even if you are doing all you can to look after yourself.
Your body will be tense and emotions running high which will in turn effect things like skin and hair.
Sorry you’re having a hard time op

Thanks poptart - I should prob just google it shouldn’t I?! I suppose I was wondering if anyone else had the same thing

Stress is a killer, it does major things to our bodies and brains.

I've visably aged at times of great stress.

When my Unkle died, my Nan lost a lot of hair and it never grew back.
