Yeah I’ve had stress rashes :( it fuckin sucks. I’ve only ever had it twice but I currently have it still bcos I broke out in stress hives a month ago and still haven’t fully recovered… The good news is that it’s still a histamine response, meaning Benadryl will still provide temporary relief from itching and swelling!!

stress hives are a thing! go to urgent care, and they will probably give you a steroid.

Calamine lotion, oatmeal baths? The biggest thing is to actually reduce the stress if at all possible. Even if you can’t get out of the stressful situation, there’s a lot of things you can do to reduce the physiological stress. For me, the thing that helped the most on the first day I had the hives was walking around outside. Exercise + sunshine is v good for us!!
