Me Too
I am 21 and this condition is really starting to ruin my life! I`m not too bad when I`m with my partner and close family but sometimes even with close friends and all the time at work I get a red and blotchy neck that spreads up to my face. People at work are starting to notice and keep asking if I`m okay which makes it worse! I work in a school so lunch times are spent in the staff room and I can`t cope in this social situation. Even if no one is talking to me I get very anxious and my neck turns bright red.
Would I go and see my GP about this? Its so good to know that I`m not alone as noone I know suffers from this so bad. I try to breathe and think of other things to make it go away but it seems to make it worse. I am a healthy person with no history of problems. I have blushed since I left school but the past year the blotchiness has took over, and it`s a nightmare!
I know I`ve wrote an essay but I`ve never let anyone know how much this is really affecting my everyday life as it`s happening at least once a day.
I hope someone has some advice for me.
