Last year I suddenly had severe atypical urticaria plus arthritis out of nowhere. It looked way worse than how it felt, but it was a little uncomfortable.

Today is more manageable. I improved my sleep schedule, diet, alternatives exercises, sun exposure, etc. All these actions reduced my stress levels. The funny story was that all doctors were saying "your body is extremely stressed". I didn't felt any mental stress at all.

In my opinion daily stress is strongly related to how quickly and how strong the chronic illness develops. I know it sounds cliche, but optimize to a low-stress life.
