What Causes Itching On Body When Under Stress?

I feel my skin starting to itch when energetically I can t handle the stress in front of me--whether I m on the phone or someone is talking to me. I feel like I m talking to a wall with most people who are very annoying and don t really listen or don t care. I do best with one to one relationships (friendships) and almost never go out. This is a resent thing for me and the hives don t always come out esp with people I feel connected with which are very few. I m being tested for food allergies and Celiac. I am very careful with food choices but recently got a bad case of hives. Thanks, Barbara
