So I feel very anxious in the past days and I feel like little needle stings on my skin. Arms and feet. They appear for a few seconds and than vanish. Than the feeling is somehwere else. My anxiety get‘s much worse through this and I think this make my symptoms even worse. DAE ? :/

Yes. I’ve had it for years, though for me whilst it starts out llke little stings, it quickly become more like a deep itch that travels to different locations jumping spots every few seconds. It’s usually restricted to my lower legs but sometimes goes higher up the legs and often includes the arms these days. I can literally feel it right beore it kicks in, I know what is coming.
I thought it was skin issues but it’s not (have tired every combo of cream, non perfumed lotions and washes, even antishistamines don’t work) At this point I am 95% sure it is tied to anxiety. Anxiolytics don’t help this symptom.
I truly commiserate, my bouts can last up to an hour and it’s truly miserable when it happens.
Yes! It’s horrible.
I had terrible neurological itching on my 20s. If it continues, go to a doctor. There is an antihistamine you can be prescribed called Hydroxizine that can help with both anxiety and itchiness.
