I was in a very bad situation at work and was out on leave for 3 months for stress. I changed job about 6 months ago but the physical signs of my stress such as my hair shedding and acne has not stopped.

I have been in stressful situations before in my life and I have experienced hair loss, acne, anxiety and other symptoms of stress. These things seem to take forever to clear up...sometimes about a year. You should be seeing improvement though at 6 months. Sometimes medication can cause hair loss...Many other things can cause acne too. Products you use on face or hair can cause this. Hope this helps.
