I would like to get my hands on more of these medical textbooks! I just read about Exfoliative Cheilitis in a textbook on oral medicine. It states:
The majority of people with exfoliative cheilitis have personality disorders. Topical steroids are helpful in some cases, but in some psychotherapy or tranquilizers are used.
But EC was caused by drugs in many people.- Re: If your doctor thinks you're cra... #64643

I think most people have "personality disorders," if we're counting anxiety and depression. The line between clinical and normal Depression is pretty arbitrary (whether it impacts your life negatively in the long run is subjective), and anti-depressants like Prozac are clearly overprescribed. But there is a "classic" case in which SSRI's worked, which I linked on the wiki under Success Stories.
It could be like the "chicken and the egg," similar to this Leeds Uni study that linked Depression to obsessive Internet use and addiction.

There is no conclusion as to whether Internet use causes depression, or depressed people are drawn to overuse the Internet, or both. It seems anxiety and Depression can occur both before and after developing this condition. I think anxiety and depression are two sides of the same coin, and perhaps both work in a way to prevent timely healing even after infection or allergic reactions have subsided. It's certainly not out of the question.

This is a reply to # 1,571,493I think many people in the world are addicted to the Internet. Just think of how many people use facebook or twitter. But I had EC before the Internet Age.

This is a reply to # 1,571,507It's unclear to me whether cortisol from the adrenal glands in general helps fight infection or inhibits immune response. With too much cortisol, supposedly it kills off friendly bacteria, inviting infection from candida, parasites and bad bacteria. The idea of adrenal fatigue doesn't have too much support in medical literature, but naturopathic Web sites list it as a factor in infection or allergic reaction as well.

Or Functional Endocrinology (Interactive Balances amongst Hormones)
If you are unhealthy, you will find healing by focusing on effectively turning on your body's regenerative process.
Saliva testing of the adrenal glands offers a powerful tool to evaluate gastrointestinal problems, stress-related and hormone-related diseases, and the overall wellness of the human body.
In the Adrenal Stress Index (ASI) from Diagnos-Techs, Inc.,
four saliva samples are used for the following 10 tests:
4 x Cortisol Helps evaluate stress response
2 x Insulin Helps investigate blood Sugar control
DHEA Helps determine stress adaptation
Secretory IgA Helps evaluate toll on immunity, including gut permeability
17-OH Progesterone Helps determine adrenal reserve
Gluten Antibodies Helps identify grain intolerance
With blood and urine testing, a number of borderline adrenal conditions are MISSED due to lack of sensitivity. This is not the case with the ASI because samples are taken within one circadian cycle and the more definitive free fraction is measured.
The most common reasons to use the Adrenal Stress Index:
• Dramatic mood shifts
• Chronic stress and related health issues
• Low immunity
• SKIN PROBLEMS
• Lack of vitality and energy
• Muscle and joint pain
• Hypoglycemia
• Common digestive disturbances
• Migraine headaches
• Osteoporosis
• Sleep disturbances
• Poor memory
• Low sex drive
• Low body temperature, thyroid issues
Saliva testing offers a view into the body's emotional, hormonal, immunological, nutritional and metabolic health.
