Pityriasis rosea - don't panic

Dear all
I broke out with this horrible rash two weeks ago. I am due to get married in 5 weeks and went into a panic - how could i wear my dress looking like this - i'd look like a freak - what about my honeymoon - my hen night will be a disaster - I cant do any excersise so i'll be fat and spotty, i can't have a spray tan (despite everything i'd read, sunbeds just made it worse) so i'll be pale fat and spotty!! and a whole range of other panics!
The one thing I have realised is that the more I stress the worse it gets!
Yes it's unsightly but so what, my fiancee still loves me and still wants to marry me! Yes it's itchy and uncomforatble but I keep slappping on the calamine lotion and I'm coping.
It's making me re-asses whats important at the end of the day it's a rash (not to detract from how upsetting it can be - believe me I know!!) but most cases resolve themselves fairly quickly. It's not life threatening and it will usually go away.
