oily face = nervousness?

My face gets oily constantly nonstop. I wash it every 2 hours because otherwise it gets unbearable, i start getting REALLY agitated and i get pimples. I find that im alot more agitated ( stretching feet, uncomfortable in skin etc ). I also tend fo get really nervous around people when my face is oily. When i wash it i feel more refreshed and im more comfortable. Does this make anysense to anyone out there? If so what would u suggest? Any special cream to permanently remove the oilyness for ever? or take medication?

Is your face actually oily, or you just think it is?  Any other sort of compulsive behaviors?  If it is that oily, it's probably your diet.

I had problems with that and it went away when I found some foods I was sensitive to.
Also dandruff went away.  Problem for me was sugar in all forms and wheat.

Washing your face too much can actually make it more oily. Try using a facial mask every few days and get those blotters. They sell them at drug stores and even grocery stores in the facial care section. You can keep them in your pocket and blot your face when it gets oily. I hope this helps some. Take care. Remar
