I hoave found that during times of stress Leeza comes out stronger and is probably better able to handle it. If it is not possible to be in Leeza mode then underdressing helps a lot.

I too have found that the needs seems to grow with age. In my younger years when I had the need I could take care of it then it would go away far awhile. Sometimes it was even gone for years. Now the need is a lot more. I am not able to dress most of the time, but am uable to keep both sides happy by underdressing.
I have started underdressing now and it does seem to help.
The common thing i have read in all replies is that stress DOES create the need to dress more. I haven spoken with my SO with regard to this and she has found that my dressing DOES help me to cope a lot better.
She seems happy with this and was quite flattered when I came down today wearing a similar outfit to one she picked up for herself in the shop last week. It really put a smile on her face and she now knows that my admiration was also coupled with envy when she modelled it for me. looks good on her and looks good on me!!
When I figure how to put photos from the phone on to the pc, I will show you all.
Once more I'll have to differ from the majority here. In times of stress I lose the desire to dress. It's as if I have enough to deal with without the added awareness of clothing. Ususally when I dress it is because I am already feeling pretty good.

In my case no as CDing is for me a male thing to do, specifically to assume the that is, while part of me, diametrically opposite of who I am. Noone ever said I was simple...... However age has certainly led to greater self acceptance, and that has played a huge part.
