Neurodermatitis.
It sounds pretty scary, especially being described as a "psychogenic itch", but it's really not much. It's just an excema-type thing that pops up occasionally and seems to be related more or less directly to stress. This is why I'm a fairly chilled out (occasionally bordering on apathetic) guy for the most part - I've long realized that I have to avoid causing myself any stress whatsoever since it directly messes up my health.
