Does anyone ever get a blotchy reddish rash on their chest or shoulders when you're feeling anxious or overwhelmed?
I wouldn't be too worried about it if it wasn't for my recent extreme health anxiety.

Also my skin feels hot sometimes with anxiety like almost as if I have sunburn but nothing is there!

We all have skin on this forum, so it's a good bet we all get rashes from time to time. It's also true that anxiety can cause rashes (as can many other harmless things).

So, the best advice I can give is to keep an eye on it and it it persists, get your GP to take a look. But don't worry!

The blotchy-ness goes away but my shoulders feel like they have been sunburnt even though they aren't! Anxiety?

Lots of people get blotchy rashes on their upper body - usually totally harmless.
