Anyone ever had chicken pox as a child, that turned to shingles as an adult?

So i was 7 when i got chicken pox...i had shingles in 2022 after a stressful event in my life.
Anyone else had this happen?

Stress caused the shingles?

@Iwillwait It reactivates the dormant virus. You never really clear chicken pox, it just retreats from your immune system and strikes when you’re compromised.
