Anxiety they think about the obvious symptoms like excessive worrying feeling agitated
Or irrational fears anxiety symptoms are not just up here

Physically sick too. This is why many people don't talk about the physical symptoms of anxiety because it is extremely

Let alone talk about restlessness if you suffer from anxiety
restlessness can feel out of your control some people get an energetic feeling in their body which causes an
Uncontrollable urge to move like shaking your leg or tapping your hands or feet
Some people call this restless leg syndrome
muscle aches and pains
Anxiety and stress for some unknown reason can cause you to have pains in your muscles some people experience
Back or neck pain when their anxiety levels are extremely high
increased heart rate
a lot of people say when they are anxious their heart beats a lot faster and some people compare it to a
Pounding in their chest. This is because anxiety can trigger the response known as fight-or-flight
Which triggers certain hormones in your body such as adrenaline?
Which increases your heart rate feeling too hot or too cold?

Extremely wet and sweaty
this is caused by your anxiety other people when they are anxious claiming are freezing cold and
Nothing helps them get warm rapid breathing

Anxiety can change how you breathe causing you to take short and shallow breaths
Which is why some people find it difficult to breathe
Trembling when you're anxious your hands arms legs or feet may tremble or shake

Heart attack due to the pains they experience in their chest, but it is not a heart attack
They are experiencing. It is symptoms of anxiety
