hey there, what physical symptoms of anxiety do you experience?
I often feel very alone in my experience of having physical chest (what I think are heart) spasms and was wanting to create a space for everyone to list their physical feelings that come hand in hand with anxiety so we can all feel less alone.
hope everyone is well.

Hello all.
recently I have been pretty good and if any symptoms were coming up they were small and I just did my best to ignore them. But in the past few days I’ve had some flare ups but worse than before. Last night I felt tired out of nowhere and and got a bit lightheaded and then of course assumed I was going into cardiac arrest or something silly then in the past half an hour I was watching a show and started breathing shallow and my chest got very tight out of nowhere and I got dizzy. I’m super on edge now since I thought I was getting better since I’ve been making good life choices.
I’ve also been getting this occasional feeling of something rushing through my body like I feel super shaky but I’m not. It’s like I can feel my blood flowing all over my body. A lot of the time I also feel like I can feel my pulse all over my body like if I ball my fist I can feel it in my palm or put my fingers together I can feel it which I’ve never felt before an I quite frankly don’t like it. Has anyone else experienced these things? Other than this I have been pretty fantastic and even managed to get on a roller coaster the other day without having an attack. I get some chest discomfort like almost a spasm feeling after exercise it not too worrying.
Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.

So many symptoms.....globus sensation, sore jaw, sore ear, sore throat, sore neck, sore shoulders, nausea, reflux, headaches....the list goes on and on. As I suffer severe health anxiety it is a nighmare. As per my last post surely if something sinister was happening the bloods, scans, xrays etc would show something??? 😞

Vallie Sorry for your loss your husband must have been nice if you are missing him so. I hope you find some comfort here on the forums. I wish you well as you progress without him.
The Horrible Anxiety Symptom I Get Is The False Sensation Of Having To Pee it is infuriating Like I can visit the Loo and immediately experience the sensation again. Then I get dizzy I go pale and still I think I need the loo. Doctor has helped me heaps now I preload and I am getting better at handling the false sensations.
