Hi

Apart from the rash, then yes I have had all those symptoms and they have been caused by anxiety. Some people do develop rashes through stress but I never have.

Do you feel overly stressed or afraid at times when there is really nothing to worry about?

Hi

Yes, I'm afraid it's a vicious circle - stress and anxiety have physical effects on your body and these physical effects cause further worry.

You have to remember that all these physical symptoms have a biological reason behind them and if the fear was real, you wouldn't find them strange. Unfortunately, the subconscious mind doesn't know the difference between real danger and imagined danger so it fires all your biological defence mechanisms.

The physical effects of anxiety are no more strenuous than having a run round the block in most cases and, in the nine years I have had problems with anxiety, I have had just about every kind of physical symptom you could imagine but none of them are harmful and I'm still fit as a fiddle nine years later - so try not to let them worry you.

Best of luck
