Anxiety and Colds

Hi, everyone! So recently, I had some nasty bouts of anxiety. When this happens, I tend to get sick shortly afterwards, so right now, while my anxiety is at bay, I'm trying to get over this stupid cold! Does anyone have any insight on how to prevent illness when dealing with stress?

I go through the same thing! Stress and anxiety really hit the immune system hard. I take a multi-vitamin and try to eat a lot of fruits of veggies for the vitamin C. Exercise is supposed to boost immunity too.

I hope this helps. Feel better!
