Unfortunately, anxiety is cumulative transforming from a teeny-tiny snowball into a tumbling avalanche that destroys everything in its path. It is normal to feel overwhelmed by feelings that accompany it. Unfortunately, when we are overwhelmed by them, they are not easy to recognize. Sometimes, it's helpful to pay attention to when those feelings begin, who we are around, or where we are at. Once you identify the triggers you can analyze the feelings that overwhelm you. You have to be careful if you notice that you are dissociating from reality. Cumulative anxiety can cause you to dissociate. For example, do you experience out of body experiences? Or, are you noticing you're forgetting things and tend to have memory gaps.

Solution: I recommend getting a deep tissue massage. Have your masseuse massage your adrenal glands to get rid of excess cortisol or adrenaline. That will help you feel back to normal.
