Anxiety and work ?!

I don't understand it but in a way it makes sense . So I work an hour away from home , and when I know I have to go to work I feel extreme anxiety . I feel like I'm stressed out constantly , I keep getting picked at about things . I feel homesick almost when I'm at work . My heart just isn't in it . I have an interview closer to home on Sunday so I'm praying it all works out . Does anybody else get really bloated with their anxiety ? I mean I don't eat right I get it I'm gone 12 hours a day I eat a lot of fast food and barely drink any water . I'm gonna change my diet and start being more healthy but I'm constantly thinking something wrong or I'm gonna stop breathing . Even when I breathe in it sounds tight . My muscles are tight all over . Idk what to do . Any suggestions

Thats one of my biggest complaints is that my muscles are constantly tight, then I think I have something seriously wrong, like they just wont relax so from being so tense im always so shaky or clumsy. And i know what you mean about work, luckily mine is close to home but i get the anxiety while i'm here also cause im at a desk all day and from being here 16 years its taken a toll on my back, hands (carpal tunnel) neck etc. But I just keep reminding myself it will get better and I need to work. Feel better soon
