Hi I’m having anxiety and spoken to my doctor, but since then I’ve started having symptoms. Juts like to know if anyone here suffers with the same and what kind of symptoms your having pls.

Anxiety might cause it, but equally anxiety could be a symptom running alongside these other symptoms, pointing to something else. It might just be a simple as a vit D deficiency or a thyroid issue.

I think you should go back to the doctor and say what symptoms you're having, listing anxiety as a symptom too. I worry that if you go in saying you have anxiety and it's causing X, y and z, a lazy doctor will accept your own diagnosis. If you list the symptoms, they'll be engaged to think what could be causing it, and they'll potentially rule things out.

So sorry you are feeling this way, especially with the holiday approaching. Talking about your feelings is smart! That's wonderful.

Holidays can trigger even more anxiety. "Anxious for Nothing" is a book which helped me. You might want to check it out. bit.ly/2YTJUPV Also, talking to loving, trusting family and friends, Christian counseling, exercise, and prayer really helped me. Hope this helps you today.
