t do normal activitys and I feel like I am literally dying and my hair is falling out from constant stress. Has anyone else ever had anxiety symptoms turn physical? Or could this be something the tests missed. I genuinely have been tested for so many things.

Hello everyone. I am posting because several months ago I experienced a very traumatic event which pushed my body and mind far passed it's limit as far as the amount of stress I could handle. Ever since then I feel like my body has stored an incomprehensible amount of stress because I never really expressed my emotions to anyone following the incident. My sister told me I sometimes yell in my sleep. Sometimes I would wake up feeling extremely enraged. Other times I wake up crying.

fever, sore throat, swollen glands, headaches, excessive sleeping and fatigue, etc. After about a year of feeling like a had the flu and having no explanation for my symptoms, I started to get depressed. Who wouldn't start to get depressed in that situation? I really think what I had was a biological condition, whether or not it was actually "it.

Namaste, Physicians advise patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome to pace themselves carefully and to avoid unusual emotional or physical stress. Follow a regular and manageable daily routine and take modest regular exercise under the supervision of a physician or physical therapist. In some instances, acupuncture, aquatic therapy, chiropractic, massage, self-hypnosis, stretching, tai chi, therapeutic touch, and yoga have proven helpful in managing Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

I am almost 65 years old and have had chronic palpitations for as far back as I can remember. I am a very high anxiety person that has suffer from chronic depression too for my whole life. My mother was diagnosed with heart disease at age 72 or so and died at 78. I am worried I have heart disease also. I am aware of my heart beat almost always. I have flutters or irregular heatbeats off and on. I am afraid of the heart test like the stress test.

For those of you in significant chronic physical pain/neuropathy (to the level that you're taking chronic pain meds) -- How many of you practice some kind of mediation/mindfulness/hypnosis, etc. to relieve that pain. If so, does it help reduce physical pain (not talking about emotional pain/stress I assume it helps for that). I realize someone will remind me that physical and emotional pain are linked, but regardless, I'm after any physical pain reduction.

Stress has a way of initially motivating and encouraging anxiety and depression. More stress makes it worse and eventually it will cause physical problems. Sorry, for the discouraging news. Just the way it seems to me now.

I'll start by giving some background to the problem I have. I began suffering with symptoms of tiredness and weakness in September 2007.

Does anyone out there suffer daily from physical symptoms of anxiety and if so what are they? I have been suffering daily for almost 2 years now from what seem like neurological symptoms. All my symptoms come and go throughout the day without rhyme or reason. I've been screened for MS and had many tests, MRIs and bloodwork that all comes back normal. They are thinking that all of this is caused by anxiety/GAD. The odd thing is that I don't feel anxious all the time.
