What are some of the signs of anxiety
One of the main symptoms when experiencing anxiety is you can have a lot of thoughts racing
through your mind, and these thoughts are usually negative or scary in nature.
You may experience difficulty concentrating on anything for more than a few minutes or you may
feel like time has slowed down such that everything seems to be moving in slow motion.
You may also have an increased heart rate or feel very tense, you may start sweating and your
breathing becomes shallow and restricted.
Sometimes people will have panic attacks when the symptoms get worse.
Panic attacks can include chest pain, heart palpitations, difficulty swallowing, feeling like you are
choking, numbness or tingling sensations in your extremities, hot flashes, or chills.
If this sounds a lot to handle on your own there is help available—check out the (link to andy’s

disorders. But first check with your doctor to make sure the symptoms you are experiencing are
not due to something else, like a medication side effect or a thyroid disorder.
What does it feel like
So, you’re sitting there and the anxiety attack comes out of nowhere. You don’t know what’s happening or why it’s happening but all you know is that this must be anxiety because anxiety has been building up inside of you for a while now.
You feel your heart pounding quickly in your chest as if you’re about to have a heart attack. Your anxiety might be so intense that you start shaking uncontrollably or crying for no reason at all.
You’re also feeling like the anxiety is in control of your body and mind, which makes it even more difficult to get a grip on what’s happening to you whilst experiencing an attack.
Anxiety attacks can also cause you to feel like you’re about to pass out or vomit, which is a common feeling for someone who has anxiety because it’s happening so suddenly and intensely that you have no time to adjust or regulate your breathing properly.
Another symptom is the feeling of being unable to escape from whatever it is that has caused your anxiety–whether it be a thought, situation, or person.
