Anxiety Symptom
Anxiety symptoms are actually symptoms of stress. Many refer
to these symptoms as anxiety symptoms because anxiety stresses
the body, and once the body is stressed it produces symptoms
of being stressed.
For the sake of clarity, we’ll also
refer to them as anxiety symptoms, for now.
Anxiety symptom: a physical, psychological, emotional, or
spiritual anomaly. Therefore, anxiety can cause physical, psychological,
emotional, or spiritual symptoms.
The body produces symptoms to let us know
that something is not functioning normally. The body uses
symptoms to communicate that we are, or something is, doing
harm to the body. It is trying to get our attention so that
we’ll take action
to stop the harm.
Symptoms aren’t sensations we need
to be afraid of. But they are warning signs that we need
to take corrective action to prevent further harm. They are
messages designed to protect us, and not to harm us.
There is a long list of anxiety-caused symptoms. But because
each body is somewhat chemically unique, anxiety affects each
person differently. Consequently, anxiety symptoms will vary
from person to person in type or kind, number, intensity, and
frequency.
For example, one person may experience only a few minor symptoms,
while another person may experience the majority of symptoms
to great intensities. All combinations are possible and common.
Anxiety symptoms can range from mild to severe, from only
one symptom to all of them, and can be sporadic, frequent,
or persistent. Again, all combinations are possible and common.
