Anxiety physical symptoms

I've suffered from anxiety all my life but recently the physical symptoms are becoming difficult to live with.

I get lightheaded and walking becomes hard, every step feels heavy but unbalanced at the same time and I have to move slowly or I feel like I'm going to fall.

Pressure in my head as well, partly the anxiety but also sinus issues too because of pollen.

And I'm exhausted, literally drained of energy and just want to sleep. Result of the anxiety. Also result from trauma from a few years ago when I went through a mental breakdown after losing my mum.

And all of this has triggered my health anxiety.

Please give me a break!!!!!

Why can't anxiety just leave me alone?

  • I have and still am learning to accept my physical symptoms and that they are exasperated when i am mire anxious or mire tired, or put it down to autism. For example the unexplained fatigue recently only to realise that i have been constipated. This has led to the increased fatigue. Rest and sleep helps. Pressure in my head, it passes. The symptoms do pass, so i gave learned to accept that they are happening .
