I dont have anxiety, but I belive one of the first symptoms is to worry all the time about little things, then panic attacks out of the blue...
But remember it is different for everyone

i hope you're ok :)

Sounds a little like stress but your symptoms are pretty general, I mean they could be the flu too with the headache and dizziness...
Only a Dr. Can give you the right answer, have you considered seeing one?

Headaches heart beating real fast. Chest hurts feels like a heartattack. Hypervinilating.

Everyone's First Sign of Anxiety
Posted: 06-12-05 02:03am

I volunteered for a study on generalized anxiety disorder. The symptoms are very similar to depression. One recurring thing I experience is heavy sighing. What it feels like is that I can't catch my breath. I also worry about things and can over-dramatize how something will play out if I can't get control of the situation.

Some other symptoms i've been routinely questioned on are:

muscles twitching
irregularity
going out of my way to avoid things that frighten me (heights, driving, etc.)
inability to concentrate
frequent urination
interrupted sleep
loss of interest in things I used to enjoy
startling easily

sounds fun - huh? I experience (or have) all of these and occasionally, others, as well.

From what i've been told, gad can also be attributed to post traumatic stress disorder; they are very close.

I would suggest seeing your physician and requesting an evaluation. Perhaps with prescription drugs and counseling, you'll find some relief.
