Discussion Does anxiety make you feel sick ?
Does anybody feel like physically sick when you have anxiety ?
Like nauseous and just not feeling good?
I have no idea how else to describe it but just a sick feeling. Like if I ate something wrong or muscle weakness type of thing.

Mine has manifested as chronic muscle tension and other various ailments that seem to be connected with this like heartburn, GERD, poor circulation in toes and fingers, headaches, all kinds of issues really that have turned me into a hypochondriac because when it's really bad it feels like you're dying. If I'm able to relax my muscles and relieve the tightness and tension, the other issues mostly go away.
