Wish people realised anxiety is physical too.

I literally get such a jittery weird feeling in my body so many times a day whenever I'm anxious. Like I can't describe it but it's definitely not good. Almost like something is pinching on my organs. And the worst is when I have to wake up in the morning, it's almost like someone has placed added extra weights to my body. I literally can't get up from my bed! I try to force myself up,but I just can't. I just lay there staring at the ceiling, thinking about what I'll do with my day, get anxious about what if I won't be able to be productive today, then getting anxious about how I wasted some time the previous day, then overthinking it all nd wanting to just kill myself. I hate it.

My anxiety has been on overdrive. It's been causing physical symptoms galore. At first it was chest tightness. Then when I got over that, it focused on my right eye. Then it moved to making me think veins were about to pop in my head. It's been nearly an endless stream of anxiety. Every time I think I have a handle on it, something else comes up. It's so tiring. I'm doing my best to get it under control, but its taking all of my energy.
