What Does Anxiety Feel Like?
Anxiety can affect your thoughts, body, and emotions. You may be experiencing:
Racing thoughts or obsessive worries
Muscle tension, fatigue, or shakiness
Panic attacks, shortness of breath, or heart palpitations
Trouble sleeping or constant restlessness
Fear of social situations or making mistakes
Difficulty focusing, memory lapses, or feeling “on edge”
A constant sense that something is wrong—even if nothing is
Everyone experiences anxiety differently. If it’s interfering with your daily life or relationships, counselling can help.
