Does anyone find that once they have got hold of a particular anxiety symptom, it changes and manifests in a different way?

I have just started getting head zaps. I was freaked at first but once I read up on them I was happier to know it is most likely anxiety.

I feel like my anxiety is a living beast that wants control of me. I win part of the battle by accepting my palpitations as anxiety.....as an example....but this beast-anxiety-has different ideas and hits me with a new symptom.

I have lost count now of the amount of anxiety symptoms I have or have had but it seems like the list of possible symptoms are endless. I am trying hard to tell myself that these head zaps are anxiety (of course, worry of seizure is there) but when I do completely accept that I am ok......along will come another symptom to fight me.

Anyone get what I am on about?

Happyone
xx
