Well I have had almost all of them, and when they come they stay! some of my worst are facial pain & feeling out of it.
But they are all anxiety. No idea how they stay so long, different than what you preceive anxiey to do, you expect the symptoms to come with panic and go but mine stay. 24/7. you have to ignore them, accept them and go on with life they will SLOWLY fade. SLOWLY :)

Heya Toni,

Fear not, I suffered from exactly the same as you constantly as well. All day and night for a couple of months I felt shocking like that. It's definitely all abxiety related, Sounds to me like lots of small panic attacks.

Try some breathing exercises, a lot of these are caused by hyperventilating!

Love Amiee
