One symptom that really affects me that doesn't seem widely talked about is sweating (not just sweaty palms). I get anxious in public, which makes me sweat, which makes me more anxious that people are looking at/judging me for it...and you can see that's a vicious cycle.
You are correct sweating is a common symptom of anxiety and panic attacks. It is good you are bringing this to the attention of others. I hope you are able to find treatment for your symptoms. 🙏🏽
I experienced this a LOT last school year. I don't have an anxiety disorder but experience anxiety symptoms due to past trauma. I was sweaty all the time last school year and it was so frustrating.
I couldn't agree more. I'm 72 and when I go out for daily exercise walks, when I return my clothing is saturated. I have to put my clothes over towel racks, hang from dresser drawers so they will dry out. Worse, my eyes will sting from the sweat pouring down my face and scalp.
I’m so glad that people are starting to be more aware of anxiety. I was diagnosed with adhd when I was 8. Some of the side effects of adhd is overthinking and getting overwhelmed easily. This caused me to have some anxiety problems were I would stress so much I would pick my skin, bite my nails, and pull my hair. I got diagnosed with Trichotillomania and lost all of my hair. Luckily all my hair has grown back it took 3 years to get it back completely and now I’m on my medications again. Make sure you catch it early before it transforms into something you can’t control anymore.
Ah, that sounds really challenging. Super that you where able to find help and overcome (big parts of) your problems. How did you deal with the skinpicking?
@@lukadevogel3797 I make sure that I’m always doing something to keep me busy with my hands. Like oftentimes when I’m in a waiting room for something. I’ll maybe scroll though my phone or crochet. Maybe write a story, draw, Or go on a walk.
I see Gojo, scaramouche, mikasa, eren and armin, I'm happy. For real though this made me learn a lot about myself. I already knew that I have anxiety, because I've been diagnosed and take medication for it, but I experience all but one of these symptoms. I'm glad to know I'm not dying :) Thank you so much for making this!!
I have been noticing i have been experiencing symptoms of anxiety and this makes it make a lot more sense. I'm going to hopefully get it checked out soon so i can get some help! Thank you for always making understanding and clear videos for disabilities and other things i really appreciate your content and keep up the good work:]
It is great to hear that you are going to be seeking help for your anxiety, as the sooner you start treatment for it the better the outcomes will be. I wish you the best on your mental health journey 🙏🏽.
Was it anxiety, symptoms could be deceptive,eat healthy,don't worry and focus on sleep,anxious to see if you get itchy,tired and sleepy effects your life,do you feel cold✝️
Me too should i seek a mental health doctor cuz these symptoms are getting worse and i don't what to do about it my parents just say it's because of phone or your introvertness but there's no one to guide me through it. It's just u ppl that help me with my mental health 🤧
In addition to these symptoms I would add rage. In a situation that would normally make me irritated I go straight to full rage with maximum heart rate. My pulse is so high and hard that I hear it and feel my arteries pounding on my neck and it takes a lot of mental effort and a long while before I can make it go away.
Ha, your anxiety is weak if it still lets you feel rage. Mine has hijacked all of my emotions so that any negative feeling is redirected through the anxiety circuits.
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression , I would like to try them again but it's just so hard to source here
Psychedelics are the reason why i didn't take my life when i was at my end . I was stripped of my ego and saw the beauty of life and interconnectivity and even though i still battle anxiety and depression , I'm doing better everyday and will never think in such a self destructive way again .
LSD and mushrooms completely changed my whole outlook on life . I became a better version of myself This experience gave me a lot of confidence about my self and my body . A bunch of bad thought / behavior patterns were broken . One of these was pretty bad OCD that made me wash my hands a lot . It gave me a lot of hope that things will be fine , this is the one thing that I heard throughout the trip : Everything is alright . The main reason for the trip was my severe depression and it definitely helped me ( although it's not gone ) . Before all I could do was lay in bed . Now I am trying to rebuild my life one step at a time which wasn't possible before . "
I struggle with chronic anxiety. Most of it is social but I do still get random anxiety even when I’m home alone. Everything you’ve talked about I relate to 100%
You're not alone! It's very common. I have been there, and thankfully have now healed. Hoping you can find a resolution to your anxiety problems, too 💛 - Julia
I have worried about these random pains and aches for a long time now. I know I probably have anxiety as well, so this gave me quite the relief. Thanks for another amazing video! Also I haven’t been professionally diagnosed, I just know I stress about anything and everything, and sometimes nothing at all. I’ve just learned to cope with it 😁
It certainly wouldn't hurt to ask a medical professional about it in case there's more to it and they could also give you some resources for managing it! :)
@@Sam_Wolff I’ve just learned to calm myself down. I don’t get panic attacks or anything. I just get more stressed about small things. I appreciate your concern tho 😊 It’s also because I have a zinc deficiency.
I was diagnose with severe GAD and social anxiety pretty late but i already knew that i had anxiety and other problems along with that for like my whole life so i learned more about it to understand it and it’ll all made sense, anxiety has affected and ruined every single aspect of my life. I don’t even remember a time where i wasn’t anxious and going through the dreadful physical and mental symptoms or fearing of having another panic attack and another anxiety attack. I don’t know if its ever gonna get better
You're not alone! It's very common. I have been there, and thankfully have now healed. Until I learned to heal I just thought that being anxious was apart of me and it could never change, luckily that isn't true! Hoping you can find a resolution to your anxiety problems, too 💛 - Julia
I got diagnosed with severe anxiety when i was 5, so i basically grew up with it. Not a moment in my life did i remember not feeling anxious at all. Ive found ways to calm my nerves and is often better when I’m with the people i love but its always still there lingering somewhere, and I hate it. Having an anxiety attack over the smallest of things for almost 12 years drives someone insane,, i honestly dont know how i am going to live with this constant discomfort for the rest of my life.
Same. Im not formally diagnosed but it’s pretty obvious that I’ve had severe problems with it my whole life. I hope your health improves and i with you the best
Same as well 👍. Had it since around 7 and I’m 35 now. Every day it’s there. I can no longer distinguish between an irrational, anxious thought and my own. I wish you both well 🙏❤️ Anxiety can definitely be eased XX.
I was also diagnosed when i was 5 and it really makes life seem impossible at points... like I was on meds for it but they sent me into liver failure so I don't really have many options but to just "get over it" -,,- good luck man.
Oh my god I’m so sorry you had to go through this shit so early. I’m 15 and I’ve started to have these feelings the past couple years and it’s hell, i can’t imagine how difficult it must have been to struggle with this ever since you were a toddler.
I'm in my 30s and had it since I was 4. It's best to get enough rest, calm environments, and as much stress free time as possible. Remember when things get bad tell yourself you made it through this before you will make it through again. I wish us all to be cured. 🙏🏼
I don't mean to self-diagnose myself but.. this is hitting hard. My hands and feet are always either burning hot or freezing cold, along with hives and stomach problems. I'm not sure what to do but thank you for this video
These symptoms could be many different things are aren't necessarily tied with anxiety, so it's best to check it out with your doctor! But, it seems like you already know that :) I hope you get better or at least understand what's going on!
I’ve kinda self diagnosed myself too. There’s nothing wrong with it imo but I recommend seeking help if you can. Finding ways to deal with these feelings early is useful for the rest of your life as well. I’m not going to say that these feelings will magically go away, since anxiety is something everyone have. Anxiety is there to be good, but it can develop into a disorder if you feel anxious all the time and it affects your everyday life. So getting professional help is definitely something everyone who suspect they have a disorder should do.
I've been there - especially the stomach issues. That was my #1 symptom, I'd say. Along with seeing professional help for my stomach issues, I also worked a lot on my mindset and healing both my mind and body in unison to finally overcome anxiety. Hoping you can find a resolution to your anxiety problems, too 💛 - Julia
This is so me..related so much.so sad,anxiety changes me a lot when it comes to behaviour.i get easily to react and being sensitive. And its very difficult to have this because nobody who understands me.😔my anxiety is to be come part of my everyday life now since im suffered before depression.
I recently had a reevaluation of my goals to accomplish in therapy, which is when I discovered that GAD (Generalized Anxiety Disorder) had been added to my diagnostic list. I'm not surprised, but I'm kind-of relieved because it's official: people generally don't argue with/invalidate you as much when you have an official diagnosis and it's not "just you" or "all in your head."
i finally told my family about the panic attacks that i’ve been having. i feel so much better and it’s because of your videos that i was able to understand why i might be feeling this way and why it might be happening! tysm for all of the videos it really helped me !!!
exercising helps a lot. seriously. people say to do it because it works. if you’ve never exercised i highly suggest you do it. it is incredible for you and feels incredible for you after the first few times
I've suffered from anxiety for all of my life. My mom was the type that wouldn't hit you. She would just destroy you until you hated yourself and questioned your self worth. Until you stopped doing that because you KNEW you weren't worth anything. I was doing soooooo much better, or so I thought. Then I quit my mediocre finance job that wanted me to commute 2 hours each way for a commission job, from home, doing the same thing I used to do I got physically sick. Not because of the job and the rock of failure. But, because I Knew my mom would destroy me emotionally for not just commuting. This time I got ahead of her. I told her that I'm telling her something that is going to piss her off and I hadn't said anything earlier because she literally makes me sick and tries to destroy me. She didn't say a word and we've never spoken about it again. I feel better now. 😌 Let's hope that this is permanent progress.
I've had anxiety problems my entire life and can relate to all the symptoms you spoke of. The 2 that have been most problematic are IBS and awful insomnia. I think the chronic insomnia is the worst and leaves me almost unable to function when I should during the day and really adds to the pain of muscle tension. Your videos are so helpful and I love them! Thank you again for another great video so soon, can't wait for the next
Im someone who has had anxiety since age 9, and i really never got treated for it till i was older, cause my mother didn't feel safe putting me on medication. Let me tell you, anxiety sucks. The sad part is people are trying to fake it. Its not like they knew how much we overthink, Hallucinate ourselves paranoid, stay up till dawn, avoid reaction with people scared they will scream or think something bad, Cant go outside cause of fear of death, stomach aches 24/7, feeling of throwing up when nervous, hyperventilating over little things, itching my skin till its red over a stupid test. And etc. Never fake a mental health condition for validation, till you figure out what the hell it actually is.
I had no idea being cold war part of it! I've always been colder, thyroid fine not anemic, but i never knew why. I've been essentially self medicating with: soda, soups, multiple blankets at night, hot tea. Just to deal with being cold all the time. I thought i was emotionally cold and distant and mentally manifesting as physically cold. I'm not exactly warm and fizzy emotionally all the time either, its draining :(
I have anxiety and it’s hard for me to do everyday tasks. For context I am a teenage girl so I’ve been programmed to have extra anxiety when im out in public at night, and dad wanted me to walk the dog when it was dark out. He came with me, but I was still anxious and overly cautious. He told me I was being irrational and I was ruining the walk with my jumpiness. I told him “I know it’s irrational, but knowing that doesn’t change my tenseness. And you know that. So what do you plan to change or achieve by reiterating something I already know? This walk was really hard for me. But I showed up and I chose to leave my comfort zone. You’re always telling me to live life, well! Im doing it! It’s scary for me, but that’s the whole point of overcoming anxiety. It’s not easy and leaving your comfort zone will never be comfortable. You should be proud of me for choosing to fight my anxiety. Not condemning me for having it.”
I experience a piercing pain through my chest to back whenever I feel extreme emotions. Sometimes the feeling is it's like my chest is being pressed. I couldn't stop picking my skin... damn I didn't even notice I look like I have chicken pox on my legs.
@@leoqq-vd2sb I woke up this morning and have like stomach cramps. You know that feeling when you have menstrual cramps but like not on that area but higher. Do you usually get anxious? 🥺
Looking at this video, I realized that I have the symptoms of anxiety in my everyday life (and a bit of depression), since I was very little. It often occurs sometimes when I'm doing exams or school on a hold. I feel this somewhat pressure to do everything right, and try to make everyone happy. When I do my exams I cry if I get even a 99/100 or 19/20. I also sometimes just talk impulsively at people and just shout or sound rude in the moment when in all seriousness, I really don't mean it. This sometimes happens when I'm talking it my mother and she just thinks I'm being rude, it just make me feel even more tired and angry at myself.. My sleep schedule is perfect as well (7:00/8:00) and wake up on time for school but I always feel this weight of tiredness on me- I also just feel useless at times and when everyone is a sleep I just cry. For no reason at all, and think how I make others feel uncomfortable and how it would be better without me you know? Somehow, I'm also very insecure of my looks and behavior, some times I feel like I do things excessively, like talking or laughing or crying. I over think alot as well too about stupid things I did in the day, even months or years before. My face just rashes up occasionally when I'm stressed and my period is very irregular because of it. Alot of people ask me, " why do you think your so stressed when your so young? " and I honestly do know.. Thank you for reading this vent thingy, I suppose if you want, you can leave some tips for me in the comments. ♥︎ (And also my mother is very nice, I just don't think she understands about this topic alot. )
1) Stomach Problems 2) Forgetfulness 3)Unusual Aches and Pains 4) Rash And Other Skin Conditions 5) Excessive Sleepiness 6) Impulsive Behaviors 7) Feeling Cold While it can be helpful to have a quick list of the symptoms, I’d always recommend watching the full video, because Pysch2gos videos are always helpful and informative, and the quick list doesn’t give an explanation to anything. I hope whoever is reading this has a wonderful day, night, afternoon, or just life!
You're not alone! It's very common. I have been there, and thankfully have now healed. Hoping you can find a resolution to your anxiety problems, too 💛 - Julia
I’ve been not feeling the best lately for a few weeks now but i did not truely understand where it came from. This video made me learn a little bit fore about and i want to say thank you :))
For most of my life I presumed being anxious was the norm. I learned that it is completely unhealthy, so after some research, I adopted the deep breathing method to maintain control of my emotions. It is amazing how this one technique is such a game changer. I recommend it. 😎
before i started taking things for my anxiety, i would get unusual chest pains whenever someone complemented me ( i had very low self esteem so it made me anxious) and i would cry every night because of how much i hated it. Thankfully, it’s not often and quite rare it happens now. Thank you for teaching everyone these symptoms, just so they know it’s a possibility
As a person who often get anxiety, this really often noticed by me. Often forget about what was present, unusual aches here and there but especially on head, stomatch rumble, hard thinking, etc. Thank God now I'm kinda learned more about mental health and still often get anxiety but faster healing process
I’ve recently been experiencing this such as this and smiling depression combined. I push it down under a smile, and I’m a therapist for all my friends. I don’t talk about myself and my problems, so nobody worries. That’s all I need to know in life, is people don’t worry over me and that they are happy. I don’t need to be happy. This is even worse today because the person I’ve practically been with for a while just told me we can’t do this anymore and it hurts. So much. But, I’m putting on a smile like I should and pushing it down because that’s just who i am. I pick at my skin a lot and wonder what would happen if I actually hurt myself, and sometimes I want to, but I don’t. Because then people will worry. So I don’t. Thanks for listening to this rant of mine if you read this
Ty Psych2go, you helped me so much throughout my life! And this I needed. Sadly I related to all of these problems… I do know that I have very good people by my side to help me though!!
I love my therapist because she never really diagnosed me with anything. We both knew that I had anxiety, but instead of her telling me "You have anxiety" she just went straight to finding solutions for it. And they work. She's amazing.
As someone who is currently trying to be a clinician (almost have my bachelors) this exactly how I want to approach therapy. I always noticed people making their diagnoses a part of who they are, their identity.
I'm glad you brought up the stomach problem. It can make u gassy or bloated without really knowing why. I deal with those problems with my stomach every day and it's not easy to control.
Yep i might have anxiety i even forget everything, cant think of anything and stuff And sience i still live with my parents its difficult to explaining to them why and its kinda difficult...... so i have to be by my own And the worse is that i can't share anything to anyone sience i have nobody.
Yeah, having the muscle pains due to anxiety sorta just makes the anxiety even worse, so it's like a constant loop for a little while :/ Recently, I've had really bad neck soreness after an anxiety attack I had the day prior, and that caused me so much anxiety to think about what may have happened to cause it.
I have been there. I used to get a lot of tightness in my shoulders/bottom of neck. I attribute it to the fact that when we are anxious we self consciously tend to stiffen our muscles. I never knew I did this until I started tackling my chronic anxiety and began healing. My advice - next time you are feeling anxious (before the muscle pain starts) just check in with yourself and see if you can notice yourself tensing your muscles. If you do, take a deep breath in and out and allow them to relax. Also, a heating pad can help for when the muscles are already sore. Sending you all the positive vibes 💛 - Julia
The itching thing is absolutely true, it always happens whenever I get nervous knowing I'm about to get into trouble I'll just start getting itches all over my back
I have been diagnosed with a anxiety-depressive disorder several years ago that comes hand in hand with a chronical autoimmune illness so I can relate so much with all that appears on this video
I've been experiencing a little anxiety since about a year or two ago, but then last June I had my first Panic attack and that's when everything changed. My anxiety grew extremely and I really want to talk about it to my parents and get some advice, but all I get back is "You just need to calm down, you're fine" so I just feel helpless and don't know what to do...
I know it really is hard, there is someone that is always there for you tho. You can always talk to, his name Is Jesus Christ 🙏 (also if you want you can rant to me, I'm a good listener)
Keep up the good work! Especially the genshin characters, they make me feel a lot better at just how cute they are!! and the video made me find out that i have anxiety and i tend to not get sleep and overthink plus feeling a lot of pain in my neck and back...but thank you and good job!
I have complex-ptsd, severe major depression and anxiety and ocd. I have rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis and scoliosis plus many more medical conditions. I have 5 of the anxiety symptoms. I'm not impulsive. I was in high alert mode for almost 15 years because I had to protect others and myself. Stress can kill you. I'm speaking from my own experiences.
Idk why, but I've been diagnosed with anxiety and adhd and while I know all of these symptoms, I like watching videos like this because I wasn't diagnosed w this until two years ago (Im 30 now). So I spent a long time being frustrated and angry with myself, making terrible choices.. These videos comfort me so much because for the longest time, I and a lot of people in my life just wrote me off as crazy, lazy, unmotivated, distracted, so on and so forth. I go to therapy but I'm avoiding taking prescribed medication (by choice for personal reasons) so watching videos like these and bi weekly therapy sessions have helped me learn tools to cope, learn to better myself and not fall into to a dark place. I will always work on myself (because that's all we can do) but its crazy the way your life transforms when you start to understand yourself.
I’m not self-diagnosing myself here, but I’ve always been someone who is anxious all the time. I didn’t know these were anxiety symptoms but I experience all of these every day…
Anxiety can manifest in so many different ways, and that's why videos like this are so helpful. You're not alone! Chronic anxiety is very common. I have been there, and thankfully have now healed. Hoping you can find a resolution to your anxiety problems, too 💛 - Julia
To be honest, I'm surprised. I have lived with anxiety for most of my life and I only recently received help. Learning this is so great, I have all the symptoms in the video and didn't know some of them were actually related to it :) I really love your videos, They help me so much in my current recovery. 💖 (I"m sorry for my mistakes. My english isn't that good)
That's really interesting. I always had really soft skin, but in the last 6 months it randomly got itchy for a few days at my hands. Just yesterday I've been wondering, if it was a reaction of my body to my mental state. Turned out that not only that, but also my stomach issues, excessive sleepiness and feeling cold is so. xD
Thank u for your videos. I have some mental problems, I can't talk about it with anyone and even go to psychologist. When I see and hear your videos I feel like there someone + your voice feels like hug. So thank u. Thank for your videos I feel little bit better.
'Dark blue ocean' The room is completely full They noisy chats are filling up every corner But no matter how much I try to speak up No one seems to hear me But it's better in this way, even if I tried to aproach someone They won't understand I never could find someone who can relate So I let it slide, so many years went passing by So many tears I tried to cover up I never knew that I wasn't okay They would always told me it will just fade away At the end of the day it's always me fighting against myself And every attempt is just to take me closer to my dreams Looking at sky everynight was the only thing that made me alive I can't continue living with my soul abandoned on a shelf I'm so done with having to swallow my true self But what can I do? Everything is just so hopeless Everyone has problems (don't they?) Things seem to get more helpless But there's something that never made sense to me How can they always be in the water but not sink? Am I they only one who didn't learn how to swim in a sea of worries? It might be for the best if get to disappear Stop burdening people with my heart, I'm dead weigth Let me sink into the ocean, let me dive to the very end, where hurtful words can't be listened
I think I somehow have excessive anxiety. Since new year, I have excessive sleeping for 2 months already. I know the root of it but can't manage anything since it's from outside factor, people factor, which I can't control it. This problem is very bad for me. I can't work for long hours and it wastes my time a lot. ;_;
Stomach problems - no Forgetfulness - yes Unusual aches and pain- no Rash and other skin conditions - no Excessively sleepiness - no Impulsive behaviors - rarely ever Feeling cold - no
My experience with anxiety (i'm spanish, so my english is not 10/10, sorry). Sometimes I have anxiety attacks (not very often), and it's horrible. I feel my stomach and throat burn, my chest get clogged, I hyperventilate, but at the same time I can't breathe properly, I feel very nauseous, my legs don't respond, I forget what's happening, I need to lie down and sleep. And this attack can last HOURS, like 4h or more (even almost a whole day feeling this discomfort) I didn't used to have anxiety attacks, but now I have more and is so annoying, I started sleeping too much (considering that I used to go to bed at 5 am and now at 10 pm). For all those who suffer from anxiety, you are not alone, I understand you and I am proud of you
I have a lot of these. I suffer from anxiety, depression, and ADHD. It's incredibly annoying and it can destroy my ability to function in the day. I flip-flop between emotions because I'm trying so hard control myself, but little bits of me slip through and show their face. I can have random outbursts of emotions and everyone looks at me like I'm nuts. And I know it's because I've been stuffing my emotions down to keep them from affecting everyone around me
I have at least 2 of these symptoms- one of them is my feet and arms start randomly hurting a lot. I don't know why, but this could be a symptom of anxiety, I have no idea. Ty for making helpful videos! Love ur channel.
i have a TON of symptoms of anxiety- like i mean: 1. overthinking 2. insomnia 3. feeling cold for no reason 4. random aches/pains 5. im extremely forgetful 6. i get weird itches (not much tho) 7. impulsive behaviour (normally im rlly quiet) and its caused me a lot of problems- it really is a pain to have and ive had it for most of my life. im glad people r being more aware tho :)
I have had anxiety symptoms since the age of 8 but I have never been diagnosed for anything. I always thought I had ADHD because of my forgetfulness and hard time paying attention but I have learned those are also symptoms of anxiety. I love your videos thank you for making such helpful videos.
Some people laugh for some reasons of anxiety that they think is too shallow, and I hate them for that. They didn't really understood some sides that sometimes we couldn't really forced or stopped ourselves from worrying too much.
This personally is really ironic bc I’m actually going though most of these problems related to the video… example I have eczema and get breakouts when I get really stressed or anxiety. I didn’t really think it was a big deal until your body is so use to feeling anxiety and stress that one doesn’t really notice . I started doing yoga and drinking teas every night and that’s helped ALOT.
I get anxiety, I had it for 3 days strait one time and I honestly thought I was going to die... I would dig my nails into the side of my arms and stomach due to the resulting pain from my anxiety and I'd breathe heavily, and it would feel like I was getting no oxygen- But I can calm myself a little better when my anxiety does attack.
I suffer from severe anxiety and severe depression however I may stop watching this channel because I reach out for help and no one ever contacts me I'm giving it one more chance
I've been diagnosed with anxiety (I wasn't filled with the details of it, which I feel is for the better so I don't stress nyself more) but I never took into consideration that aches, pains and rashes could be linked to it. I actually get lots of back pains due to my scoliosis, though at stressful/nervous times, it feels as though my feet are on fire and I actually do get rashes sometimes, though I've just associated it with my excema or a skin product since my skin is sensitive. So, thank you for this video, it actually taught me a lot about anxiety even though I have it myself! The irony-
I experienced all of the symptoms and lately I th8nk I'm really going through anxiety. But my family especially my parents sees it as overreacting When pandemic happened, that's time my anxiety worsen. Everyday feels like the same.
I'm quite the anxious person, I used to get headaches when I was in "crit" situations, then it changed to nausea. Anxiety sure plays weird tricks on you.
figiting can also be a sign of anxiety, people somethimes will figit when they are feeling anxies or afriad, sometimes people will figit when they are so tired that they can't sit still
The itchiness is wat really hit me since when i get really anxious my entire body gets itchy and when i try to scratch it, it starts going somewhere else
Am I the only one who watches Psych2Go when I feel anxious and or depressed?- I think it’s cause I like knowing others feel the same way I do. Not only that, the narrators voice is always so calm and gentle
I’d like to add one - frequent urination. A lot of people I’ve read about on Reddit agrees on the fact that a lot of us need to go to the toilet pretty often and it might be a sign of anxiety.
