What Are The Symptoms Of Having Anxiety?

hello. for about 1.5 months, i've had several symptoms and no diagnosis. my hands, feet, and knees are very cold to touch, i have significant negative afterimages in vision and have become sensitive to bright light, and there is tingling in my left arm. some of these symptoms have reduced in severity over this time. at the onset, sitting for any length of time caused my legs to 'go to sleep'. have seen a doctor who tells me it's anxiety related. while i was panicky at the beginning of this adventure, i'm not nearly as worried. the symptoms persist, which makes me think it's not anxiety.

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

All symptoms, that you have mentioned, are not due to anxiety. Due to nerve compression, some time cold or hot sensation and leg go to sleep kind of symptoms happens. Other are anxiety symptoms. In that case, either you can try relaxation exercise or can go for benzodiazepine on sos basis.

Thanks
