Sure: It is amazing the wide range of things that anxiety can lead to. That is because we are all so different in many ways. For some it increases appetite - others can't eat a thing. Some sleep too much, others can't get a wink. Some get irritable itching for a fight, some withdraw. Seek low cost or free tx asap. Many drs will find a way.
