Why is it with my anxiety when i freak out i tend to yawn a lot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yawning is the: body's way of increasing oxygen intake. "Freaking out" can be a sign of lack of emotional intelligence. Please see the work of Daniel Goleman. Visit your doc for a check up to rule out medical conditions. Peace and good health.
