A member asked:
Are there any physical impacts (in terms of longevity) of living under extreme anxiety?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Extreme Anxiety: Yes, anxiety can cause harm to your body. The stress leads to higher blood pressure, faster heart beat, shallower breathing, and other biological changes in your body. It is recommended that you consult with a Clinical Psychologist to help you with your symptoms and then a Psychiatrist could add additional help with medication.
