Can you please explain why physical symptoms show up after your anxiety attack?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Related: Anxiety responses cause a wide range of physical symptoms directly and indirectly. We evolved to be sensitive and reactive to perceived threat so our bodies react strongly. Anxiety attacks mobilize this further. Physical symptoms can cause and be an effect of anxiety.
