Worry perhaps: Worry, a verbal/linguistic, cognitive process in an attempt to cope with anxiety, is associated with physical symptoms such as fatigue, difficulty concentrating, irritability, and muscle tension. Our feelings and behaviors are influenced by our thoughts so it is quite possible for physical symptoms to worsen as a result of what we are anxious about.
