Yes, it truly can: Anxiety can produce all types of symptoms, including physical ones like heart palpitations. Also there can be worry, panic, and overwhelming fear. Dry mouth; fast heart rate; rapid shallow breathing; dizziness; nausea; choking feelings; trembling; pins and needles sensation; etc. See your doctor for a medical evaluation; there are effective anxiety treatments with psychiatrists & therapists.
