How anxiety affects our Health

I had to give up my teaching career because of stress. I was very sick with high blood-pressure and my normal female cycle was badly disrupted. I've had to learn how to keep calm and controlled and not allow myself to get stressed. I'm a lot happier and healthier now!

It is too sad to see that many are being bombarded with all the stresses in life. It is really true that when you are stressed the optimum condition of your physical, mental, emotional and psychological status is greatly affected. That is why, we should not deal on it for too long find a way to divert your attention submit your self into relaxation techniques or maybe, faced the stress immediately so that i will be over as soon as possible. I am still lucky at this moment because I was not able to experience my worst stress ever but i am preparing myself for that.

I agree that anxiety affects our health. There are many symptoms of anxiety. I know some people believe that it is just in our heads, meaning we just think we have it but that there is no such thing. I don't believe that. I have a bad habit of gritting my teeth, my jaws will start to hurt when I do this. I do it bad when I have anxiety. I can go for months or years and not do it then when I start having anxiety I will grit my teeth, especially at night. I know there are other symptoms as well such as twitching your thumb.

immune in our body decreases, because of anxiety. also, our chakras get frustrated. hence the answer(answer is not complete; but i know this much). due to anxiety, our sleep becomes less and less, which in turn affects health.

Anxieties affects our body so much, because in our subconscious mind it triggers a lot of stress.

it affect our health by not eating healthy foods, stress, no proper sleeping, and soloing problem that may affect your mind and body .

Something to do with blood preassure. It's bad to be stresssed, it affects the blood and everything. Sometimes we just need to let go and ansiety is the opposite of that.

Yes, stress plays a big part in weakening our immune system, consequently making us sick. So, we should see to it that we are able to manage our stress well. Learn how to prioritize your works, so that it will not overwhelm and stress you.

As you say it can.. but there is also an other side. People who keep their anger inside, are not telling the truth because they fear the reaction of someone else, people who wear a mask, people who always try to stay friendly, people who say they will forgive but in reality they can't because this takes time, people who don't speak out, all those people who keep their feelings inside or hide them because some friend, doctor, god tells them so get sick too. Feelings, frustration, anger has to come out and be expressed otherwise you will make your body sick. Same happens to you if you try to live with... this will cost you a lot of energy all that trying. I think not eating or eating a lot or not taking care of yourelf is not as dangerous as poisoning your own body because you always need to be friendly and kind and attentive and understanding. Heartattacks and cancer are illnesses that we create that way same with depressions. It doesn't only depend on your character and dna how many healthy problems you are able to avoid, also the power of positive thinking (plus improving yourself and putting yourself at the first place) is necessary to keep yourself in good shape.
