Symptoms of Anxiety Do Have Physical CausesQuestion: Symptoms of anxiety? I'm sure my symptoms have a physical cause. How can THAT be caused by anxiety?! Answer: If tests reveal no physical ailment to cause the symptoms you are experiencing, and doctors tell you that these signs are caused by anxiety, this does not mean that there is no physical cause. Your symptoms do have a physical cause. In the body, anxiety is a physical reaction that has very real physical effects. Symptoms of anxiety are very real, and do have physical origins. One of the functions of our sympathetic nervous system is to keep us alive if there is danger that we must fight off or escape from. You have probably heard of the "fight-or-flight" response - this is exactly the response that the sympathetic nervous system brings on.Any time the sympathetic nervous system is activated, we experience feelings of anxiety (and get symptoms of panic and anxiety). Imagine the way you feel right before competing in a sporting event: heart racing, maybe you're a bit shaky, you feel excited. Excitement is one form of anxiety. If we can physically run from danger, run a race, compete in a sport, etc, the body performs optimally because of the sympathetic nervous system.
