Hey, for the last 6 months I have been under alot of stress and anxiety, I have an anxiety disorder and recently alot of stuff has been getting to me, to the point where I always think something is worng with me, at first my throat started to hurt, then my head and now I always think my lymph-nodes are swollen and my legs and arms feel weak and I will just get tired during the day, now it feels like my knees and elbows are always hurting, and can stress make your skin dry? Im always scared that I might have an std, can someone help me please?? By the way im only 18, does anyone think this all could be from anxiety or stress??

Damn scared, I know what you mean, when I was 19 I would always stress and think I was dying and something was wrong with me, I would constantly check my pulse and sometimes say this is it to myself thinking ill drop dead right there. I believe it his definately anxiety issues because now im 22 been under alot of stress and those feelings have came back except im thinking about more crazier sh*t than before. Dr said I was obsessing and had real bad panic attacks, turned down the zoloft and am trying to work it out on my own. I beleive my brain will fix itself eventually.
