Anxiety can cause us to hyperventalate which throws off the ratios of oxygen and carbon dioxide in our blood. This is what produces the feeling of numbness we often feel in our fingers and around our mouths, our hearts to beat faster and dizziness and probably contributes to that sense of derealization.
