Do I have anxiety?

Whenever I get nervous, I experience a set of symptoms that I find hard to describe. I can't keep my legs still and feel the need to constantly stretch, while I get very strong waves of tingling sensations from my stomach all the way to my leg. My hands feel very cold, but I also feel a little hot and sweaty during this. Am I just overly nervous?

Do you drink lots of coffee, chocolates or caffeine foods?

I hope you are not taking lots of coffee or chocolates or lots of anything that contains the caffeine. I think making a habit to take small sips of water over the day, helps to focus and relax, especially at times when you are nervous. And always remember If one has to make the right choices and decisions, has to be done in a state of mind that is not excited, rather calm. So, try to take control of your emotions and you will learn that in time to come. Stretching is okay, for you make add taking some deep breaths to it as well. P.S Exercise Regularly! And smoking makes it worse. JUst in case, So
Take care!
