anxiety without being anxious
So im just going to lay it all on the table right now. i have some concerns that my anxiety is not really anxiety. i have many symptoms of anxiety.
tightness around the head
tingling in the hands and feet
electric shock feeling on the skin that tend to feel cold
a feeling that a certain part of my body is cold/tingling
bulging eyes
numbness/weakness in limbs
my concern is that these things arent anxiety because i get them when im not having a panic attack. i mean i worry about it when i feel it but i dont hyperventilate or anything. does anybody have these or others when their not having a panic attack because if you do i would really like to know. thanks

Many people suffer anxiety without having actual 'panic attacks'. Their anxiety may get pretty severe at times, moreso then normal, but not necessarily so severe to be panic.
Hopefully you have sought medical advice about these symptoms you experience to rule out other ailments as the cause.
