Can worrying too much cause breathing problems, chest pains, and gastrointestinal problems?


Issue
I've been worrying about things, and experiencing all of these. Why does worrying do this, if it does?

Best Tip
most definitely yes.....don't walk but run to a good internist or psychiatrist. I have all of the above throughout my adult life......not forgetting anti anxiety meds makes all the difference. Have to confess that in the past I used to call an ambulance just knowing I was having a heart attack...now I know what to look for in helping the anxiety and stress. Source(s): lexapro is an anti depressant I take.....not for anxiety....I don't think????????

Others
Yes. It is the physical reaction to all your stress, like uclers and acene can be caused by stress. You need to relax and find ways to destress or you will end up in the hospital.
Yes, stress can cause that.
Yes, its called an anxiety attack.
yes ... it can!!!

You may be all keyed up with nothing to fight or flee and no way to turn off the stress chemicals. You become a ticking bomb that is not allowed to explode-consequently, you may implode. If this happens frequently or over a long period of time, it can have a serious effect on your health.

Every system in your body is affected by worry. In addition to raising blood pressure and increasing blood clotting, worry can prompt your liver to produce more cholesterol, all of which can raise your risk of heart attack and stroke. Muscle tension can give rise to headaches, back pain, and other body aches. Worry can also trigger an increase in stomach acid and either slow or speed up muscle contractions in your intestines, which can lead to stomach aches, constipation, diarrhea, gas or heartburn.

Worry can affect your skin (rash or itch). It can impact your respiratory system and aggravating asthma. Growing evidence even suggests that chronic worry can compromise your immune system, making you more vulnerable to bacteria, viruses, perhaps even cancer.
