Your anxiety which is often caused by stressful situations will exert symptoms of differing kinds. What you need to learn is what all your symptoms are big and small and the triggers that initiate each one of them. Often one symptom is triggered by something specific, while others are triggered by something totally different. Keep a log any time you have an attack, or an anxiety and be prepared to write the symptom down shortly after it occurs along with the trigger that set it off.
