Unexplained muscle tension
Rapid heartbeat for no apparent reason
Digestive issues
Sudden sweating or trembling
Find yourself overthinking every decision, big or small
Feel exhausted from constantly trying to predict and control outcomes
Have difficulty concentrating or experiencing persistent brain fog
Feel a sense of impending doom or unexplained dread
