I am curious to know what symptoms/fears others with anxiety suffer from? My two are dizziness and breathing. For a while last year, I would have dizzy spells and realize I wasnt breathing!! For some strange reason, I would be holding my breath. Those have passed for the most pat, but I still have a minor fear (it used to be irrational and out of control) of being dizzy. Ironic, I know. Anyone else have these or other symptoms?

Obsessive, racing thoughts, nausea.

Cognative behavioral therapy can help a lot with teaching you to avoid negative ways of dealing with anxiety, like holding your breath.

Mostly obsessive thinking for me. If my hormones are really out of whack (once every few months), I experience a weird mix of deep depression (borderline suicidal), mild agoraphobia, and insomnia due to obsessive thinking and hardcore emotion/mood swings.
