According to doctors my anxiety has been so bad it's causing health issues and pains. According to my psych, they're all wrong. I've been to doctor after doctor and no one listens. Should I just give up and accept it as anxiety?

Don’t give up. You know your body the best. Keep trying, lots of providers are trial and error until you find the right one. My anxiety triggers a lot of my health issues, and can contribute to the symptoms you’re having. Ask for genetic testing when you find a psychiatrist if they offer it, I tried this and found the medications I was once on reacted horrible with me. It showed what medications would work with my body versus what wouldn’t. The first step to treatment is symptoms and triggers. Write down what causes it, even in your phone. You have to get to the root to make something new. 💕

My anxiety triggered my tachycardia, so yes it absolutely can cause some health issues, but not all. Also it can exacerbate symptoms

Pursue both improving your anxiety and looking into why these other symptoms are popping up. If you find a way to get your anxiety to a more manageable level and the pain and health issues are still just as prevalent, you have your proof. Dont give up.
If that feels wrong to you then keep asking. I know mine is not anxiety alone and I am in the process of trying to figure of what else. Keep advocating for you ❤️
