Can anxiety cause a dry mouth?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes. During an anxiety attack, you are more likely to breathe through your mouth. All of that air passing through your oral cavity can dry up your saliva.

View allI've been dealing with some anxiety issues and I've noticed a habit of mine that's been concerning me. I tend to shake both my legs when I'm sitting cross-legged, and I can't help but wonder if it's causing me harm. After I'm done with the shaking, I sometimes start to sweat and feel pretty tired. Should I be worried about how this might be affecting my heart or maybe my overall health?
That is called restless leg syndrome,visit Psychiatrist for appropriate help.and no it doesnt cause any effect on heart
