| Re: Is this Anxiety?
This does sound like anxiety...the standing in line at the store problem is super common for anxiety sufferers. I think the clumsiness happens because we are so tensed up our muscles make our movements harder. There are medicines and therapy you could see doctors about. If I were you, I would start with reading some books on anxiety and panic first, so you can really understand what is happening to you. Many of these books will also give you some helpful techniques so that you can help yourself to relax. Starting college, or anything new that is important, is always a little nerve-racking. Be sure to always breathe properly, deeply and slowly, so that you don't hyperventilate...this is a huge problem for us and much of the reason we experience physical symptoms from our worrying.
