Can anxiety make u feel like u have to yawn--The sensation feels like the need to yawn, but sometimes a yawn is not needed but the sensation is there???

If you're on a med, it could be a side effect. However, it could be an anxiety or stress related thing. When I'm nervous, I yawn a lot. I also do it when I'm uncomfortably cold!!! It was worse when I started my antidepressant.
