It's not like that. There is definitely something damaged or some wires crossed. Stress and anxiety make it worse, but it's still there all the time regardless.
Full deep breaths cause all kinds of aches to shoot around my torso and laughing is outright painful. The skin on my hands shriveled so much they look like 60 yr old hands. I have head aches all the time, whereas before I never got them. At anytime I can feel my heartbeat throughout my body, especially in my hands and neck. My feet get so cold now I feel like i could get frostbite in a 70F room. Hard exertion quickly brings me to a point where I almost faint. I get dizzy periods usually for at least a few hours a day.
Also this year was hardly stressful/anxiety inducing for me, at least on the day to day level. Other periods of my life were orders of magnitude worse with typical stress/anxiety symptoms. Nothing like this.
