Anxiety is one of the most common issues people face today. With the stress of work, relationships, family, friends and your own aspirations it can all become too much at times. While this is totally normal there is sometimes a different underlying cause. It has been shown that a thyroid disorder may be related to anxiety. Let’s go into more detail on the symptoms and find out if it is something you need to watch out for.

Hyperthyroidism is a  condition that is caused by the overproduction of thyroxine by the thyroid. This condition has a number of physical symptoms that you will notice. It can increase your metabolism, resulting in weight loss, it also may cause you to become overheated throughout the day. If you are feeling anxious and have these symptoms then maybe it is relevant to you.

The reason hyperthyroidism also has an impact on anxiety is because there are receptors in the brain linked to the thyroid when they are overactive it causes stress, constant nerves, irritability and of course anxiety. 

The thyroid can become inflamed for no real reason so if you feel this is happening to you it is no cause for concern. It can also be a result of Grave’s disease. In addition, it has been shown to be prone to women who have recently given birth. 

If you are feeling anxious and have never discussed it with a doctor before it is a good idea to get a full check-up. While you can battle anxiety head-on, it is better to address the underlying symptoms. If a thyroid or some other factor is causing your anxiety then you will likely be put on a treatment plan that could get you back to feeling normal in a number of weeks. In short, if you are anxious, seeing your doctor is never a bad idea and you are not overthinking it.
