Anxiety, Stress, Depression...

Hi Everyone -

I could use some help from you. First, let me tell you that I've been to every doctor under the sun and I've been tested inside and out. I could use some reassurance from those of you who have experienced or know someone who has gone through anxiety, stress, and depression. Can it really manifest itself physically? I've been taking care of a sick family member for a few months and now I'm finding myself without an appetite lately. I'm losing weight. I ache from time to time and can't help but worry that something is wrong with me physically, even though I've had dozens of medical tests. I'm going to get another CT scan even though I had one last year and I just had ultrasounds, etc... Anyway, can stress really do this to the body? Wipe out my appetite and make me feel this worried? I feel so out of control. I recently starting seeing a therapist to try to help, but I am still so worried. Can any of you offer any insight? I really appreciate your time. Be well. xo
