Sometimes when I get anxious, my feet turn really cold. Like ice cold. Even on an extremely hot summer day.
Does it happen to anyone else?

No, I usually get dizzy. That's my major symptom for anxiety.
How strange is that-ice cold feet? I hope you have warm socks. Cold feet?

No, I usually have a lot of leg bouncing, fidgeting with stuff in my hands, and increased heart beat.

Though from what I understand of biofeedback - when you are relaxed something about blood being close to the skin and when anxious it restricts away from skin...

It happens to me....feet and hands. And they turn purple. All from anxiety. I don't take any meds, so nothing like that could be causing it.

HI!
Cold hands and feet are a symptom of anxiety! This was explained to me by my therapist, psyciatrist and my neurologist....there is really nothing that can be done for it.
Take care,
Daisies

Hey... strange, I never thought about that before. I often have very cold feet and I'll have to pay attention to see if I'm feeling anxious at the time. I usually bounce my leg like mad, and tap my fingers, etc.

Strange, I have the opposite. My hands get hot and so do my feet, and not cold sweats - I feel really hot, even in the winter - this always happens just before and attack. I guess we are all different!
