Hi does anyone else get a metallic taste when they are not anxious? I have had it for a little while now and it comes and goes, but is also there when I'm not anxious.

    Hi- yes, I've experienced this a few times. Been suffering from anxiety for nearly 5 months now. It is quite disconcerting but I can match it up with a sudden increase in heart rate. Sometimes not, but anxiety seems to mess with us so much and is so random that I can never be sure; I can however say it's is a symptom (classic one) of anxiety from what I have read/experienced.
