stress symptoms for many years, all mentally?

Hey there,

I have the following stress symptoms for several years already (almost every day):

• nervousness
• fatigue
• tension
• shaky
• jittery
• irritability
• restlessness
• sweating
• concentration lacks
• dizzy and dazed

Basically all symptoms, related to stress... I also feel the symptoms when I don't have stress from the outside, like working or studying stress. I am sitting at home and feel stressed. The stress increases during the day, until it gets WAY BETTER in the night. For a long time it was suspected all to be mentally, but my current therapist suspects that there is something physical involved too.

My thyroid was suspected to be the reason, since it would fit a lot. But in the last years it was checked regularly. The TSH value was sometimes to high, sometimes okay. But besides that, the doctors said it was okay. Since I suffer a lot, I wonder what I can do to find out if there could be something physical too. Does anyone have any ideas which health conditions could produce such symptoms too?

Thank you a lot.
