    The more anxious I get, the worse my dysphoria is. Does this happen to anyone else?

    For me it's sort of the opposite, when I get dysphoric I get more anxious.

    Yeah, definitely. I think it's because the more anxious I get the more conscious I am of everything, including my body. Plus I get a bunch of repetitive thoughts so it's really hard to stop thinking about my body if I start.
