An anxiety-and-body worksheet records physical observations, context, and function without concluding that anxiety caused them. A prior anxiety diagnosis does not mean every new physical symptom has the same cause.
Work through these questions: Trembling
Completed fictional example — SAMPLE DATA
This example shows how to fill in the form. It is not a real person’s record, a diagnosis, a validated assessment or a promised outcome. Use your own observations and appropriate professional advice for actual health concerns.

Completed example
| Question or field | Fictional completed example |
|---|---|
| Physical observation? | Trembling |
| Context? | Before a presentation |
| Duration? | Estimate rather than repeatedly time it |
| Daily impact? | Avoided a meeting |
| Care question? | How should recurring symptoms be assessed? |
A worked situation: Trembling
Fictional example. A reader notices trembling before presentations and writes down the timing and daily impact. New chest pain would change the next step to urgent assessment, rather than another worksheet session.
Keep symptoms and interpretations in different fields
The physical-observation cell describes what happened; the context cell describes what was happening around it. Do not fill the cause with "anxiety" merely because anxiety is the topic of this worksheet. Record what is uncertain and what you want assessed. The completed form supports a conversation; it cannot rule out another cause or replace urgent help.
