I know there's many reasons for fibromyalgia but is Anxeity one of them?? Is there a correlation between anxeity and depression causing fibromyalgia 🙃😕

I don't know if those things cause fibromyalgia but I do know that fibromyalgia causes anxiety and depression.

So I've dealt with fibromyalgia for 7 years, I'm at the point where the shower water hurts my head. I've had all types of injuries only because I'm still trying to clean houses. But I've experienced open rooms mental delusion, anxiety, depression, I now have chronic pain, so the answer to your question is any type of cut, bite, bruise I even swelling from just running into something all that can cause flare ups.
I can no longer put makeup on let alone paint my fingernails, certain perfumes irritate my skin so that causes a flare up I've had to change my shoes three times out the year because of the flare up. Skechers seem to be the only shoe that is comfort to my feet. I have a blessed day! Try to stay comfortable and ease your mind so that the mental stress doesn't affect your fibromyalgia we are warriors!

I don't think anxiety causes fibromyalgia. I think the underlying trauma that caused the fibromyalgia also causes the anxiety and depression. This is why these three occur together. My opinion.
