Anxiety of all sorts can be caused by something so simple as a chemical imbalance. Nervousness doesn't rightly need a reason, per se, but nonetheless, it has one—if not a conventional one.

I personally think, that there is always a reason. We don't feel emotions without a reason. Mostly we are nervous because we are scared. We worry about the close future or we are not self-confident in what we are doing right now. Sometimes we are nervous, when we think to much what other people expect from us and if we do everything right. Nobody knows 100% what happen in the future and we don't know always, what other people think or how they feel about us. This makes us uncertain. We struggle. We get nervous. My tipp: Think and try to feel if you have any thoughts or feelings in this directions and if they are TRUE.

Perhaps, you might not feel nervous at the moment. But we often carry this burden of past thing that made us feel nervous like a deadline for a huge project that you thought you were not going to be able to hand in on time. I recommend writing both past and future things that have/had made you feel nervous. Then cross out all the things that you already finished! This helps that part of your brain that's making you feel nervous, feel a little better! So you can feel totally stress free in every moment in you day!

Sometimes as humans, we tend to stress, and sometimes stress builds up due to overthinking to nothing at all. Our brain might produce too much Cortisol (stress hormone) and it can cause us to develop chronic stress. It is good to talk with your doctor or talk it out with someone to help you better understand.

I also tend to be nervous for seemingly no reason (e.g. in certain social situations) and it has gotten to a point where I would freeze up or start trembling in public. It has really interfered with my life at times. I have recently been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, which explains a lot of these symptoms. I don't mean to diagnose you in any way, but do you think that you may be experiencing some type of anxiety? What types of situations do you find particularly more uncomfortable than others? It may help if you speak with a primary care physician or therapist if you believe that this nervousness is interfering with your life, so that they can help you discover ways to reduce your nervousness.

Being nervous for a unknown reason can be due to something that happened in the past. For example, if you had a history of feeling nervous and tense. There was probably something that caused you to be nervous back then, and maybe it caused you to be that nervous that it is still affecting you till this day.

For some people, their mind and body just release more chemicals that make them anxious. Talk to your doctor if you really feel you are getting anxious for no reason. Other times, there are triggers to watch out for that happen in our lives that trigger anxious thoughts and feelings.

When I experience nervousness for no reason it's usually due to one of three things: hormones, too much caffiene/not enough healthy food or water, or not enough exercise. It seems like not providing for myself in those ways strips me of my coping skills and I can't handle even the most minor stressors. Anything, especially jealousy triggers my fight or flight response.
