Why don't I get the symptoms most commonly described, like clammy hands and a tight chest? Is it my adrenal system or something?

The simple answer is that everyone experiences panic differently. Not everyone has every symptom. Not everyone has all of the most common symptoms. Some people don't have any of the common symptoms. You have to listen to your body and respond accordingly.

Everyone is different. Everyone learns differently. They know that they have specific triggers, environmental exposures and genetic composition. Everyone has genes that get exposed across different conditions. Sometimes those genes activate. Sometimes they don't. Sometimes trauma can have adverse impact as well. Based on conditioning, different people have different activation of their flight or fight response. Other times, mental health impacts physical symptons and vice versa. Two people could have the same genes but varying environments, triggers, scenarios, experiences, knowledge, etc. The more you study, the more you learn about the complexity of the human condition and mind, including neuroplasticity.

If it were your adrenal system the parasympathetic responses you mention would be more prevalent. You must be speaking to anxiety. As a chronic anxiety sufferer myself I rarely experience these symptoms either. That being said the anxiety is certainly real. Symptom clusters are rarely 100 percent applicable to each person.

Every person is different and experiences things differently. That's why they call them "common symptoms" and not "end-all-be-all symptoms"

Remember, not everyone will have the same symptoms! Everyone is different. Is this related to panic attacks or general anxiety?

There are hundreds of symptoms of anxiety and although the most common signs are clammy hands, fast heart rate, shortness of breath, etc., there are different symptoms for different people.

You can look into your adrenal system or ask your doctor if you are worried about it. It may be just anxiety but it is always good to just safe(: good luck
