A weird question...?!


Question:

A weird question...?

Let me explain first. For some reason, here lately I've been really jumpy. Simple things; like when it's quiet in the house and my phone rings it makes me jump. I've also noticed something really peculiar--when this happens I get this really strange metallic taste in my mouth. I've never had that before, but sometimes it's really stronge and the taste lingers unless I brush my teeth right afterwords. What could that be?

Just for reference; I only seem to get that taste after the startled jolt, as it were.


Answers:

The jumpiness sounds like anxiety. The metallic taste you're getting right after is adrenaline. Adrenaline comes from your pancreas and aids the body in the "fight or flight" defense mechanism.
