while facing emotions that they are not quite capable of dealing with, is it common for NTs to have those emotions manifest themselves physically?
to give my own example, after i lost my stepson, my mornings have become a ritual of waking up looking for him, realizing i can't reach him, followed up by panic attacks (according to my doctor), which i had to research to confirm (i don't trust my doctor). sometimes i had them a few times a day.
i have had nothing of this sort before, no anxiety disorder, nothing heredity to indicate this.. as far as i can tell its just an emotional situation i can't mentally contain so it manifested itself physically.
i am wondering if similar or perhaps more subtle physical manifestations of new emotional state one isn't equipped to deal with are common for NTs in particular?

edit: i may have worded this wrong so just to be clear: i have lost my stepson because my marriage failed and i have no legal right for him and can't demand any access or visitation rights, he is alive and well with my ex-wife. now let's focus on the question at hand.
