It's interesting that the article mentions the immune system, because I've always considered if allergies are the physical equivalent to mental anxieties.

That's a great insight. I never experienced chest caving anxiety ever, until I did once. Now it's much more likely.

On the flip side there is treatment to allergies, controlled small doses to triggers. I think anxiety may work similarly. For example, public speaking more often with smaller audiences will reduce initial anxiety in the long run.
