Anxiety and body tension

[guynfl2chat]

Has anyone experienced increased body tension from anxiety. I have had panic attacks and anxiety for many years. A few weeks ago my entire body tensed up and it felt very uneasy. It's nerve and muscle tension all over. It continues to happen periodically and I try to calm down but it does make me more anxious. I am trying a magnesium powder to try and unwind.

Quite amazing what anxiety does to your body. I have points wherei cant even walk my legs seem to go numb andi cannot walk, sometimes my neck shakes so violently and get pains all over my body. Try not to worry darling have a chat with your doc to put your mind at rest. good luck x.

Well it's worse when I don't take any meds. It's just strange how my anxiety entered a new stage. I see my doctor every 4 months or so. It's probably just another thing I have to learn to work thru as I continue to balance my anxiety. This past year has been so challenging and obviously we all have to find ways to cope and our body reacts. Have you tried magnesium? I find it helps a bit.

Ihavejust sent for magnesium i also take escitralopram and it is very good

I tried lexapro (escitralopram) it didn't agree with me. I am doing TMS treatment now. It's a brain magnet Stimulator treatment. You can Google it

it very good Guy but the price isn't i am looking at nhs at the moment but i don't think i will qualify for it.

Tms is challenging. You have ups and downs with the treatment but not as bad as the meds. I am still in the beginning and have a way to go.
