Shakiness

Is shaking a symptom of anxiety? It literally feels like my sugar levels are right down even if I eat nothing helps 😁😁

[dizzychar]

Have you had your bloods checked?

I sometimes shake when I'm anxious, I was like it in the doctors yesterday x

[Hidden in reply to dizzychar]

Yeh I've had loads of blood taken and a sugar one too and they were all normal..it's really weird and scary!! X

[dizzychar in reply to Hidden]

It's not nice at all is it

Do you get any other symptoms? X

[Hidden in reply to dizzychar]

Yeh I get muscle spasms aswell tooth grinding.. Random pains and chest pain and sometimes I get the feeling I can't swollow and that sends me into a panick 🙈 X

[dizzychar in reply to Hidden]

I get those too and loads more, I grind my teeth.

Are you getting any help from doctors or therapy? X

[Hidden in reply to dizzychar]

The doctor gave me venlafaxine but I'm not taking them.. And I had cbt but my therapist cut me off she said she felt I didn't need to carry on with anymore! X

[dizzychar in reply to Hidden]

Any reason why your not taking them?

That's not right, if you felt that you needed the help then she should have continued. Can you see someone else? X

[Hidden in reply to dizzychar]

I read the side effects 🙈 I know I shouldn't but I tried one sertraline and I didn't sleep for 2 days.. It did help me I do think I needed more.. I'm going back to the doctors tomorrow.. I've been taking magnesium which has really helped me aswell x

[Hidden in reply to lauren23]

Hey sister!! You okay? How have you been? You know I think I've always been a shaky person but now I have health anxiety it really bothers me it does calm down abit after I eat but I can still feel it 🙈🙈 x

[lauren23 in reply to Hidden]

Lol xx

[Hidden in reply to lauren23]

Omg I was actually reading about that stuff it's ment to work really well!! Let me know how you get on with it.. I read your post you put up about post partum.. Have you seen doctor? Reading that reminded me of Stacey on eastenders xx

[lauren23 in reply to Hidden]

I'm gonna book appointment with doc I have been like that since second baby I also have mania episodes where I'm fine and nothing will get me down then after a couple of hours I'm back to been an emotional wreck the other day I was walking to the shop and this voice inside my head told me that somebody was following me home and all the way home I was constantly looking over my shoulder only to find there was no one behind me it really scared me

[Hidden in reply to lauren23]

Wow that's so sad 😢 Yeh you get your self to the doctors asap and get that sorted 😘😘 xx

[lauren23 in reply to Hidden]

Yeah I will get my self sorted. Xx

What happened with your cbt therapist I thought you was getting better with your health anxiety.

[Hidden in reply to lauren23]

I was doing really well and then it's creeped back and I don't really use the teqnique they taught me to do.. But I've been doing it now and I'm a lot better I don't think I'm ill I just don't like the shakes lol x

[lauren23 in reply to Hidden]

I tried bachs rescue remedy and it does help with some symptoms it doesnt make me think im healthy tho I still think im ill I just dont get alot of physical symptoms what teqnique did they teach you. Xx

It must be a family thing!! My brother just came to my house and I told him that I was going to the doctors because I shake and he said I shake to.. Showed me his hands and they are worse than mine!! I feel relieved ☺️

[allnew2me in reply to Hidden]

So it's true..It is good to talk. Had you not have spoken to him you'd still be worrying now. Glad your feeling relieved xx

[Hidden in reply to allnew2me]

Omg I know I'm a nightmare I get scared to say what's wrong with me coz I think they'll be like shut up.. But now I think they are actually trying to help me! ☺️ X

[allnew2me in reply to Hidden]

They aren't gonna like you feeling like you do and them not being able to help you to fight this so they will want to help you in any other way they can so that you can fight this. Itwon't seem to them like they are doing much at all but to you it will make such a difference talking to them and knowing they are there like the chat with your brother. He won't really know how much he just helped you no matter how much you tell him but you do xx

[Hidden in reply to allnew2me]

I know just hearing those words I shake to was an instant relief and then seeing he wasn't just saying it to shut me up he shakes way more than me 🙈 It's really comforting talking to people about this and knowing there are people who are like me! Thankyou so much xx

[MrsB08]

Very tired but not too bad...yet. How's you xxx

[Hidden in reply to MrsB08]

I'm okay today Thankyou.. Probably coz I know I'm going to the doctors 😂!! No I've been doing really well thankyou xx

[MrsB08]

Aw that's excellent honey.... Well chuffed for u xxx

I shake too and I get the sugar drop feeling often as well, I also have had tests and all fine. I look at everyone's hands to see if they shake I'm kind of obsessed with it lol

[Hidden in reply to Aazz]

Omg I look at people aswell to see if they shake 😂 It's horrible I'm literally going mad!! X
