[Hidden]

Yes I get them everywhere, stomach, legs, butt, chest, back, arms. I get them daily but don’t let them worry me I know it’s nothing serious.

[shirls34 in reply to Hidden]

thanks for reply and do you mind me asking how long are you getting this altogether.

[Hidden in reply to shirls34]

I’ve had it over a month now, I get them daily throughout the day, also get a vibrating sensation in my feet also.

I have had anxiety for over 35 years. It manifested in GAD. I have extreme health anxiety especially heart related. Anyhow a couple of years back I started getting jerks in my legs at night as soon as I closed my eyes. I also noticed they got worse if I was particularly anxious. Over the last 3 years I had to have two lots of surgeries which caused major anxiety issues (both times my daughter slept at the side of me)Since then the twitches in body and jerking of legs are more extreme. I thought it was a type of restless legs but after seeing a neurologist and an mri (why do we do this to ourselves) I was diagnosed as having a hypersensitive nervous system! No s@&! We are complex beings and having anxiety makes us even more so. However we are stronger than we could ever believe. Remember that x

thanks so much for reply so these twitches are anxiety ..I didn't think was possible ..would you have every day

[kickit in reply to shirls34]

Hi yes I get them every day. However I am trying not to give them much attention. They are part of me and make up who I am but I will not let them get to me as I know they are relatively harmless x

[Amarie37]

I recently started getting them its sooo scary to me how do you guys cope?

[shirls34]

thanks for reply and how long have you had this

[shirls34]

I didn't think this was a symptoms thanks so much

[shirls34]

do you ever get tingling on skin

[ckw1]

Yeah I get them too. When it first started happening I didn’t realize it was connected to my anxiety but I was told by my doctor that it is a symptom that some people get with this disorder. Just another one of the many bonuses we get to experience.

[shirls34 in reply to ckw1]

[ckw1 in reply to shirls34]

I’ve just noticed them the last few years.

[shirls34 in reply to ckw1]

[ckw1 in reply to shirls34]

Same here. I’ve been having a really bad couple of days and I’m not seeing any relief in sight. I just want it to end. I need a break.

[shirls34 in reply to ckw1]

[ckw1 in reply to shirls34]

Oh I know how you feel. My seem to get worse while I’m sleeping. They can get bad enough to wake me up.

[shirls34 in reply to ckw1]

mine isn't that bad yet thank god ....I would be sitting watching tele and they be going 90 ☺

[ckw1 in reply to shirls34]

I feel that mine got worse when I started taking medication. I’ve come off my medication a few years ago but the muscle twitches still remain.

[shirls34 in reply to ckw1]

I have wondered that would it be my meds but I'm on a long time

[Morgjt]

I get twitchy when I go to sleep at night! I can be falling asleep and I twitch and jerk out of my sleep 😂

[Jaak1173]

I get them everyday. Sometimes random light ones and they move around. Sometimes they are strong and pick a spot and stay a while. Yesterday and this morning my lower lip had a mind of its own. I’ve had this 2 years. I’m told i have bad anxiety. I always feel fine. I do have stress. Never thought i was that bad though. But i went in beta blockers last month for 300+ palpitations a day. After all the tests i was fine. It’s hard for me to believe anxiety is doing all of this to my body and not something worse. My mind always goes to the dark side.
