Health anxiety is exhausting. I suffer from it too.

Do you get twitches in the muscles or your arms and legs?

[nicky602279 in reply to Hidden]

No i do not i just get supper panicky like it gets so horrible at times I don’t even know what to do because nobody really supports me they always say “ its all in your head” and sometimes I don’t know what to do anymore 💔

Have you ever learned any breathing techniques or repetitive phrases to use during the panic attacks?

I definitely get the twitches. In my muscles of my legs for sure and eye twitches too, alot. It reminds me of a robot who is malfunctioning. Lol. I like to think of it as our bodies malfunctioning from constant worry and stress, etc.
