My body is tense 24/7 I kid you not. Its like a person being chased by a hungry lion the whole day. That's just anxiety for you there.

Never ending. Sometimes my muscles hurt so badly it burns.

Tightness and tensing of the body is really such a painful thing

I also get pain in my lower back its more like shooting pains every now and then and then also if I stand too long it starts hurting..

I have to literally sit up like a blank for it not to start hurting.

The shoulder pains is always burning and it really gets bad at night under my shoulder blade.

Every night I beg someone for a massage lol cause if I feel pressure on the muscles it helps so much.

I think you see that you are not alone Anxiety63 in experiencing painful muscle tension.

Our bodies can produce additional stress to our muscles from improper posture, coming from both emotional and physical pain.

It's important each day to find some "me time" in just concentrating on letting go

of your thoughts, practicing meditation and deep breathing. With each deep cleansing,

calming breath, your shoulders will automatically pull away from your ears and muscles will relax.

Finding methods like this that work for you can have a positive result in how you feel

both physically and mentally. :) xx

My shoulder and back muscles are really tense and tight. I've been trying to do more stretches and actively being aware and relaxing them.
