I have struggled with anxiety for a decade plus (a diagnosed panic disorder).

I’m my opinion, symptoms can be different for everyone.

Mine includes; sweating, increased heart rate, numb fingers, numb toes, shortness of breath, racing thoughts, negative thoughts, paranoia, & feeling like I want to crawl out of my skin.

I wish I could offer you some stellar advice... but I still struggle with my symptoms.

Best of luck on your journey! ✨

Hi

Thanks for your feed back, yes I have the same I some times also feel as if my legs and arms are weak. Did your doctor give you any medication and if so did it work

You’re welcome ✨

I’ve tried many different medications but nothing really worked.

Now I mostly use Hydroxyzine, different forms of Cannabis, & meditation.

Did you ever have chest pain or aching arms

Some chest pain. But it’s more of a discomfort.

Try magnesium, most of us are deficient. It's called the "original chill pill"

Anxiety can create many physical responses. I have had much of what you spoke of. I was on meds for a bit, but learning my triggers was the best was to combat and finally be free of my anxiety. Also dealing with issues from the past that I had pushed down made it possible to see more clearly and not allow things to sneak up and overtake me. Praying for freedom for you... HUGS
