Anxiety symptons

Severe anxiety for the last few months.. What is everyone's physical symptoms, I'm trying to deal with the anxiety but the physical symptoms keep setting me back.

I’m sorry you’re going through this:( For me, I’ve been getting quite a few palpitations and it scares me so much (even though I heard they are harmless). I’ve also been getting a lot of muscle twitches and a lot of stabbing pains in my head. I hope you feel better!

I get a variety of symptoms. From dizziness to headaches to tingling numb around the face to pain in my chest from hyperventilation! Also chest pain i.e heart. I’ve had lots of tests and there’s nothing physically wrong. I hope this helps you x x

i get chest pains, pains in arms, shoulders, back, twinges in the neck and jaw, headaches, feeling dizzy / off balance, ear fullness, twinges in my legs, stomach cramps, upset stomach sometimes, palpitations, tingling and numbness, burning sensations, shaking. that’s the main and most of them, I feel scared and worried all the time. multiple tests and always normal but also doesnt stop me worrying and keeps setting me back too

Thank you everyone, I’m experiencing most of the symptoms you’ve all said, my worse one the now is sore ear, teeth and jaw. I’m not sure if I’m cleching my jaw or grinding my teeth at night, but as usual the more i focus on the pain the worse it seems, then I’ll probably move on to something else.

I’ve had similar, funny niggles in my jaw, with shooting pains in teeth like real sensitivity, and then a blocked ear type feeling, I have noticed when I feel like that I move my jaw and my jaw was quite tight. I’ve moved onto so many different things the last 14 weeks. my latest is my heart. I’ve had tests but still worry x

What are we like, i think this lockdown and been stuck in the house is not helping, I’ve too much time to think and no motivation.

yes totally agree, not enough distraction is there :frowning:

Sophie, you just described me! To a tee! x x It is anxiety. I hope it eases for you x x

My worse of the feelings of fast heart rate when anxious and the imbalanced/on the boat feeling when I am not. Viscious cycle. Improving in ways of acceptance and avoiding apprehensive behavior like fear and worry from symptoms. Sometimes I do feel it hard to breathe and sometimes tingling sensations on my face. I’ve done plenty of tests for my heart and nothing for my head. Doctors say it’s anxiety from a preworkout incident last year.

really?? that’s reassuring. its so scary :frowning: I wake up most mornings shaking wondering what the day is going to bring. I cant wait to feel like me again! thank you xx

hi, i get pains in my chest, my arms mainly the left one, pains in my jaw,back,dizziness 24/7, eye strain and lots more!

i have had all the tests done and everything is fine but i cant accept that so i worry its my heart, i guess it is all anxiety, its so scary isnt it?

if you feel like you need to talk my inbox is always open as i know how hard this illness is x

Thank you for your reply, its so tough isn’t it.. Feel like I’m constantly worrying about something in my body. Hope things get easier for you x

i have been suffering from anxiety never experienced anything like this before .
tingling, prickling, crawling sensations just random around my body and worry and fatigue, had anyone had these weard skin sensations and any recommendations of treatment not sure about antidepressants, love some advise help pls

I’ve had all these too, they are very annoying symptoms to have. unfortunately no quick fix. I’ve just started antidepressants.

Symptoms linked to anxiety I experience:
Head pressure / Brain fog / Vertigo / Swimming sensation in the head / stiff neck - at the end of a working day my head feels like soup…

I have been prescribed Amitriptyline / Nortriptyline / Sertraline - none of these have had any effect other than dehydrating me.

Was sent to see a Psychiatrist / counsellor = no effect.

No idea how to be rid of these symptoms - at home or at weekends fine - during the week at work or around others = not fine. Nightmare

i have these symptoms! its so scary isnt it

Awful - was convinced had a head issue the feeling is so intense but MRI showed nothing. I have never had any problems with chest or breathing - just concentrated around the head and neck.

thanks for the reply what antidepressant ate you taking have you been on it long?
was thinking of trying cbd oil..

Funny how anxiety can cause so many symptoms.. I’ve just started taking antidepressants so will see how things go. I also have the fear at the moment that i only get telephone consultations at the doctors :roll_eyes:.
