I’m 22, I’ve had an MRI that came back clear, I’ve seen a heart specialist that said I had a healthy heart. I’ve have tons of blood work that always came back great. YET I still feel tons of symptoms everyday all day, I have pressure headaches, feels like my head weighs a ton, I have extreme fatigue, my legs and arms sometimes feel heavy and weak. I feel umbalanced at times, I get little spasms or what feels like “bubbles popping”. I feel like my legs are numb sometimes. I’m constantly worrying about having a heart attack because I get random pains in my chest and my arms. I constantly think I have MS because of all my symptoms being related. Also my right ear has been plugged for 3 months, the doctors checked it and said it looks good. They don’t know why my ear is plugged. BUT ALL MY OTHER SYMPTONS IS DUE TO ANXIETY MY DOCTOR SAYS. I’ve had anxiety since I was 6 years old but these symptoms are new and have been happening the last 3 months and it’s caused me so much depression. I sit at home all day worrying about what I will die from. People think I give myself these symptoms by sitting at home all day. I just wanna know what everyone else suggest and reassurance if anyone with anxiety has dealt with these symptoms as well. I just wanna live a good life and not worry 24/7 about all these pains and sensations I feel. Please comment down below it’ll be much appreciated thank You so much!
Hi there Rebekah 🙂
yes thiscan all be anxiety !! As hard it is sounds so so many symptoms not everyone’s the same.
The fatigue the feeling weak.
you say and the sitting in and the worrying the headaches do you think it could be a combination of both Anxiety and Depression? Do you have depression as sometimes they go hand in hand with each other.😃
Please take comfort that the tests you’ve had are clear the scans and bloods.
I’m tired all the time! My heart races and my palms sweat the minute I get up, I am a constant worrier.
If not for me for my loved ones.
You sound that you are very low as well as anxious.
You asked for suggestions my friend.
Go back to your dr you need to concentrate on the feeling low, the anxiety together.
Se what they suggest
I can say when im feeling low and anxious I’m prone to infections cold sores ect...
the syptoms change for me breathing it’s great it sound a small thing but it really can help, out longer than in.
try not to overwhelm yourself remember the tests were clear that’s a good thing isn’t it.
try to see if you can get to see your dr if you r not happy with him/her change them. It’s your life it’s your happiness and it’s to get some help hey.
I have tablets I am on a waiting list atm for a CPN.
I say this a lot bout it’s true Aniexty is a cruel illness.
Im a little like you I stay home avoid things this is my Aniexty I feel very low I hav many of the dyptoms you do not worry I will die... but my mum my rock. I’m on constant alert hat something bads gonna happen.
Seek some help professionally about this! Now start to work out why and see if you can talk that through. You say since 6 yrs old you’ve had anxiety there’s a reason why and that’s not for me to ask what and why. Talking is good therapy
take care be reassured by the test result and also you are not on your own.
ive you worry about something more tell the dr.
take care

Hey there , I know how you feel I've had crazy symptoms over the past few years and they have been all anxiety based.
I've had X-rays blood tests a tube down my throat and had many other tests they all came back fine, anxiety symptoms can be small or big they can differ one week then change the next.
Your not alone we all have this struggle-
Know that doctors are good at seeing anxiety symptoms even if you still think they maybe wrong they have seen it many times , keep your head up Hun I'm in the same boat right now it's gonna be ok x
sorry youre having these problams ive never felt this but medications can do things like this I don't know if your on any or not hopefully its temparry good luck to you
No I’m not on medication and I know. Not a lot of people have dealt with what I am dealing with that is why it puts so much fear in me and I constantly worry and stress out over my symptoms. It sucks, it’s been happening for some time now.
Thank you so much. I’m gonna do therapy, the therapist said after he’s done with me I won’t have anxiety this bad ever again. I hope he’s right.
Just read your post to Rebekah also. Your symptoms from the minute you wake, sweating shaking. Heart racing, feeling of doom really, just totally relate. Mum is my rock, she forces me to do things even now, I can do mostly on my own now but she knows I could always avoid something and take a step back. Realise your post is a few hours ago just good people can understand how each other feel here❤️
Thank you Edwina🙂
Like you my mum is my rock! Has been for 40 long years.
Despit my addiction and the problems that cause she could’ve turned me away but no always with open arms.
Though I know I’m my heart that she will not be here forever no one is.
so I really want to be in a better place.trying to get help find a home on my own build a home a life and find some hobbies I may like.
I haven’t done anything for literally months I’ve avoided everything appointments meeting people even up to do a little tasks at home.I’m hoping that when I get therapy to get strength out and rebuild my life once again I’m sure I can do it is just right now I can’t see me doing it if you know what I mean.We are both very lucky to have mothers that care very much about us isn’t it? Some may not ha right thier mother’s too help and I feel for them.Take care Like me take it day by day that’s all we can do.Is giving me great comfort that people or answering my post and there are giving suggestions and I’ve taken the advice!
There are genuine caring people on here and it is really good to get others opinions and share stories troubles ect...
i hope you’ve the help you needThank youVicky🌈
Thanks for reply. Glad you got my post. My mum pushed me to do stuff even when I was shaking and begging her not to make me, she would make me do something small until I realised I was safe with her and nothing bad happened , my overthinking made me dread everything butt when I actually did it it was never that bad( easy to say looking back) I also have a great gp with great knowledge of mental illness, I try and concentrate on how lucky I am with this support, some people have nobody, bless this site and people on it, thanks for chat, hoping one day we all get many more good days than bad days. It can be done, it's hard, like lots of things in life but it's worth the hard work to get better and be happy , we deserve it, we're trying, we're reaching out and hopefully help others at the same time as trying to help ourselves. Just talking helps. 😊❤️
