Hi there,
I have anxiety and maybe depression. Not on any meds of any kind as yet, so side fx can be ruled out. But some weird physical stuff has made me uneasy, so thought I'd see if anyone else gets this.
Symptoms are: icy feeling in chest, left arm and back of left shoulder, palpitations, leg twitches, hot and cold sweats. I'm only 36 so can't be menopause. These occur alongside crippling feelings of fear, sadness, doom and gloom, also insomnia. could all this be anxiety? Thanks, S
Hi Saloire. anxiety and stress certinly cause a lot of physical symptoms. depression and anxiety feed off each other. feelings of fear, sadness, doom and gloom certainly sound like depression, and insomnia is another common symptom. my advice is go to your doctor and have him or her check you over. if you are fine physically then this will give you immediate mentl relief and then you can start working on your anxiety and fears. sounds like your physical symptoms have been brought on by stress, but just to be on the same side go get checked out by your GP. anxiety and depression can be curtailed and you can feel yourself once again. this can be defeated, have no doubt about it. Good lucl.
Hi,
It sure sounds like is it. ;-( Any changes in you lfe the last few months? Anyway, to you still have to see a Doc to eliminate the fear of not knowing. For now take it easy with Gluten and Dailry products. ;-)
I always recommend people get their thyroid checked. The thyroid manages our bodys chemistry. If it hyper or hypo can really affect our hormones, etc.
