Re: Can't stand up or walk..
Hi there
I get that a lot, you become aware of your legs, then suddenly you don't feel in control of them. The more you want them to be normal, the worse it gets.
I find walking through crowds the worst, like when I'm shopping, although it fires up at any time. Standing to wait for a train is the same. I expect my legs will be wonky when I stand up in a minute, having now reminded myself of it.
You think about your legs, and hey presto, they feel all over the place.
It's a tedious cycle, but is a symptom of anx.
Hope this helps

Re: Can't stand up or walk..
If you've ever heard the expression 'jelly legs' in connection with being nervous scared or anxious, this fits what you're describing. However, you are also taking quite a few meds, so it wouldn't hurt to check with your doctor if might be due to the combination of these.

Hi guys - I have booked a doctors appointment today as my legs actually gave way at the weekend and I've ended up bruised and grazing my knees!! Didn't think the would happen by evidently it does! :-/
Re: Can't stand up or walk..
I agree with ISB as that's quite a bit of medication. Due to my wife's illness, she's on Seroquel and Klonopin (and few other meds). She was on quite a bit for a while and now, even at reduced dosages, she still gets a bit wobbly.
Definitely discuss the dosages and side effects you're experiencing with your doctor.
