Trembling & Jittering

[Sit2Know]

My friend who does not have internet connection asked to ask the group this. She trembles and jitters internally all the time. Sometimes when she sits still it stops or reduces but all she has to do is stand up and walk 10 feet and it starts. She is on no medication - has pretty severe anxiety and has been going on for two years.

I don’t have this so I told her I would ask

I've noticed I have a mild case of this but only on a morning and it started when I began taking Prozac 3 months ago. It doesn't bother me though and goes once I get up.

Has she seen her GP? or had any counselling? i would defo suggest if she hasnt , she should have a chat with GP. Anxiety can cause so many symptons, and including what your friend has with trembling... i used to feel like my inner core was trembling... its sounds quite severe if she is physically trembling, so would go to GP. You dont have to accept meds if you dont want them, i dont take them anymore, i used to but i feel they just mask the problem, dont cure it... i know they help some people to get through day to day life though... Exercise, diet, lifestyle are all things to look out too... I take a really good vit b complex which really helps me now.

She has been to two doctors and they dont know what it is

Thats not great, most doctors should recognise anxiety, they say in the UK that at least one patient a day that a doctor sees is an anxiety case... what did they they to her? they must have had some opinion?
