Hi all.

Hoping for some advice or other experiences.

I've been off work for around 7 months now due to severe depression and anxiety. I've not really been doing that much. I walk the dog a lot, I managed a week in my caravan (but mainly chilling) and I do housework/odd jobs etc.

Lately though when I've been out I've been feeling really weak legs, like there's nothing to them. I can feel the emptiness in them. I know it's classic anxiety but I'm wondering if not being at work and not doing a great deal (previously did 50 plus hour weeks) is another cause.

When I go up and down stairs or get up after a while sitting I'm so unsteady and wobbly.

I'm due to go for a neural exam in January but blood tests thus far have come back nomral.

It's rather irritating

I think anxiety really does wear us out both mentally and physically. I feel so exhausted with it. :hugs:

Snap! I feel like I've been hit by a truck some days. The smallest movement can feel like such a struggle some days. xx
