Sometimes we need medication to help us through this, better to have medication and some quality of life than not take it and feel rubbish all the time. :hugs:

Do you do any computer work, typing and using a mouse alot? Is it a tight band round your wrist, numbness and pins and needles in the pinky and ring finger?

Just asking, could be carpel tunnel syndrome. I get it alot and not just after work but can come on anytime. Can last for a few mins, hours or days.

Anxiety and over breathing, breathing too fast from your chest will give you pins n needles.
Also if you were sitting for long time, or compressing any nerves in your back or neck it can do the same .

Try a warm bath and streach and massage your muscles.
You'd be surprised at how much tension you might have, you'll notice any sore areas too.

Make sure you're eating well too, I know being low in potassium can cause muscle cramps, so make sure you're getting all those vitamins.

How's your mattress? I changed mine after feeling sore and achy in the morning. It made a big difference.
Another thing you may be doing is not sleeping to well, or you can even tense your muscles up in your sleep too if your very stressed out.

Excercise and nutrition are important overall, but no need to overdo it. Make a flexible goal: 3 days of vigorous work a week.
