Tension

[Mr m anxious]

Does anybody find that their muscles tense up easily with anxiety? I only have to talk about something that scares me or any small about of stress and all my top half (chest, shoulders, neck and left arm) tense up quickly.

Hello,

Thats completely normal. It's just your bodys reaction. When I get stressed I get stabbing pains in my head where I'm so tense xx

Thanks for reply
I mean more than normal, also feels like throat is closing up which I know is very common with anxiety.

It's amazing how much of an effect anxiety and stress can have on you and how you can be anxious and have the symptoms of it with out even realising xxx
