View Full Version : Is feeling weak an anxiety symptom?
I have health anxiety and have been feeling really weak in my legs the past few days. I'm really scared of MS. Is feeling weakness a normal symptom of anxiety or is it neurological? I went to a GP last week and asked if I had a nuerological issue and she did a few physical tests and said I was fine but I'm worried because it wasn't an MRI, etc.

Legs feeling weak, even jelly like, is a common anxiety symptom. I used to get it a lot......
Yes, I get this a lot when I'm in panic mode, sometimes I feel like I'm going to fall over but I haven't yet.
I'm also worried because I feel like my legs are feeling a lot more sore during workouts than they were a few months ago
Yup, for me I just think to myself I never had this before I stared going crazy about my health then it most likely is a symptom of anxiety. I've had so many symptoms its like whenever I get a new one I'm like ughhhhhhh

Yap, very common, I would get very weak legs and weakness all over my body too
Hi.
It most certainly is. You probably feel like you are walking through treacle, try to imagine yourself floating on air instead.
I recommend self help books by Dr Claire Weeks to everyone. They were written in the 60īs but are the best things I own. She explains the anxiety state in a way we can all understand, along with how it affects us psychically, and offers ways to cope with everything anxiety throws at you. Its her suggestion to float not force , not mine. And it does work.:)
