Hi all,
does anyone get this?When i am full of dread like now,my legs tense up and it really worries me until i calm right down.It may not seem much but i really need to know if anyone else feels leg tension.

How much do they tense? Do they tense and you lose control? Do they feel tense? Are they restless tense?

Depending on how tense, you might want to see a neurologist (I have seizures and many things look like seizures to me that aren't). Seeing you have a lot of anxiety do you think both are somehow related? Do you feel the more you're anxious the more they tend to tense up?

Hi - yes of course legs tensing up is a symptom of 'dread and anxiety'. It can be part of the 'fight or flight' adrenaline response, so you can run fast, but also sustained anxiety can cause muscle tightness and they can ache afterwards. Have I had it ? Of course, many times. I'm sure no neurologist is needed here. The trouble is the more you focus on it, the longer it will take for the muscular tension to ease.
