When im anxious and on the borderline of a panic attack happening my legs go really stiff and very heavy feeling and ache so much that i can't move until the anxiety has passed. :ohmy:

yes its painful some times my muscles can hurt so bad like my chest and its a scary feeling. I can get pains and aches all over too.
a hot bath or some heat, like a heat wrap might help.
