Well, for me, when I first got anxiety and it was really high, I was fidgety all the time, I suppose it's natural, your nerves are in shreds when you get high anxiety. Are you on any anti-anxiety medication? Do go and see your GP, I am on 25mg Citalopram which has really helped with my anxiety and just as important, I see a counsellor which is helping me get to the bottom of why it is happening in the first place.
