Hey Joe,

Anxiety causes a LOT of muscle tension, because we are constantly on edge and tense without even realising. In turn, this makes our muscles pretty sensitive and overworked, so the aching and trembling you are getting definitely sounds tension related to me as opposed to anything you should worry about :) Try having a bath to relax your body when you are feeling achey or trembly, it usually works for me.

Joe,
I'm the exact same. Have been having physical anxiety symptoms for a year now..muscle twitching, exhaustion, tingling/sensory issues, morning anxiety, general aches and pains...but over the last month, I've had dreadful muscle pain, shakiness and weakness. I get out of bed some mornings fearful that my legs won't carry me...but they always do. I only have to go for a brisk walk and i have dreadful pain in my thigh muscles for 2 days. And with my health anxiety, I cant help wondering whether there's something else going on. I have thyroid issues so it could be that...but I'm also under alot of stress due to the breakdown of my 8 year relationship so I'm putting the new muscle pain down to this. But it is so frustrating and I know exactly how you feel. Anxiety seems to be able to impact on ANY part of the body and play absolute havoc.

Fingers crossed your pain/shakiness will start to get better soon.

Hey All
I seem to have this on and off all the time these days.... Some days I'm convinced my legs won't hold me up and other days I'm absolutely fine... It's so frustrating and scary.... I'm sitting here now with a hot water bottle on them worrying whether my legs willbe strong enough to get me through work tomorrow...

It's hard to believe that stress or anxiety can cause this much discomfort and worry.... :0((

Well - of course - my legs got me through the day..... :)
Am feeling a bit better today than I have done recently..... I'm sure it's all the posts I've read on here making me feel a bit better - I'm not the only one going through these frustrating symptoms....
