Yikes!! Help symptoms

[stacy1912]

Can these all really be anxiety? I can't believe this is not physical?!

1) trembling hands

2) twitches all over body

3) fatigue ALWAYS tired

4) churning stomach and IBS

5) slurring my words/stammering/stuttering (none else can tell but I feel like I can't speak properly)

6) caffeine is making things worse, so going to drop this!

7) vibrating feeling through body and limbs.

Anyone else feel the same? thanks

Hi. I've suffered with health anxiety since 2009, it went and it came back about 4 weeks ago. Right now I have weakness in the right side of my body, twitches, and a heavy feeling in my legs. I can barely eat, i am ALWAYS tired, even when i sleep for ages. Get really bad stomach pain also.

I read back to posts in 2009 where i have written that my right leg feels heavy, but this feeling went away until now, which tells me it most probably is anxiety. I know it is hard to believe that something mental can cause sooo many physical symptoms.. but it probably is just anxiety.

Have you been to Dr's about your symptoms yet?

Thanks for the replies

Yes the doctor says anxiety BUT could be the start of something as I am twitching all over! I won't say what as you'll all freak out about it, just like I am! I keep thinking to myself if only I felt well and then I would not be stressed!! Ha ha!! There is no let up!! Doc has increased my mirtazapine to 45mg starting friday so I hope this will help me!!

I do not know how I am managing to work full time at the moment as I am soooo stressed and anxious. In fact I am typing this when I am supposed to be working!

Back to what I am being paid for!!
