" Yep I know what you mean. Anxiety can express itself in so many physical ways it can get really scary. Have you talked to a doctor about this? There are a lot of things they can do to help reduce symptoms with medication or therapy. "

" Yes. I know exactly how you feel, I felt this way every single day for about two months. Go to a doctor to help with this. "

" Yes, I have.

I have also felt that my head began floating away from my body. I even saw myself below arguing with my persecutor. My doctor calls it disassociation. I call it freaky.

When your legs and arms can't move and/or you can't talk, scream or anything -- its when the body (your brain) is becoming so traumatized that it sends signals to the rest of your body saying "Protect the core organs" the Heart, Liver, Kidneys, and Brain. That's when people die of fear. Usually because they were hit by a bus or other thing. The fight or flight response never works with these people.

As for me, I often just pass out. "
