Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread.

I am beinning to think that anxiety and neuropathy are related symptoms. I take a supplement called NerveRenew and I also take 900mg of Neurontin daily. Both of these treat both anxiety and neuropathy. Also I was reading about Lyrica which also treats both anxiety and neuropathy. Has anyone else come to this observation??

When I googled it...said possible causes of neuropathy could be vitamin deficiencies. I have noticed since I changed my diet last January that I feel much better overall and much lower anxiety and depression. I have had this discussion with others. What if it's all a nutrition problem? What if all the things in our processed foods are what is making everyone sick. Just a thought.

Due to the anxiety ... the nerves have exploded ... is how it worked out in my case. Diet is a large impact on the well-being, and again, anxiety affects what tastes comfortable in my case. How it was determined that it was anxiety creating the "perfect storm" took a lot of work, and learning the cognitive behavior techniques gave me an opportunity to build some positive connections related to anxiety. The hardest part was learning how to tell the pain...what it was. I know that getting treatment gives temporary relief and in finding the temporary relief, it allows you to rest, which helps healing.

Lyrica is extremely hard if not impossible to get off of. I have been on for 5 years due to fibromyalgia-it edges me out, and more side effects the last couple years. I had better luck with gabapentin. I take Xanax for anxiety. Good luck with your choice. Fibrohyg

Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job. It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it. Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown. There was a full length mirror in the changing room. I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like. It was a reality check.
