Anxiety Support Group
Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
This is just a vent I guess....any input would be appreciated though (Please no, "It might be MS" or "You need to get to the doctor right away!" posts). I know that sounds kind of mean, but I do have health anxiety and don't want to hear that right now :o)
I have had these symptoms before, but of course they always scare me when I do get them. Today has been pretty symptomatic.
It started out with my left hand feeling tingly. Then, my whole arm eventually got tingly, then it moved to my left leg. My left jaw area has a weird tingly feeling as well. I do have TMJ, but I don't know if this is what is causing all of this. I took a Klonopin and the weird feeling my arm and legs is gone now I am feeling like that all over my body.
I have been to the doctor so much in the last year that I don't want to go for yet another symptom because they always say it's anxiety. Which is very well may be, but it is hard to fathom that anxiety can make a person feel so awful. I just feel weak and shaky and I HATE it!! I am about to go exercise and see if that helps any.
Does anyone get symptoms like this?

I'm 35 and have 4 kids....don't know if that info makes a difference :o)
I never believed anxiety could make a person feel so awful when I first started getting it; I saw the doctor many times and unfortunately for me it took a long time to get help.
I am sure now that it was anxiety because I am feeling so much better after I exercised.
It's madness and wish it would just go away!!
