Stiff muscles and anxiety
Posted: 07-21-08 10:20am

I have anxiety and very stiff muscles. I am constantly scared. A couple of times I have gotten so paniced when I have been outside I couldn't make myself walk. Only 40 steps into my house and I couldn't make myself do it.
Please tell me others with anxiety have had this happen. I am worried that I have a disease. Anxiety is ruining my life.

A severe anxiety attack can effect you whole body mucles. Causing them to stiffin up and hard to move. And yes, I am afraid of hights and this one time my X and I were in Montana montains hicking and I froze half the way up and litterally could not move for at least a half hour. Now on could touch me or help me. I kew I was going to fall off that cliff into the running rapids below. I finally got my coposure and had to move slowly down on my butt. It was horrific to say the least. My muscules hurt so bad after that, I though I'd been in a train wreck.
