Has anyone had muscle aches as a result of their anxiety. I have been more anxious and not sleeping well. My wrists and hands aches as well as my legs. Starting to flip a little?

Hi Gizzy it's Larry.

Gizzy when i would start on my pain train years ago it was one
thing after the other until i made myself miserable. I would take
my xanax and calm down, i always felt upset with myself but we
are what we are, to be more direct yes anxiety can do this and
much more, hang in there kid, Peace

Yep. Me too. Pain in my wrists, knees, neck and back. My neck and back pain were so bad that I started going to a message therapist weekly. It has done wonders!!

Yes...absolutely.
My back is in constant pain and every now and again my neck starts up.

GMF.,

Muscle tension from anxiety can cause achy muscles...and as you can see, you are not alone!

Here is a link for an exercise that should help.:)
