Default Anxiety or Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis? - 12-13-2008, 11:39 AM

I have been feeling a very strong anxiety for more than six months. Now I’m feeling much better, but now I’m feeling a lot of muscular movements like tics that affects several muscular groups especially in my face, arms, my back and shoulders. Last week I had a very strong back and shoulders pain, and now that I’m feeling better this happens and I feel that anxiety I coming back to me. Some times I wake up during the night and it happens that I can’t move one of my arms, but as soon as I start moving it, I feel completely recovered.Do you think that these conditions are related to Anxiety or do you believe that it can be related to Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)

Even though your anxiety is feeling better, it can take weeks to months for the full effects of anxiety to be felt physically. The tics and problems you are having are most likely anxiety related. I have the same problems, and it just happens that the more I think about weird physical problems, the worse they get. Then the anxiety comes back. It's definitely a cycle, and if you let the anxiety get to you, in another few months, you will probably have a different set of physical problems. Anxiety is a long battle, and even if you've found the correct drug/therapy combination, it could still take up to six months to feel better physically. If you haven't spoken with a doctor about medicines and therapies yet, I would definitely recommend doing that soon, so you can begin to get better.
