Over the past month I have been getting the weirdest anxiety symptoms.
I get the creepy crawlies and I also get the feeling of water drippin down my arm and leg
I go to my doctor and he assures me that this is anxiety. They did all the tests. Thyroids, blood work, mri, neurologist. Everythings keeps coming back fine. I even get my lungs checked alot because if water is dripping in my body then it has to be in my lungs RIGHT?!? WRONG!?? No sign of water anywhere. Theyre saying its all in my head. I think Im oging nutso
The closest thing Ive heard about on this board that remotely comes close is the girl who said it feels like lizards are running down her spine.
Anxiety
WHERE IS THE CURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CAN ANYONE ELSE RELATE!!!!! OR POST YOUR WEIRD SYMPTOM
oh wow i have gotten that feeling of water dripping on my body also. i NEVER mentioned it to anyone not even my DR. because i thought it was just to weird to admit to having a feeling like that. nice to know i am not the only one that has felt that sensation.

Thanks for your bravery. Everyone wants to cover it up with "sensation"
Happy im not the only one but sucks for us! I was reluctant to tell my dr also but then I just fessed up because it scarred me into more panic attacks now I can rest a little easier. I think
If people would just say exactly what their "sensations feel like then maybe it would make the board open up a little more
Thanks PD, I hope you know your not alone
Mine is not really that weird i dont think, but here it is; sometimes i get these like twinges in different parts of my body - eg. arms or legs and it feels like there is someone poking me with their finger!
Oh yeah, i have another one, when im feeling quite anxious and im on my feet, like walking about or whatever, it sometimes feels like i am walking on a boat and the floor is moving or shaking.
I had the feeling on day that pee was running down my leg when I was on the treadmill. I have had burning all over my body too. And my faces tingles and feels numb.
Hello,
Just thought I would add to your post,
When my anxiety is really bad I get a burning sensation in my shoulders and my back (like a indian burn or a carpet burn) its not a very good feeling that is for sure. And sometimes it can last for days. I haven't had that feeling in a few years but I have been on meds now for a few years too LOL Oh well just thought I would share... Take Care All
I get a feeling of being out of my body and out of control!
I get a real high pitched ringing in my ears, my stomach cramps up and I feel the need to rush to the bathroom but I can't. Sometimes People will be talking to me and I have NO clue what they are saying I just want them to go away. On a few occasions I have blacked out.
Thank God I started Lexapro 6 months ago and have not had one twinge of anxiety since
When I feel like I'm in an elevator going up and down, but I'm really on solid ground...I hate that! Also, the out-of-body feeling and the feeling I will lose control of my car, both freak me out.
I Am So Tired Of Feeling Like This. I Was Amazed At How Many People Feel Like I Do. My Legs Are Shaky All The Time And I Just Hate This Feeling Of Being Off Balance. I Also Get Very Lightheaded. I'm On Xanax And Imimpramime. They Don't Seem To Be Helping. If Anyone Wants To Chat You Can Email Me-----{REMOVED}

I wanted to start a thread like this so I could help also. I know that they're are over 100 different symptoms of anxiety and if everyone would post theirs then it would be easy to relate to your symptoms. It gives a feeling of peace to know that your not the only one feeling this way and you are not going crazy. Praising GOD is helping me as well as reading some of the symptoms on this board. It feels good to know your not alone.
1) painful spots that feel like they are on the inside of my head
2) Spot on my neck that when I push sends the pinching feeling up my head
3) terrible mood swings
4)head feels like it has a heart beat in many places
5)trouble breathing
6)moments where i feel like I may pass out
7) clicking sound in my head
If anyone has any comments or can relate {REMOVED}, I am scared. I know I have posted many times but I keep getting worse, withthe fear that I have a brain tumour.

i have tha watery feeling u were talking about except its right where my heart is..and guess what, i have anxiety ALL OVER MY HEART!
i hate it
everyday i come with a new disease that i have concerning my heart and circulatory system right now its cardiomyopathy but has been just about every disease in the book.
I can't think straight, everything seems unreal...less real than a dream. If I have a sudden scare (like while driving) my tongue will go tingly and sort of cool/numb.
Im with you spencer123, I (my latest symptoms anyway) get the " anxiety around the heart " thing. Pretty much sucks, and while were on the subject, has anyone ever had the feeling that their heart is like, pumping air instead of blood thru it? Its like it stops for a beat or 2, very uncomfortable scares the daylights out of me. P.S. anyone ever try Cymbalta, i a have tried ad`s with little luck but was recently told by my doctor this one is very new and works much quicker than the 4 to 6 weeks most others take with very few side effects.
WRONG!??
