Well, i just gotta let this out ...so here it goes..

I think the depression , and muscle aches hit fisrts then i graduated to my muscles twitching, a lot. earlier this year i had torn some muscles in my neck , and i think that kicked it into gear.
i'd been to the doctor for chest pains and they , said it was my chest wall, or muscles hurting .

i was on the computer looking up diseases that cause muscle twitching, and of course first one was ALS. Scared the crap out of me..and the anxiety kicked in, so i made an appointment with my doctor , who said wasnt the way ALS showed itself,..drink plenty of water, take vitamins..etc

2 months later my anxiety and depression are off the charts, because my muscle twitching hasnt stopped,i have burning sensations, aches, stabbing pains in my arms, so i go to the nero who tells me the same thing , and to give it 8 more weeks and itll go away,

Well it didnt, im twitching now as i type ..lol

by now ive noticed that i have a crawling sensation on my face and my lips tremble...and twitch , go back to the neuro and he acts like im faking saying that i have too many symptoms.

well now my anxiety and depression get together with the feeling that maybe im losing my mind.
And i get tinnunitus, and for two weeks i had teeth or jaw tremors, hard to explain how that feels, luckily that went away.

I have to explain for this next part that i was abused by an uncle as a child
and i had know for awhile that i had OCD, just small stuff like rechecking the doors, stove, etc.
no big deal

with the by then 4 months of anxiety, added to the deppresion, mixed with the OCD, feeling crazy, added to a episode of law and order svu show,
started a new phase of OCD that i had never even heard of, the Bad thoughts syndrome.

That i could hurt my child because of what happened to me in the past, that developed into , just hurting a loved one.

I just thank god for his help , and for his son jesus
because i know i couldnt have made it alone.

I have never been confronted with anything in my life like this , but with lots of prayer ive started get a grip on myself.

Hi Reavlin, i am sorry to hear what happened to you, no one deserves to be abused... I am new to this board, as i am in the middle of having tests done for fybromyalgia and awaiting the results... I know that twitching and chest pain are a couple of symptoms of fibromyalgia, just wondering if you have any other symptoms? I sympathise with you and await your reply...

Hey Reavlin, your symptoms sound almost identical to mine. The physical symptoms caused most of my anxiety and all of my depression I would say cause I didn't know just like you. I would like to say get diagnosed for fibro cfs maybe and if that's what you have find a good doctor and ask about b12 and magnesium. This might relieve some of your symptoms. The facial twitching sucks I know wow, and trying to describe it a doctor is even worse when they have that look on their face like what is this fool talking about......lol. I know that look very well. Don't let it deter you from finding the truth.

Keep praying, get diagnosed and don't give up no matter how bad you feel. It can definately be dealt with.
