Hi all,
I'm new to posting on the website. Over the last month or so I've noticed a tremor in my left leg, I notice it on the clutch and when I'm standing still.
It gets worse when I'm anxious and then it affects both my legs (quite a lot recently) and I can't stop worrying about it.
I have had health anxiety and general anxiety since my teens (I'm 31 now) and finally had CBT for it four years ago. It's upsetting because I thought I had cracked it back then!
My question is this. I know what it is like to live in a constant state of anxiety exmaining my body and symptoms (and everyone else's for that matter :-() But how do you get to that stage where you can tell the difference between a 'real' symptom of something serious and anxiety? Do you ever?
If anyone else has any ideas please share them? Does anyone have anything that works for them? I long for the day when I can stop over-analysing and thinking that everything has to be an incurable condition...
