Ironman 198 Posted September 4, 2021 You will kind of have to think yourself out of a habit you got yourself into. The pains you have are from the anxiety nerves. There seems to be some depression creeping in, too. We have these meltdowns and then it is from nothing. We focus on the wrong things. If you really had cancer, you could get help from a doctor. Think yourself as fortunate that you are fine in the moment and that if something happens, you know who to turn to. Be kind to yourself, too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonathan123 2368 Posted September 4, 2021 Hi. Cog13. Ironman talks of focus. Imagine yourself as a telescope. You focus on the object you want see to the exclusion of all else around you. But focussing in this way blocks any possible help. You have a mindset of pain and imagination. Leave the telescope and look around you at reality. ALL the symptoms you have can be caused by anxiety, Oh yes, I know, supposing IF!! Doubt and Despair are anxiety's companions. We can't ignore them but we can accept them as part of anxiety. By accepting and not fighting we begin to calm ourselves. There are many blogs and messages under 'blogs' on this site. If you have not done so read them. It may give you an insight as to how others have coped. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doug97 19 Posted September 9, 2021 When my anxiety is bad I twitch everywhere, including in my arms. I also get pains everywhere, including in my arms. When I'm feeling calmer, it doesn't go away completely, but it does get better. It seems clear to me that the twitching and pains are a psychosomatic result of extreme anxiety.
