Anxiety Help - Muscle Clenching from Stress and Anxiety

Muscle Clenching from Stress and Anxiety

Is muscle clenching part of anxiety? I find myself clenching my muscles at times throughout the day, even if I am not having anxious thoughts.

I also stop breathing at times (for only a few moments) and realize this and take a breath, or I clench my fists around things when I�m holding them.

It sounds like you could be suffering from stress and anxiety.

"My family was depending on me for support and I let them down. When my boss would tell me that I was scheduled to give a presentation, I just wouldn't show up for work because I was sure all those people would be pointing at me, judging me and criticizing me. I just couldn't bear it. I know it sounds irrational, but at the time it was very real to me and it was ruining my life and my career."

Jim's doctor explained to him that there are social anxiety medications available that could help him cope with his symptoms.

"My doctor prescribed psychotherapy and social anxiety medication," said Jim. "I am feeling so much better. Last night I actually went to my daughter's PTO meeting and introduced myself to the crowd."

Anxiety Help - Does Nicotine Cause Anxiety?

Does Nicotine Cause Anxiety?

Does nicotine cause anxiety? If I quit, will my anxiety lessen?

Rather than being a cause of anxiety, nicotine appears to rev up the nervous system and therefore the high level of nervous activity matches and appears to calm anxiety.

You can expect your anxiety level and blood pressure to RISE after quitting for a couple of weeks or months. It's a good idea to incorporate some physical activities (that tire you out!) and some stress management regimens into your program to quit smoking.

Is Pregnancy Anxiety Normal?

Is anxiety during the first trimester normal?

Anxiety is normal, especially if you're a first time mom, or have suffered a previous miscarriage. Don't worry. Another contributing factor to your anxiety might be due to the hormonal changes in your body as a result of pregnancy, which can affect emotions and moods.

Take good care of yourself, focus on your own needs and well-being, spend enough quality time with your partner and with yourself, and enjoy the pregnancy as it goes along. Congratulations!

Anxiety Help - Social Anxiety Disorder - Fair Diagnosis

Social Anxiety Disorder - Fair Diagnosis

There is a woman who has very few friends; in fact, she has only one. She has never had much of a social life and never could relate very easily to others. This only bothers her occasionally. She doesn't seek out friendships, but she doesn't shun them, either. She's fairly normal and converses fine with people, but she rarely comes across people who have the same interests, etc. that she does. Most of the time, it's other people who shun her.

One day, a doctor tells her she has Social Anxiety Disorder and suggests she seek counseling to determine why she can't make friends easily. Does this seem like a fair diagnosis? Why? Should she really start taking pills and seeking therapy for being happy with herself and having people shun her?

If she is locking herself up in her home, scared to even go do simple things like grocery shop, get gas in the car, or has this serious need to get home whenever out in public, then she does have social anxiety disorder.

"For years, I felt like I was a freak or something," said Janice. "My family couldn�t understand what was wrong with me. I knew there was nothing rational about my fears but I thought there was nothing I could do to control them until I started attending the anxiety support group in my city."

For Janice, the support group was a major tuning point. "It�s the best thing I�ve ever done for myself. I wish I had started attending the anxiety support group years ago because I could have spared myself a lot of suffering."

Anxiety support groups help people empower themselves and others on the path to recovery. Participants in anxiety support groups share "war stories" with each other and offer coping tips that have worked for them.
