medication for physical symptoms
Posted , 9 users are following.
Can anyone recommend a drug that is really effective for the physical symptoms of anxiety? In a way I can cope with the mental aspects but I am plagued by creeping, burning, on-fire skin and restless legs, it's like being plugged into an electrical socket all the time. Unless I'm actually physically active (and I can't be all day, it's exhausting) this sensation drives me crazy... the only relief is self-harm which I really try not to do. Any tried-and-tested remedy out there?

The other good thing about this thread is that I realise I'm not the only one – I had never heard of anyone else with buzzy, burning skin and feel pretty alone. My GP is very nice but struggles to understand anxiety and panic, she's so calm herself! She did say I needed counselling and referred me, but after three cancelled appointments all I got was a sort of triage person who ascertained I'm not actually suicidal, said yes I do need counselling, but the waiting lists were closed so she was "discharging" me, and sent me away with no treatment and no hope. Can you imagine if they took that attitude with diabetes or something?!!
