I get this, and it oddly makes me look pleased, when I am the opposite
I’d say its a symptom of anxiety.
I have social anxiety and i find myself doing this all the time.
When does it happen?

i do have gad and have been on zoloft for 2weeks.. but i get this tightband or tension around my head and presssure in ears i have to yawn and they pop and also i noticed my heart feeling that its beating out of my chest and when i stand it feels like it drops and they equals out not sure if this is a side effect of zoloft or anxiety symptoms still.. but i get easily startled and anxious at night when i just concentrate on my heart beat.
Oh Zack please give the medicine time to work, it won’t get into your system for about 3-6 weeks. You are having anxiety, something awful the way it sounds. Do me a favor, read at night and stop listening for your heartbeat. Good luck.

i get constant nausea ,spells of vertigo/dizziness which can last for weeks until i go to sleep or it can last just a few mins ,headaches in the back of the head where the neck joins the skull ,iv had a feeling of pressure in my head or a lightheaded feeling ,stomach pains ,heartburn feeling in lower sternum ,muscle twitching ,muscle pains ,neck ache ,back ache,feeling of something stuck in the upper throat ,sharp sudden electric shock type pains ,sudden loss of libido for 3 days at a time ,tingling sensation in feet and hands ,hissing noise in ears , fatigue ,General feeling of being unwell or feeling that im about to get a cold ,a sudden shortness of breath ,these are all of which i have had for 5 months ,but i only feel anxious after these things start happening which all ways makes me think its not anxiety and a serious illness which im all ways worried about,iv had loads of blood tests urine tests neurological tests they can’t find anything,all of the symptoms don’t happen at the same time but have occurred off and on for the past 5 months thank you very much for your stories in advance if you have any .
i get that a lot too. i diagnose myself with something and i start having the symptoms. The mind is a powerful thing. Most of the time anxiety is triggered by our subconscious. I can be having a great day and out of no where i will start feeling some kind of pain that makes me think of the worse. There are medications you can take help with anxiety but if your like me and not about taking medications then i found it helpful to talk yourself out of them. It might sound crazy but so is dealing with anxiety. Tell yourself i felt these pains before and im still alive so there not killing me. Get your blood levels checked cuz it could be a chemical embalance. I know what your going through, and it sucks. I also found it helpful to talk to someone who will help you thru them. Find someone your close to that wont mind hearing about u pain for the day and let them tell u, nothings gonna happen and it actually helps you calm down. If it makes u feel any better today my face felt hot, my neck was hurting really bad so right away i thought i was having symptoms of MRSA. Ive had every symptom you listed so your not alone. Its a sucky way of living life but until they come out with something thats non narcotic i just learn to deal with them. Eventually u will too and the episodes with not happen as often. They wont go away until we stop fearing death and thats really what it boils down too. I hope u feel better =)

I was in a bicycle accident a year ago that resulted in multiple skull fractures and brain bleeds.
The entire day after the accident before I found out that I had skull fractures, I felt very physically and emotionally sick and stayed in my bed all day.
Now whenever I’m in a situation where I feel powerless and I feel like things are out of control, I spend all my time in my bed feeling the same way I did the day after the accident.
Could this be a symptom of PTSD?
My therapist recently brought up the possibility of PTSD from the accident–I’m going to discuss this with her next week but I’m just curious for now.
Also, I do not have flashbacks of the accident, but I also cannot actually remember any of the accident.
PTSD has symptoms of flashbacks and nightmares of the incident that caused/triggered it. Brain injuries often cause "retrograde amnesia", which has its own problems, but you cannot remember the accident.
Brain injury can, in itself, cause depression. Especially if it was in the left side of the brain. You may be "missing" some of the things that you used to be able to do, and you "should" still be able to do.
If that’s the case, you’ve got to learn to cope. YOu may be able to use therapy, or cognitive approaches. A head injury support group, and hearing how other people have learned to cope, could be quite helpful. That’s even with the issue of no two brain injuries are alike.

Does a diagnosis of social anxiety disorder require that symptoms occur each and every time one is in the feared situation?… Is it considered just ’shyness’ if the symptoms (anxiety, sweating, heart palpitations, etc.) occur only during SOME occurrences of that situation, but not in others?
Not necessarily, "social anxiety disorder also called social phobia, is an anxiety disorder characterized by intense fear in social situations causing considerable distress and impaired ability to function in at least some parts of daily life." That’s the "character" of it.
The diagnosis can be of a specific disorder (when only particular situations are feared} or a generalized disorder. Generalized social anxiety disorder typically involves a persistent, intense, chronic fear of being judged by others and of being embarrassed or humiliated by one’s own actions; overcoming it can be quite difficult.
Symptoms vary and can include a wide range of cognitive, physical and physiological aspects.
However, Psychologist Dr, Ray Crozier argues that the official criteria laid out makes it "difficult to ascertain whether the person being interviewed adheres to the DSM-III-R criteria or whether they are merely exhibiting poor social skills or shyness. So there you go. It can be a combination of things and not always a disorder. If it’s causing problems, it is a problem..

basically, i was taking anxiety pills for a few weeks and i stopped using them about 2 months ago because i felt a lot better, and i wasn’t suffering from panic attacks. Now i am off of them, i’m not suffering from panic attacks, but i get the occasional chest pains, back aches, abdominal pain and headaches, and i’m now curious as to how long these symptoms may last? I am pretty sure they’re the symptoms of anxiety because i have still been getting slightly anxious on/off and i still stress at times. How long can they last without treatment?

Please, I really need help with this. Me and my girlfriend had sex and we think she might be pregnant. We’re going in to take a blood test on Monday, but I just really need to know what kind of anxiety symptoms are related to pregnancy! I’ll give best answer to whoever helps the most.
Pregnancy is a time of great joy and anticipation. Many mothers-to-be, especially first time moms, wonder about the upcoming addition to their family. She may worry about whether she will be a good mother, whether the baby will be healthy, whether the pregnancy will be normal. For most, these questions do not cause undue concern, but for mothers-to-be who have anxiety disorder, these questions, along with hormonal fluctuations, can create and increase anxiety symptoms.
Interestingly, women with panic attacks often experience a decrease in panic symptoms during pregnancy. The hormones oxytocin and prolactin are manufactured during pregnancy and can contribute to the lessening of panic disorder symptoms. According to anxietycure.org, 40% of women with anxiety experience a lessening of anxiety symptoms during pregnancy.
Women with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) may see an increase in symptoms during pregnancy. It is thought that the increase of androgen hormones during pregnancy may be the cause of increasing symptoms of OCD.
Hormonal changes are gradual during pregnancy and therefore, anxiety symptoms can either increase or decrease over several months. However, once the pregnancy is completed, hormone levels significantly decrease immediately. This is the cause of both postpartum depression and increased anxiety symptoms.
The good news is that anxiety medications are relatively safe to both the mother and the baby. Women experiencing anxiety symptoms should discuss the possibility of medication with their doctor.
Taking time during pregnancy to do activities you find relaxing and enjoyable can also help. Exercise has also been found to help reduce symptoms of anxiety, however, you should talk with your doctor before beginning any exercise program.
Other treatments for anxiety, such as therapy and self help strategies including deep breathing or meditation can be helpful in relieving symptoms during pregnancy.

This has happened to me in the past with echocardiogram, arterial blood gas test and pulmonary function test coming back normal. At the time the only thing they could point out as cause was a recent bronchoscopy that might have left leftover lavage fluid.
Now, a year later, after being on nexium almost 12 months, the pain/anxiety came back while walking. The only thing that has changed in the last week or so is that I had discontinued Nexium (40mg/1x/day) and had about 3-4 fast food meals which I know gave me reflux but not on the day of the chest pain, this happened on pretty much an empty stomach in the morning.
When this happened I had no troubled or labored breathing or panting, just the chest discomfort that suddenly appeared along with the anxiety that followed.
I had been doi(ng strenuous exercise and salsa dancing a couple months ago so I cannot see how the only factor (GERD comeback) that has changed this past couple weeks could be a factor in this, wouldnt it cause the pain and the anxiety also at rest if it was the GERD?
You may have aspirated some gastric juices and your lungs are inflammed. This could lead to pneumonia…..hence, chest discomfort. Time for a chest auscultation and/or xray.

Hi,
I’m a 23 yr old male, healthy weight, and have been exercising regularly for a couple of years and eat very healthy (high quality saturated and unsaturated fats, limited supplements, whole grains, fish, some dairy). My family doesn’t have any history of mental or physical problems, and I’ve been very healthy, until now.
Back in Nov. 09, I started taking a men’s multivitamin that had some herbs in it. One of these herbs was yohimbe. I should have researched all of the ingredients, but didn’t. I was taking 1/2 of the recommended dosage (1 pill, whereas 2 were recommended) daily and everything was fine. The yohimbe dosage was 80 mg of yohimbe bark, not extract, and not yohimbine.
In January 2010, I went to Greece for 3 weeks. After 2 months of taking the pills, I started experiencing a weird chest pain, on the left side. It usually came at night and lasted anywhere from a few minutes to an hour. It was very mild, more like a pressure. I didn’t think much of it. Once I got back to the USA, it was on and off. Sometimes it would be there, sometimes not, and it wasn’t associated with physical activity.
On Feb. 11, the chest pain was getting worse and worse and it wasn’t going away. I took some aspirin, and took my vitamin. It was still there. Quite suddenly, while on the computer, I had a "dizzy" spell where everything seemed to blur, I felt serious palpitations, anxiety, and felt my blood pressure going up. It was at 160/100 once I got to the emergency room. After a chest x-ray, blood samples, urine samples, etc., they found nothing. Next day, same thing — and same results. I couldn’t sleep for days, had anxiety, fatigue, and basically all of the symptoms associated w/ yohimbe toxicity, except for the worst ones. I looked up people’s experiences and they were identical, although they took much higher dosage than me. My issue is that I was taking it for 2 1/2 months.
In Feb. and March, I’ve had serious on/off anxiety, fatigue, and chest pain to the point where I sometimes couldn’t do much. It was cyclical, as I’d often feel almost normal. This was accompanied by nausea, kidney, and lower back pain, again cyclical. I generally feel much better now, but sometimes get the chest pain (much milder than it was in the hospital), sometimes associated w/ activity, often not, sometimes worse when I breathe in deeply/move, sometimes not. I feel anxious at times, but do not have any panic attacks. I feel a strange "heaviness" in my head, but don’t really get dizzy or weak… just, I guess, a sense of malaise. Again, these things are cyclical… I can be very good for a couple of weeks, and then suddenly get nauseous, a bit faint, anxious, and experience chest pain.
I went to the cardiologist, got multiple tests done, and everything is normal. The pain is on the left side and rarely on the right, never in the middle, never traveling to other parts of the body. I had multiple blood, urine, sonogram tests, cardiograms, etc., all were normal.
So,
1) Has anyone experienced yohimbe-related toxicity?
2) How would I make these symptoms go away? I tried cod liver oil, cordyceps, garlic, cayenne, coconut oil, magnesium, holy basil, apple cider vinegar, among others. In general, they must have helped, or my symptoms went away by themselves.
3) Is it possible these are symptoms of something else? They seem to match yohimbe experiences, and yet it’s rare for them to persist for so long (5 months now). It’s also strange that they are so inconsistent, although I’ve read of marijuana users who develop random physical and psychological symptoms that come in waves, often without expectation, even after some time of feeling normal.
4) Could it be some kind of parasite? In Greece, I ate some oatmeal in a restaurant that, I later noticed, had a moving worm in it. It looked like some ordinary maggot, but since I started feeling the chest pressure a few days after this, it’s possible. I have not lost any weight (in fact, I gained about 7 lbs). But, it would be strange if a parasite would start out w/ mild chest pressure and nothing else.
5) Could it be a magnesium deficiency on top of the yohimbe? I used to take calcium supplements and consumed A LOT of dairy, including cheese. I even had tiny kidney stones in January that the doctor saw, although I eliminated them before I had to pass anything. I started taking about 900 mg of magnesium taurate, citrate, chloride (spray), and malate for about a month now, I generally feel better, but don’t know if that’s b/c of the magnesium deficiency or coincidence. Perhaps I should increase the dosage?
Thank you.
