sudden paralyzed feeling in body Posted: 02-24-08 16:07pm
I have been dealing with anxiety disorder
for the past few years I guess. It really
didn't become too much of a problem until
several months ago when I had my first
panic attack and was taken from my job in
an ambulance because I thought that I was
having a heart attack. Things ever since
that night have been a lot more difficult
for me. Anyway...I have developed a new
symptom that I am assuming is due to my
anxiety disorder and I was wondering if
anyone else has ever experienced this. The
first time it happened I was at work and I
was talking to a guest and all of a sudden
I felt paralyzed. I don't really know how
else to describe it. It was like I wanted
to move my body but for a brief second I
couldn't. It was a really scary thing to
experience. For the rest of the night I
went through the same thing. It was like
the muscles in my neck were really tight
or something and I was having trouble
moving my head and neck. Does anyone else
have any idea what I'm talking about???
