Hi all,

This is my first post, and i've been suffering from severe anxiety and panic for about 6 months. I have all the usual symptoms but was just about able to cope with them until very recently.

The latest and most distressing symptom for me are muscle spasms or twitches, most noticable in the fingers on both hands. This is usually most noticable when im sitting at a computer when my hands are in a certain position, or if my hands are outsretched.

The physical aspect of these symptoms are bearable as they dont effect my day to day life, its more of a hypochdriacal effect of the belief that i am now suffering from the early effects of Parkinsons or MS. I dont have any of the other symptoms of these diseases but as you probably know its difficult to think clearly when anxiety is pretty much ruling your life in the first place.

Does anybody else suffer from similar symptoms, and if so are there any effective remedies for it that you know of.

Thanks in advance.
