Stress and Anxiety
While stress and anxiety are common reactions to various situations, there comes a time when it turns into a chronic condition. When you have to deal with chronic stress, which means tackling stress over long periods, it can cause all sorts of physical and hormonal changes in the body. One such change is the body’s response to stress, specifically the muscles and limbs. You could end up with stiff, almost jelly-like legs due to the constant stress, which can cause even more anxiety as you wonder what the cause could be.
The trick is to figure out how to deal with your stress and anxiety throughout the day. It helps to write down a journal to mark your stressors, as one of the best ways to deal with stress is to acknowledge its causes. Once you’ve figured out your stressors, you can take steps to deal with your anxieties bit by bit. The more you handle your anxiety, the easier it gets to go through life’s challenges, making you less likely to have a physical reaction to stress. Even symptoms such as leg weakness will stop being an issue.
