Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 22 years old and get anxious or angry about simple issues. I keep thinking about instances that have happened long before and become fearful. I feel discomfort even talking to friends and cannot speak in full consciousness without fear. I get irritated and annoyed if they comment and cannot respond appropriately. I tremble, and my voice shakes when I feel tense or angry. I have had this anxiety since childhood, which increases while speaking to a crowd or someone superior. I feel less confident. My limbs tremble when I hold weights, and after releasing weight, my hands tremble for a few minutes. When I am anxious or fearful, my legs shake if I do simple workouts. I am poor at decision-making. Please help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read the query, and I can understand your concern.

The symptoms you have mentioned are related to anxiety. The anxiety is irritating minor things and resulting in anger outbursts. The symptoms like discomfort in talking with friends, getting annoyed easily, inability to respond, and trembling limbs could be due to social anxiety. If possible, make an appointment with a psychiatrist and get yourself evaluated. Behavior therapy can be used for relaxation. Drugs like SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors), including Fluoxetine, Paroxetine, or Escitalopram, can be used to get relief from anxiety.

I hope this will help you.

Thank you.
