those who take propanolol for anxiety...

[maybebaby23]

Does it take away all your nervous energy? If you get that, like when you are in a place that usually triggers panic (for me its anywhere with people ) I am always "on the edge" face burns, im moving aound messing with my hair, scratching my face and arms etc i feel really uncomfortable and its quite noticable to others which makes me feel worse...but the propanolol stops it going any further which has really helped me. However im wondering if i need a higher dose, is it supposed to take away that nervous energy too or is that something i have to work on?

Thanks

Obviously i am working on it as well Having CBT but this nervous thing is making it hard because i dont want anyone to know about my anxiety!

Yes it does help with shaking and racing heart, takes all that away for me too but i still have this annoying nervous energy like i need to fidget! lol i try to resist it but can't seem to for very long...

thanks for replying!

Thanks leonie, i know and have asked my GP for blood tests but he said there is not much point because i have regular periods and if there was a hormone problem i wouldnt be regular! I think i will go back and see a different GP..

Thanks!
