Hi
So I have always suffered with anxiety and low mood. This year I found out I am an Aspie. Not just a little bit but a lot.
Sometimes anxiety or sensory or both cause me to shake. At night, like last night I wake up and I am in the foetal position rocking with anxiety.
So I am considering anti-anxiety meds. But...
1) I am worried they will change my personality for the worse and
2) as a side effect suicide is possible.
Has anyone been on these and what effects have they had.
Forgot to say I also need a lot of exercise to keep me calm.
Same for me - I injured my ankle badly walking too much. Ended up with tendinitis - never thought to do warm up exercises - will in future!
Apparently people with ASD have an issue with feelings and feeling when too much is too much ️
So sorry to hear you have nerve damage. I should be more careful with excessive iPad and iPhone use as this could easily cause me problems.
That is how I (probably permanently) have damaged the nerves in wrists and elbows because I ignored the pain and had decided it was nothing much.
