Anxiety, Back pain clicking.

Hi everyone
basically, I have had bad anxiety. I have twitches in my head, and eye, and I also get bad back pain, neck pain, and sometimes hip pain. I can't stop popping and clicking them. Dr's just say it's anxiety. But I can't go on like this. It's effecting me getting jobs, and meeting people, I used to be so confident. And I don't know how to not be weird and get it back! I also always feel tired. I feel like the drs think I am a idiot!! but I am weird and not how I used to be!

What kind of doctors?  Anxiety can make pain feel worse, but the body pain could still be the result of many things, including doing exercises incorrectly or problems from an old auto accident or a host of things.  The twitches are a different matter, but pain is the body saying something is wrong.  Anxiety isn't always the answer, though it can make pain worse than it should feel.  That's why I ask, what kind of doctors?  And it is important to know if you're on medication -- that can cause body pain and twitches as well.
