Tightness around neck...

My anxiety is back to haunt me once again. I guess it never really went away but it's really bothering me. Does anyone else ever get that tight feeling around there neck. It goes and come throughout the day. It's really annoying!!

This post is many years old, don't know if anyone is still around.  If it's caused by anxiety, the solution is to fix your anxiety problem.  Therapy might cure it, meds can ease the symptoms, lifestyle changes can make it easier to live with -- and of course none of these things might work at all for you.  So it goes.  But a tight neck is pretty common, it's certainly not something you have to be an anxiety sufferer to have.  It can be caused by poor posture, disc problems, muscle problems, certain exercises, etc.  This is one of the most common human complaints.

It bothers me and it seems to make my anxiety worse. I've been dealing with anxiety for over 3 years now but this tightness is new too me.
