I have real bad anxiety attacks. I can't
seem to get them under control. I've been
on just about every medication there is.
My husband said to get online and talk to
other people who have the same problem.
Maybe this can help me and maybe I can
help someone else. Thank you

Yes you are definately at the right place,
not the only place... But this is where I
started. Most ppl here have an anxiety
problem or similar.. I have insomnia for
around 6 years and moderate anxiety
problem for 3 years. I have only recently
begun to readup, change my lifestyle, take
medication and I think the most important
of all... To talk to people.
So how long have you had these problems
and what have you done about it already?

try and get involved in a cbt program. It
was the answer for me. I was on meds for
many years before I found cbt and it cured
me and got me off meds in a remarkably
short period of time. Best of all once
you learn the tools in cbt you have them
forever so you are able to give yourself
relief almost instantly whenever you are
feeling stressed, anxious or down. It's
all about using the tools to learn to
think more clearly and accurately about
things and once you do your anxiety, panic
and depression will miraculously begin to
lift before your eyes. Many universities
offer cbt programs for little or no charge
so call the ones in your area. My
favorite starter book on cbt is "been
there, done that? Do this! By sam obitz.
Like anything in life the more you put in
the more you get out of cbt.
Good luck!
