Treating Anxiety that is Controlling my Life
Posted: 01-29-06 09:25am

I suffer from panic attacks and anxiety, i often find my self with head aches(occassionaly jaw aches), aches and pains in my arms and legs and pains and discomfort in my chest. i also find i get a tingly feelin in my hands and feet as well as finding i tire easily after doing simple tasks such as walkin up stairs. Is their anything i can do in terms of natural remedies which could help me get my life back on track as i often feel that my condition is begining to control my life.

None of your symptoms seem to be caused by a real disease; it is possible that everything is in your mind. You must first realize that you are not ill. Treatment of this condition is very complex. You will need great self-confidence, support from your family and friends and proper help from a mental health professional. I believe more in psycho-therapy than in pharmaceutical drugs.
