i read a book that really helped me a lot.
it's by a guy named Richard Kale who beat
an anxiety disorder without doctors or
medication. the guy was so low at points
that he ended up having to leave college
and was suicidal at points. in the book he
talks about what it took for him to get
better. it's good to know that there is
someone out there that has overcome the
same problems that you have. i feel a lot
more confident that i can get better. he's
a really intelligent guy. he gives out his
email with the book so people can talk to
him. it's ric
hard.e.kale@gmail.com. he's a really
friendly guy. i talk with him regularly.
the book is only $5. he has a day job, but
spends a lot of time trying to help people
with anxiety disorders. i suggest the book
to anyone .he recieves hundreds of emails
a day and returns them all.

That sounds a lot like the book we used in
my group by sam obitz. Is this one also
cbt based? If not what was his key to
getting better? Did he ever go the med
route? Obitz was on meds for years before
he got better with cbt. I found it very
helpful to read the words of people that
had overcome their problems with anxiety
and depression that do not read like
textbooks. Thanks for sharing.

Zam it would be nice to hear what Kale did
if you see this reply. I am really curious
if it was cbt or something else?

Cind, be careful with those tranquilizers.
It sounds like you took different kinds
together and that is not safe! Try and
find a cbt group in your area as panic
attacks that come from out of the blue are
common and if you learn to catch the
thoughts you have that lead to panic you
can begin to expose them and counter them
and your panic will disappear

i hope you are okay now because mixing
tranquilizers is like playing with fire.
Give cbt a try and you might be able to
get off tranquilizers for good.

It's been awhile since your last post here
Cind are you doing better now? I hope you
are and try and stay off those
tranquilizers and definitely do not mix
them anymore!
