has anyone tried meds,therapy and holistic remedys?

Hi

I have personally not tried holistic remedies but have heard other members talking about them so hopefully one of them will be along soon to answer that. Have you ever tried CBT therapy?

Hibee

We have on-line CBT in our Resource Guide! You can just register, then go at your own pace. There is also a separate link for downloads of CBT worksheets if you want to give that a try.

I have used a combination of therapy and natural suppliments...however, I am absolutely in favor of medication if it is needed! I personally just chose to approach it as trying the former first to see if that worked, and for me it did, but everyone is different.

You will need to work with your presrcibing doctor if you want to try the natural suppliments, because natural does not automatically mean safe! Especially in combination with other Rx's.

Whatever you decide, I wish you the best and hope that it works for you:)

...and on a separate note...

I am again, so glad that you are home! Was you own bed and pillow the best thing in the world or what?!

How are you holding up with the anxiety now that you are out of the hospital...is it better/worse, the same? I hope better!

Keep us posted and rest and heal!:)

I know exactly how you feel...when I had my first daughter, I had high blood pressure. They kept me in the hospital after she was born to monitor me...well just being in the hospital kept it elevated! Like you said, they would come in and wake me out of a dead sleep...scaring me half to death...to take it;(

I finally checked myself out after a week, bought a home monitor, and low and behold, it went down. I was scared at first, being home 'unsupervised', but quickly relaxed and was so glad to be out of the hospital.

Nothing against the hospital or the staff, but it is just not a place where I can be comfortable!

Hope you are feeling well:)
