I want to encourage others struggling with panic issues to seek out a Reiki Master. Don't go to just anyone; you have to be able to trust entirely. I've been taking hour and a half sessions every other week for 4 sessions now. Last night after having a profound afternoon session I was able to sleep without being jolted awake in panic. I'm also experimenting with 400 mg of magnesium citrate with dinner which seems to be helping.
Still got a long way to go, tho.

Also want to encourage members here to post for the benefit of us all! Thank you to those who take the time to share. This is a frustrating, expensive, time consuming path made a bit easier by our combined research. Thank you!

FTH,

I am so glad you are experiencing relief with your new coping skills!

Great work on finding what works for you...and thanks for sharing!

For my recovery, it has been a combination of CBT, and mix of self help that I found resonated with how my brain is wired up. I used my library, purchased books and scoured the internet for a combination, custom made for myself. I find Breathing exercises and positive mantras to be key.

The support here of course has been and IS an integral component to my wellness too!.:)

Keep posting!

Have you found any particular supplements or dietary measures effective?

Just a healthy diet in general....

...and I get a lot of physical exercise. I am sure that is also a key factor!

I agree. Now that spring is getting closer in my area I try to force myself to walk at least around the block, further if I can manage. And during my walk I am mindful of my thoughts and try to be aware of my blessings. I consider every little positive thing a thread in the cloth of recovery that I'm trying to weave for myself. It's my version of "One Day (step) at a Time".

I need this so much right now!! Where do you get the magnesium? And where can i find a reiki master?

Hi, cola. You'll find magnesium at any health food store on online. I encourage you to research what more users have to say about their experience. I originally learned about magnesium in a forum for anxiety on the website webmd.com. And, I want to stress that this supplement by itself is not my miracle pill.
Re: Reiki - if you live in or near a fairly large city that has alternative medicine, health food stores, etc. you'll probably be able to find a practitioner by searching online for reiki and the name of your city or closest. Or check public bulletin boards at nearby whole foods / health food stores.

Sending you encouragement and best wishes for healing!

Wonderful thank you for the information! I just got the ok to start easing into working out so Im definitely interested in yoga and Reiki!

Both excellent choices to pursue! Remember the ant's answer to the question, "how do you eat an elephant?"
"One bite at a time".
I'm rooting for you!

I support reiki for healing. I've had it in the past but not lately.

What I am doing (among other things) is hands on healing. I found a wonderful woman that does this and I feel better for days after having a session. She gives me information to live on and is so kind and loving towards me.

I might just try a reiki session again after heaing good things from here.
