Anixety seeming to go away...

Well, it's been a while since I posted on here so I figured I'd say hello and hope everyone is doing well!
My anxiety has seemed to lessen, as well as the derealization and such. I've been doing yoga EVERY single morning, and stretching before going to bed, and it's seemed to help a lot. I was skeptical at first, but I now feel much better and look more forward to each and every day. I'm really trying to be positive about this, but every time I start to feel good for a week or more, it usually leads to a huge setback (like a random anxiety attack in public or a thought I cling onto). I guess I'm just taking it one day at a time. I really wouldn't wish anxiety on my worst enemy!
Anyway, I hope you've all had at least one peaceful moment this week. I've been keeping you all in my prayers!

Do you take any meds or just exercise?

Sorry for taking forever to reply! I've been busy (for once!)

You're so welcome, Rach! It makes such a difference knowing I'm not alone, or going crazy...lol

The only medication I've ever been on relating to anxiety has been Lunesta for insomnia. However, my body didn't react very well to it and I stopped taking it cold turkey (which I do not recommend - it made my insomnia worse!). I like to jog when the weather is nice, and if not, I'll workout at home or the gym. I know that everyone is different, and for me, I feel much better working out versus medication.

Great news! Do your best to stay in the present, and just enjoy your current state of feeling good!:) Keep up those techniques, they are working!

Thanks for the update and keep posting.

Staying in the present is still a bit difficult but not as bad as when I first posted on here! The techniques are definitely working, I just hope it stays this way. :(

Thank you all for the support, they really brighten up my day (not trying to sound cheesy here, lol!)
