kortnie,

I am sorry to read this but that is how anxiety likes to work...........think back to what was working for you and try a couple of things.  Don't get stuck in "what if"

thoughts.  Just let the anxiety wash right over you and out the door.  Do not give the anxiety the power to ruin your day.

Hugs,

Kitt

kortnie what kitt is telling you is the way to gain strength over this condition, to get stronger you have to learn how to take away anxiety's power, which comes from you, it has nothing else to keep it going except us. One of the Moderators it may have been Kit said "we have anxiety, anxiety does not have us" I know how hard it is to do this but the first time you shut down one of these attacks you will develop a new understanding and an appreciation for your own empowerment over them. "They have no power except fear". You will be ok do some simple things count backwards read scripture anything that demands your attention. Is it snowing up there?

Larry,  Good memory my hero !  " We have anxiety, Anxiety does not have us" Like all disorders we are not our diagnosis.  We are people that have anxiety and we can learn to be the CEO of ourselves.

When anxiety creeps in, face it and let it pass through making sure to kick it to the curb on it's way out.

Happy Sunday All,

Kitt

Thanks guys I'm trying! I hate being at home alone have have been alone most of the day my comfort is having someone with me at all times :-(

Do you remember me asking you about, do you have anyone with
you, i realize it is not always practical to have someone 24/7 but
keep someone near as possible or be able to call someone you can
talk with, in the early stages it makes it a little more comfortable.
we have a member who is really suffering and she is alone constantly, it breaks my heart. Peace

I absolutely hate it.. I guess I kinda brought my self out of an attack but it was nothing! I was doing so good I was eating almost normal then for some reason last night after taking my vistral for bed I just couldn't sleep felt dizzy got hot and felt like I was gonna vomit I got a pal and everything now today I just feel worse I've had a Migrane for the last three days its HORRIBLE.. I tried the panic away program and that obviously didn't work ugh I'm just ready for it to end and I get back to my normal life

I had that same experience but mine lasted for two weeks. And I was upset when it came back but learned that I am just fine and that it was all in my head. Perhaps just like me it's Gods way of telling you that you are perfectly healthy but with that knowledge you can take it upon yourself to defeat anxiety:)

Hi,
I'm so sorry you're feeling this way. I have noticed that when I get migranes my anxiety levels peak. I want to see a neurologist because I want to ensure that migranes aren't triggering more anxiety. Are you taking medication for this anxiety? Drink chamomile tea, valerian tea, and linden tea. That helps calm down the nervous system too. I'm actually going to have some linden tea tonight as I've been struggling with anxiety for the past couple of days. Keep the faith going, God will help us get through this.

Sorry this is an aside but does tea really help calm the mind?

Thank you jazz no I don't take medicine I'm trying to do without it! I've been told Chamomile tea does wonders there's just so many I don't know which one to get lol.. Jocipher I've been told that by so many but yet to try it I've Hurd chamomile tea and also a multi vitamin with vitamin b12 I heard it almost works like a medication would :-) I went and bought flint stone vitamins I'm gonna try those

Chamomile tea, Linden tea and Valerian root tea are all good. Omega 3 Fish Oil is also great for anxiety. When I feel too agitated I take 2 three times a day. It should be part of the regular diet, try it.

Is it just a pill or is it actually oil cuz I hate fish and if it taste like it I'll gag lol
Posted 7/15/2013 1:21 AM (GMT 0)
I take Omega 3 Fish Oil pills to go to bed and with food so that the pills mix with the meals. Trust me, it works. Give it a try and let me know how it goes.
