New Anxiety

Hello - I am new and just learning about what is going on with me. I think I experienced the worst day of my life the day after Thanksgiving as that was the beginning of my anxiety situation. I have never experienced this before. I do have a worrier personality and seem to easily fret over everything which is possibly what brought this on. My doctor put me on some Beta Blockers as my blood pressure has gone up as well and he is hoping this will stunt the adrenaline from causing my surges of anxiety everyday. It seems to have worked some but I still feel the underlying physical symptoms - tingling head, dizziness (which could be medication) nausea stomach. Anyway - I am looking toward all of you to give me advice on getting a handle on this. Has anyone tried herbs - such as passion flower? Results? What are some great self - help books out there!

I look forward to getting some help from all of you to get me thru this!
