Look into iodine supplementation. I take SSKI and magnascent. You can get added information as to the benefits of iodine with regard to anxiety and panic conditions in the iodine forum. Have your thyroid checked. Sometimes this is the reason for anxiety, as is an iodine deficiency.
Last but not least, take a look at your diet. What are you eating? Eliminate sugar, processed foods, fast foods, junk foods, sodas, fried foods, etc. Keep in mind that those of us with anxiety tend to be hypoglycemic. The proper diet is very important. Eat as many raw fruits and vegetables as possible. Your diet should consist of 80% raw, 20% cooked, consisting of chicken, turkey, and fresh water fish. Turkey is a very relaxing food, as contains L-Tryptothan. The temporary relaxation that you get from eating harmrful carbs, is just that. "Temporary." What they are actually doing is physically contributing to those symptoms. One more thing. If, by chance, you are relying on alcohol for relief, stop. Alcohol is poison to anyone with an anxiety disorder and will turn on you. Continued use of alcohol will result in actually triggering those dreaded panic attacks.
And I just want to leave you with one finaL thought. Please take heart. I was in the exact same place that you are back in the 1980's. Yet, I want to tell you that there is complete healing. You just have to find what will work for you. Also, don't give up on the emotional aspect. It is very important for emotional healing to also take place. If the source is not eliminated, the disorder will not go away. Resolving emotional issues cannot be done overnight. I will reiterate that resolving these issues takes time. Please don't give up on this.
I wish you my very best,
Luella
