Hi there,My name is Beth and I just felt that I should go on an anxiety forum and share my cure with others in case it helps them. I had Anxiety for 20 years, huge adrenaline rushes when going off to sleep, heart racing etc etc Hurrendous!!! About four months ago I started taking Iron and got rid of 90% of my symptoms even though I wasn't anaemic, but my iron(ferratin) stores were very low but within the normal range, so I suggested to my doctor that i try taking iron. After this I was inspired, so I thought it would be a good idea to see if I was low in any other vitamins and so I went to a nutritionist who said to me in the very first meeting that I should try going strictly gluten and dairy free. I was very sceptical that this could help emotional problems and i certainly didn't have any pain when digesting but i followed her advice and I was shocked to find that I recovered 100% but I have to be strict with the diet. At one point I stopped taking the iron from the doctor as it was giving me loose stool and I tried floradix but I wasn't absorbing the iron from this so then I tried spatone, again, I wasn't absorbing the iron from this so I tried Biocare Iron (the epa complex one) which works really well.

Sounds brill news for you. Going to see a nutritionist about herbal medicines in may for a free consultation so going to see if get any good ideas from him. Do use essential oils and find them calming.
