When you were getting better, did your anxiety symptoms vanish just like that, overnight, or it took some time even when you felt you overcame your anxiety completely?
So I've had anxiety for some time but lately I've been feeling a whole lot better every day - I don't have panic attacks for some time, no derealizations anymore, I also don't feel anxious almost at all. Even though, when I'm completely relaxed and not stressed, I still experience muscle twitches some 10-15 times a day (fasciculations) or headaches. Is it something to worry or just the fact that I consciously feel alright doesn't mean my nervous system is back to normal and I should just wait longer?
Yeah one night I looked up at the sky and I wished upon a star that I would be anxiety free, and woke up with it totally gone!Quote:

Worrying or panic never helps anyone with anything.
thank you>>>>>
Hey, thank you and one more question, if you could: when you were finally on the right path to curing your anxiety, was it a constant uphill or you still had days when you felt as if you made a two steps backwards rather than another step forward? Cause I was getting better and better for a few days and then suddenly yesterday and today's morning felt somehow as if I took my symptoms to a month ago when they were a lot worse. The only difference was I knew what they were so I was far from a panic attack - still, I was really anxious for these almost two days even though I thought it won't ever be back to this state. Now it seems as getting back on the right track from three days ago. Did you also experience such fluctuations when everything seemed fine and suddenly one or two days were really bad?
Careful with Biotin if you are acne prone, that stuff will form some monster zit-welts.
This is great. I have anxiety for more than two years now. I had counseling for a little bit. It helped a little. They prescribed lorazepam and sertraline and I don't take any of it because I'm worried about the side effects. I will look into taking those supplements you mentioned. I now just take a multivitamin (centrum) every day or when I remember. Before anxiety I loved coffee. And now don't drink it as often, but yes I should stop. I also drink alcohol, I also need to stop for now. I know I can be cured. Thanks so much for this. I will look for chamomile tea next time I'm at the store. "Fck this anxiety". :) Best regards
Thanks for the useful information..
thank you for the post. well written
This seems to be a useful article cheers to contributors!
Has anyone read that anxiety lie book? It seems really intriguing but expensive
Great Post. Congrats to you as well. Thank you. Peace to all.
I have not... Try Been there,done that, Do This! by Sam Obitz it's short inexpensive and easy. It is based on CBT and if you use the exercises you will likely have success. The TEA form exercise in it has changed my life for the better.Quote:

He was certified by Buteyko himself so its a good read and it came with a meditation mp3 I used to practice 2 or more times a day. Basically, you breathe less and create a tolerable air hunger. It is contrary to what we've been taught of course. That is why it works! Breathing too much makes this whole fight or flight mechanism much worse! In some way or another, look into Buteyko breathing for anxiety. I basically used to use the MP3 that came with the book or I would just do as a meditation relaxing my mind little by little, trying to get my breathing less and less. Until I felt a slight but tolerable air hunger. I would keep that for as long as I could. Usually about 30 minutes. After some time, the CO2 would get rebalanced in my blood, and Oxygen would get delivered to all my cells I would get warm and feel incredible. I would feel my body nourished by oxygen like never before. It is always important to breathe through your nose! I Would do walks with my mouth closed and breathing through your nose. That helps to rebalance the carbon dioxide as well. There's a bit more to it, so I hope you tale some time to research it yourself.
Stress,
The buteyko high feels amazing!!! One of the nicest feelings I've ever felt. It was like an opiate high!
YW! That was sweet of you to be so appreciative. I'm a big believer that if any of my posts help one person even a little it is worth the effort :)Quote:

There are some real useful advices in this thread.
I will try some of them out.
Hey everyone my name is Mark and I am really tense from the problem of anxiety and i wanted to eliminate this problem because panic attacks are becoming cause of social anxiety for me.Recently in a restaurant i suffer from panic attack and it become the cause of embarrassment in front of al my friends and public. These panic attacks are leading to stress and are becoming the cause of severe stress for me. Therefore i need suggestions for everyone
Thank you! It was very comforting reading this! I'll definitely reread your post over and over when I am feeling like my anxiety is taking over.
Looks like a lot of you took my Buteyko advice. I'm impressed! Patrick McKeown's book and a Skype conversation I had with him definitely was huge in helping my anxiety. A lot of the advice I got that was also tremendous in helping me overcome my anxiety was from the Eastern Essentials founder that makes the Calm and Relaxed Remedy. I just received an email that he now has a complete Heal Anxiety Package and there is a free video he made on the web page now with some incredible advice. I thought I would let you guys know. I am still anxiety free after a few years now. His product and methods were some of the keys in helping me get there.
Check out the free video:

I still am anxiety free and I still never get panic attacks. My methods do work. But I received an email from the Eastern Essentials guy, since I am on his email list, about his new video and Heal Anxiety Package, so I decided to post it here for you guys.
Good Luck!
Wow well thats great... i love reading success stories and love reading threads that tell how people come over the bad anxiety, and are able to get over it from within. It seems hard to do so... and at point one feels so down, but i know need to keep trying...Overall am doing better am glad... I just cant seem to learn the breathing techniques thing...
Wish u all health and happiness...and keep posting positive threads and tips too... :)
I was hoping people would try out some of the stuff I did, but really, get an idea how to approach anxiety and to go full speed healing mode. Also this can help people not waste time on some of the trial and error I did already,
Those are all great tips! Glad you found something that works for you and I use many of the things you suggest as well in concert with the CBT thought countering exercises like the TEA forms etc. Keep up the good work!Quote:

I have been so wrapped up with thinking I'd never get better, and that I need medication or treatment for the rest of my life even though I'm still relatively young and it seemed kinda hopeless. This feels like a very humble and honest success story and it gives me hope. Maybe I can be functional again in one year.
I'll have to read through some of the pages and garner some more of these good feelings.
I am still anxiety free and this is how I did it. I left some things out as it was already a long post. I was trying to show my path so others can form their own path based on what I did. You do not have to be 100% without fear, or even be 100% free of anxiety, but you want to be 100% anxiety disorder free. I mean, if you are in a burning building you won't sit down and say "Oh well, I am not scared." You will use the anxiety-fight or flight response to give you extra powers to get out. That is the fight or flight mechanism in its correct form not as a disorder.Quote:

Thank you so much!
I am bookmarking this!
Great tips! It's quite difficult to find chamomile in where I'm living now though (Singapore)
I wish that were true, but most people will not go through this trial and error on their own. One of my main points in my post was if you get in the mindset of full speed ahead and you will be anxiety free no matter what is so key, yet most people are not willing to do that, spend the money I spent, time I spent, put in the effort I spent, so I lay out a template they can use to make it easier for them. The goal here is really to create a healing path not exactly, but based on what I did. But some programs along the way I want to encourage such as that Eastern Essentials Heal Anxiety Package, the Buteyko breathing book by Patrick McKeown, Chamomile tea, passionflower extract, yoga, etc.Quote:
