I have been diagnosed with hypercoherence and anxiety following a QEEQ brain map. The map showed excessive posterior beta activity, a pattern consistent with anxiety disorders. Its also showed excessive hypercoherence bilaterally posterior, also consistent with anxiety disorders.
The map was quite shocking as it shows several cross sections of the brain at difference frequencies. Each cross section is colored, green and blue is normal, red yellow orange are abnormal. Seeing all the red at the back of my head allows me to actually see my anxiety.
I have completed about 35 sessions of neurofeedback training and had another 3 brainmaps. Since then i have felt a little better but still need my 0.25mg xanax to take the edge off my performance anxiety condition. I have seen a gradual reduction in the anxiety on the maps (red area shinking and turning to yellow/blue). I am taking slightly longer to "reprogram" than some people but i am still moving in the right direction.
My doctor also tried some EMDR theraphy but could not find any cause/triggers for my anxiety. He has concluded that i was just born with anxiety.
He also offers some self help stuff but does not care if i do it as he is 100% confident the neurotrainning will fix me up. But i am going to try the Sedona method just out of interest. I've already watched the Secret and thought was a nice idea but nahhhhh not for me.
Currently i am working on training the cingulate part of my brain.
The cingulate (pronounced sing-u-lat) is the part of the brain that runs through the middle
part of the frontal lobes and is the “gear shifter” of the brain. It allows you to shift attention
from thought to thought and between behaviors. When this part is over active, people have
problems getting stuck in certain loops of thoughts or behaviors such as repetitive worry.
Hopefully this will work out as I purchased a package to rid me of anxiety from this doctor for $3000.
