Yes!!!
try Acupuncture(it totally helped calm me down), herbal relax, bachs rescue remedy(its from herbs), meditation, positive self talk, cognitive thereapy, yoga, massage, self hypnosis, reflexology, exercise, and yes even sex! (that is if the med hasnt taken that ability away,,if this is in the picture).. anyways. these are some of the things you could try .. ALL are safe and take them from a reputable source(ie, a herbalist) or good health food store.
I myself have taken the above herbs (except for the rescue remedy).. and NO symptoms.. no addictive qualities.. It helped me when I was really struggling and no side effects... YES..try this
I know that my anxiety was worse when I was on amytriptylene , then really escalated when I was briefly on Paxil(really bad) , then a constant agitation/anxiety when on Remeron..I found what helped me the most of all the things was acupuncture..I have a very good one I see. but I only have to go monthly now(just maintenance) as I have gotten the drugs out of my system and have been on detox program.
if you are on some med, it may indeed be the cause of your anxiety..
I know you havent agreed with all my posts, but hey im just tryin to help man.. a safer way.
and you wont know if something will help unless you try it..and believe in yourself ok??
