In reply to anxiety attack- advice needed, posted by zeugma on August 25, 2003, at 18:19:26
I am going to scrap the CBT for now. The exercises I am doing for that therapy, such as writing detailed analyses of anxiety-provoking situations, are themselves causing levels of anxiety that are totally unacceptable and beginning to interfere with my functioning. I am noticing some extremely disturbing symptoms returning so I am going to act now. My appetite has vanished and food-related phobias are becoming intense. I will return to CBT when *Im have an anxiolytic on hand. Until then, I choose social phobia over wasting away.
