In reply to Any other recommendations for Anxiety?, posted by displaced9 on August 3, 2011, at 14:41:06
My very server anxiety is under control. I'd split the credit between vitimins, medication and discovering the root of my emotional problems in therapy. I'm on the same meds as you, cymbalta 60mg, busbar 10mg x3, welbutrin 100mg, I also take concerta. I take NAC, SAMe, folic acid, selenium, vit C, D3, high potency multi, niacin and omega mood fish oil. I'd say therapy was the key for me. My therapist has helped me in a VERY SHORT amount of time shown me that there is a false belief at the root every time I have anxiety. The solution has been so easy, I just choise to change my beliefs. For example, I have a family court matter pending and when ever I woorked on my legal papers I would shake uncontrolably and get so overwelmed that I couldn't get a thing done, now I found a way to turn the anxiety off, I simply say to my self there is nothing to be afraid of and the anxiety gos away. I started by my changed my thoughts, every time I looked at my legal papers I stopped saying oh my good I can't do it, instead saying those papers can't hurt me and I can do it. I began just by changing the chatter of worry in my head to a more rational dialoge. It's called rational emotive therapy and it is working for me.
