> This anxiety is killing me. I can't even drink a glass of water without feeling sick. I feel nauseated ALL the time. I don't sleep because I am afraid of the panic attacks. They come every night. Terror, inability to breathe, throat closing up, nausea, dizziness, vomiting. It's happening every night and it's happening every day. I'm taking the klonopin and it helps a little but my prescription only allows for .5mg a day so I take it sparingly. I don't want to suffer withdrawal either so I'm afraid to take alot of it. I don't have anything else. I don't have a doc. I don't know what to do. I spent two years like this about 9 years ago. I threw up several times a day, I had persistent health problems, I couldn't eat anything but lettuce. I lost 25 pounds which wasn't so bad but that put me into anorexic mode and I continued in that behaviour for quite some time after. I stayed severly underweight for years. This anxiety is causing me now to eat very little. Broth, a little water, mostly crackers. I feel horrible all the time.
> What can I do? Herbs? Vitamins? Help...Tina,
I don't have any answers, but I understand what you're feeling. Sometimes all I can do is say I care, a lot. I hope that's enough...
Love you,
Greg
