Hi guys I some times post a few things on here to help people I know anxiety it a complex subject and I know everybody suffers from anxiety for diffrent reasons e.g stress but recently I've been doing research about diet and anxiety... My diet was disturbing months ago I would eat absultue sh*te!! Take aways most nights and drinking a lot of coke I noticed my anxiety was bad and I also suffered from heart palputaion! Due to my change of diet eating lots of fruit and eating foods high in vitamin C has really made a difference I'm going to post some foods that can help people..... Thanks for reading guys smile

    Probably the only thing I do right is my diet.....I'm very open to new foods tend to stay with fruits and veggies although every now and then I crave and need a steak.

    i got a blender and I do a lot of fruit veggie juicing. My anxiety might be bad but hey my diet is pretty good. The only natural substance I've tried that ever helped my anxiety is cayenne pepper..I pop a couple of those and feel pretty relaxed.

    at the moment my ability to afford much of anything is in the sh*tter. Nothing much new for me....

    Yes! I have a long list off u tube videos I do for free. I do guided mediation. I sometimes do rain fall and thunder for sleep smile I really enjoy doing hypnosis for anxiety. I try a few different ones and then I find my favorite and kinda stick with it. I do have an iPad which really helps because I just lay down and put in ear buds.

    i take advantage of so many great videos. I also see a therapist and I habe gone to group therapy and this one is the best. The group leader leads all of us to live in the NOW. I've read eckhart tolle, and I really agree because it helps me to try to live in the moment. So much out there for everyone. I'm not religious but I do believe in God. I don't see many on these posts that speak of religion as helping them. Maybe they don't want to preach. I just keep digging till I get there I guess. Still I have taken medication as there was no way around it. I am now coming off my medication. It's difficult but it did help me for awhile get back to sleeping and eating...I was missing the most basic items for life smile

    so, I'm hoping I won't need meds after I'm done with this one. I won't know. I'm on the aspergers spectrum, so I think anxiety might be an issue for me till I die. It's okay though. I'm ok with it, if it goes away I'm very good with that!
