      well if you don't want to take medications. Have you tried the homeopathic path.  Herbs like kava kava or valerian root? Go to a health food store and ask them for herbs for anxiety.  Have you seeked counseling on how to cope and manage?

    I know exactly what your going through! I feel the same! I look at other people and think your so lucky to not have this, but I guess everyone has there own battles! It's hard but you have to stay strong! Almost imbrace and learn to love yourself, boost your confidence and eat a healthy clean diet low on sugar might help! Message me if you need to talk to someone, stay stronge! Xx

    Your not alone Miranda, depression/anxiety is nasty and we all have bad times.

    Are you taking any medication are you having any therapy?

    You might want to think about it if your not and talk to family and friends.

    These forums are great because they make us realise we are not alone and you can get some great advice.

    Take Care

    yes i feel like that too..but confidence is key to curing yourself from anxiety..confidently believe that you're find and convince yourself of positive rather than negative..blame all on anxiety and dont give room for other thoughts..like if you feel symptoms dont think 'what if its heart attack ' think it this way 'its all this stupid anxiety,i survived for so long so its obvious my heart is fine'..confidently blame it on anxiety..you'll be fine..i dont believe you should just live with it,i believe you deserve to kick this anxiety ass so bad that it would never come into your life ever again..i believe you can do it,so is everyone here..dont succumb to it..ever!claim your peace and freedom back..b'cause its yours..

      i think if you be positive you can do it faster,it all depends on individual..but best to stay away from medication..i never took medication and so far i have been suffering for 8 months now..my worries revolves around my heart alot..i get chest tightness sensations and weird feeling around my chest..but i can safely say im much better than what i use to be a couple of months back..i pamper myself..when for a nice massage,get my hair color changed,put on some nice manicure..got tons of facial product to remind myself im young and i should embrace that..i took much longer showers nowadays and just feel the water on me..and every night before i fall asleep,i will remind myself to relax every muscles,i can literally feel my shoulders falling and my jaws relaxing..and it makes a diff cause the next morning i will wake up feeling more rejuvenated..and the moment i wake uo i say a small prayer for day to work out happy and peaceful..

    Remember medication is just an option, you shouldnt feel forced and you dont have to take it.  Therapy is there as an alternative, it often works better.  Meds arent meant for long term use anyways, and should only be used while the root cause is dealt with,. CBT is usually the first therapy given, but its often not very affective, so there are a lot more options.  Just ask your dr to refer you to psychotherapy

      Psychiatry is different from Psychotherapy typically, they tend to be more focused on meds than therapy. It's different the world over though.
