Hi I suffer from severe anxiety and daily panic attacks. I have been on numerous medications and had CBT none of which has helped. The physical symptoms are difficult to deal with and I feel desperate. Has anyone out there tried The The Linden Method which claims to completely cure all anxiety disorders. I am willing to give it a try but I would love to hear from anyone who has tried it already.

I suffered from severe post natal anxiety and health anxiety that led to me having daily panic attacks and horrendous physical symptoms - I felt as though I was losing my mind and that I was dying from some horrendous terminal illness or disease; I ached from head to toe and experienced every catastrophic symptom of so many different illnesses and ailments, which didn't help the matter at all lol - I tried various "therapies" including a little CBT and medications but the only thing that helped me was Diazepam, low dose at 5 mg a day for about a week or two and it nailed it and helped me get things on an even keel once again - I was hen in a position to be able to look at self help books and only had the Diazepam on a need to have basis, ( basically if things were getting bad again or a panic attack looked imminent) - they didn't sedate me, they just made me feel normal again; relaxed! Now I barely need to take them - probably, only if I'm going to travel on the motorway for example. To me they were brilliant in calming me to the point where I could actually begin to address the issues behind it all - a very good book is one by a Dr Claire Weekes "self help for your nerves" - it's a little old fashioned but it is absolutely brilliant for making you realise how the body reacts to anxiety and how to combat it - highly effective and I would recommend it to anyone in a similar position. Hope you start to feel better soon

Hi. I also suffer from anxiety and depression as well as chronic pain disease. I have not tried the Linden method although I have heard of it. I just get so tired of trying things and being disappointed when they don’t work. Please let us know if you try it and whether or not it helps. I wish you good luck and healing.

The Linden Method is an organization founded by an ex anxiety sufferer, Charles Linden who claims he can cure all forms of anxiety and related problems. Google him he runs workshops has residential retreats and books and videos you can work through at home. Seems too good to be true and expensive. His books got mixed reviews so afraid I have not tried anything he offers yet.
