I am new to this site. Hi, my name is Carmela. I also have anxiety! I don't like it very much. I was doing very well on my own a week and 1/2 ago. Last Friday my mother called me crying due to her bad acid reflux, ( I got worried for her and my anxiety symptoms started agian.) The next day I got a phone call that my Grandmotehr died! That made it worse. So, now it feels like it's back again! Lately my disease is my Lungs. When I panic, or even have a single thought about breathing, automatically I feel tht I can't breath. Everything tightens up, My body tremble's, I think i'm going to blackout. I forget of the things to do, like to call on Jesus, or reflexology, etc., Chammomile tea helps to relax me. I don't take any med's. They gave me Buspar the first time. I took it for 3-4 days and
quit. I just didn't want to take med's. It made me feel ok. I felt calm, but I started to feel confusion, I don't like that. Than sometimes anger would creep in.
I pray ,m and read the Bible for answers. Anybody else have good advice. Should we take med's?
