Hello everyone - not sure if anyone reads these forums threads anymore. I recently purchased CD package and looking for some guidance. I fought anxiety and panic attacks back in 2010 and was able to get through it by taking medication and support from family/friends. But recently it came back. I'm worried that I will never be able to get my life back on track. I just want to feel normal again. Besides listening to the CDs do you guys do anything different that helps?

Also, I hope that maybe I can find a buddy here which may be going through the same thing or has gone through it.

Thank you. Here's hoping for the best.

BigEd, This website is a big help.No matter how bad you think your anxiety is you can find posts relating to you. Exercise is a must.Nothing all that hard just keep it simple.Read a good book or watch a funny show, sing along with a favorite song. Do anything to occupy your mind. Here's something that helped me---repeat to yourself over and over---ANXIETY DOES NOT CONTROL ME---and do it out loud.I visit the sight as often as I can,Maybe I will catch you in the mini chat.Good luck and remember it's just anxiety. ;)

Thanks Randy! I appreciate the words of encouragement. I wasn't sure if this site was still active. I'm glad I can talk to someone here.

Today was not a great day. I usually walk in the mornings but today I had to do a double just to help me get through it. I guess there will be days like this.

Thanks again for reaching back to me. I have to find out more about those chat sessions. I didn't know there were some available.
