Thanks but my …
Thanks but my anxiety is going away without the meds. You have had yours for 3 years? Have you gotten any better? My doctors said that benzodianzapines are just to help for awhile tell you can relax a little and get to the root of the problem. Do you go to therapy or anything?

My last attack was …
My last attack was 1990…..How would you like to go twenty years Matt without having another panic attack? Also, I haven’t drank alcohol since 94′,no cigarettes, but a ton of coffee….I love coffee…I love the anxious buzz it gives me.
Actually it’s the clarity…of perception…Thats all anything really is, anyhow…How you see it..

When you get drunk, …
When you get drunk, you break the cycle and repetition of tedious insanity…Go ahead and binge for two weeks…or do something that will cause an interval of time long enough in between attacks so the attacks themselves will slowly lose their intensity and eventually dissolve..
For myself, it was working in a hectic kitchen, staying extremely busy, and drinking my face off… It worked .They become like trickles and I gently pulled away(flight) and said

Are you saying that …
Are you saying that you’re not serious about having anxiety issues? That you are just pretending in the video? I don’t understand.

The thing to …
The thing to realise about panic & anxiety is that it is YOUR BODY (as a vehicle) & not YOU that is having it. Its a PHYSIOLOGICAL thing, just like if you got really low blood sugar. Be patient with your body when it is undergoing this. YOU are the part with unique & privileged AWARENESS of the BODILY STATE. YOU can use the FACTUAL KNOWLEDGE accumulated in memory regions of your brain, including the knowledge that anxiety is physiological & REASSURE the flight/fight part of your mind.

Hi Sorry to hear …
Hi Sorry to hear about the anxiety disorder, I understand, I have had a panic disorder for over 20 years and they still scare me, but they are a learned behavior I know they are, you have trained your body somehow to react to the bad sensations you get in your body, alcohol will help for the moment, but it will comeback to bite you later and make the anxiety worse. Trust me I have done it. What sucks is it’s a day by day thing, just remember it won’t kill you.

Over-ride(force) …
Over-ride(force) the “mode” of anxiety, then as it confronts you, ease away..If it goes through you , even better…This helps build resistence, and the more times you do this, the less impact the shockwaves have, until you shake then off, like a child, awekening in the middle of the night trembling from a nightmare..The child builds resistence to the following nightmare, saying to himself”go back to sleep”, It was “only” a bad dream..He over-rides the anxiety mode..This is the healing process.
