stuart w rosenbush at rush st lukes chicago, none finer unless you travel to cleveland clinics. i stay out of wisconsin. not all docs are bad there, but alot have run to wisconsin to enjoy the "capped" lawsuits law, i think i feel better knowing my dr had better do a good job or he might have to answer for his malpractice. just saying.

I was told many times by many doctors to take up yoga, yoga helps you learn how to relax. The best advise I got from therapy was when you are having an attack to take a deep breath through your nose and to slowly release it out your mouth, and while doing this just keep telling yourself to relax, picture in your head your body relaxing, start with your head and work your way down, it really works.
My mom had relaxation tapes back in the day, they were cassette tapes with anti-anxiety narration and music, she listened to them while she slept. And her one coping mechanism that lasts til this day is she wears a rubber band on her wrist and snaps it when she starts feeling to inward. For her anxiety was due to inward-thinking, hyper focus on herself or things that could happen to herself, etc. The rubber band gets her immediately back to the now, like Gremlin's "this is what is really happening today" mantra.

I forgot to mention the doctor told me to practice this everyday, so when you are just sitting around try getting yourself to relax, do the breathing and slowly relax one part of your body at a time, just start by picturing your head then neck arms fingers etc.... all the way down, then when you have an attack you will know how to do it.
MrsMom if you would like to talk to me about more stuff on this PM me.
Xanax makes my anxiety either go away or lessens it dramatically. Just makes me feel relaxed.
I now take it every night for my Arthritis. However, for a while I was taking it for the occasional anxiety attack.
I swear just knowing I have these are in my medicine cabinet if I need one for an attack makes a huge difference! I ended up in the ER twice with these attacks and it's no fun.
Agreed about behavior modification being one route. I'm trying it now with the hand washing. I've been trying the rubber band thing this week.
Feeling a lot of anxiety about a bridal shower I am going to tomorrow morning. It's for my neighbor. We moved here in Dec. but we're already good friends. The only peeps I will know there is her, her sister and her mother. I've thought about cancelling because sometimes I feel sick thinking about going by myself and not knowing the place and peeps.
She would be really disappointed and I would feel bad. God please help me to pull it together. :surrender:
It's times like these that I wish I had a Xanax. Come to think of it, I know she has some..............would it be weird if I asked her for one? :lol:
Kidding.
