A Compulsion I Can Count On
This morning I started off work by checking out user bug reports, getting my morning coffee, and chatting with coworkers about bad 1980's movies. I'm weird, sometimes annoying, always quirky, but fairly normal. I'm an entirely different person than I was less than an hour ago. 8:00 AM I'm ready

Read more…Anxiety Symptoms????
I have back pains, stomach pains sometimes, feel like I have skin burns, feel like I am wearing socks of needls on my legs (knee down), feel like my skin on my face is numbing. Sometimes when it gets worse i feel like I have hot blood going thru my veins, also I feel inside like my body is screaming, but when you look at me you wouldn't know something is wrong. I also feel like I have something stuck in my throat and pressure in my ears. Sometimes at night I feel chills and during the day I also fill like chills going from the lower back to the legs, that is when my anxiety is kicking in again. I have taken every test at the doctor and everything came back normal and a lot of people tell me that is based on the nervous system. Oooooh i am so tired of it :(

Read more…ADD / ADHD vs. Guilt Driven Anxiety and Depression
Does Synaptol alleviate chronic anxiety, fear, insomnia, poor concentration, lethary and inattention if taken concurrently with an MOAI like Seratonin Re-uptake Inhibitor like SERZONE and TRANXENE? I take 150 mg. and 7.5 mg respectively each night. I believe I was likely misdiagnosed in 1987 as having "Obsessive, compulsive, perfectionistic personality traits along with chronic guilt, low self-esteem and a lack of a sustaining connection with God. I was convinced I had ADD at the time (from kindergarten through high school and all my life), but my psychiatrist back then insisted the treatment for HIS diagnosis was different, i.e. taking the MOAI and anxiety meds. I turned 60 recently, have been unemployed for 22 months and am terrified of setting myself up for failure once more, so having a tough time finding work. I saw a Psychologist last week and he thinks I have ADD or ADHD. I've read the book "Driven to Distraction" by Edward M. Hallowell, M.D. and John J. Ratey, M.D., and I can virtually relate to 90% of the symptoms case studies presented. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Trish O.
Read more…Can anxietin help with the side effects of Zoloft?
Could a coach help me out? I have started on Zoloft for anxiety and have been on 50mg for nearly a week. It might have been better to have started on 25mg but I'm here now. Side effects I'm having include nausea, diahorrea, cold sweats in bed (mostly close to time due to take medication) and some increased anxiety. I have been taking some homeopathy but would like to know if Anxietin will help with these side effects too, as they are all anxiety-triggered. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
