My anxiety is flaring up and I don't know why.

[Brooklynnot99]

6 years ago I experienced my first panic attack. My anxiety had gotten so bad I Couldn't do regular activities like drive my car, go to the grocery store, I couldn't leave the house without having an attack. I had went to a doctor she had put me on Prozac it helped a lot. I worked the problems that were causing my anxiety and got off all medications and have been anxiety free for the most part. But now I'm getting flare ups and I don't know why. It scares me because I don't want to go back to that place I don't have control over my body. Anxiety isn't as bad as it used to be I don't want to rely on medication How can I stop these minor attacks?

Hi, I can identify with you wholeheartedly. I am recovering at present to be able to drive and just do things 'solo'. I was on diffetent prescriptions but to no avail.

Presently, I take Adrenal Health and Zenmind, both natural supplements. They work for me.

I am reading a book by Claire Weekes and I am reading one by Dr Wayne Dyer. YouTube both of them and you will be pleasantly surprised by the information.

I have also checked out a YouTuber 'Wonderbro', he is an advocate of Claire Weekes.

I exercise and maintain proper rest because when I don't it seems like everything causes anxiety.

Also, chamomile or lavender tea helps to relax me during the day.

You have come so far and I am proud of you!
