I’ve been on the same antidepressants for my anxiety/depression for about 8 years. The medicine has always worked for me until about 3 months ago when i stopped smoking pot. Now- completely clean i have the worst anxiety that I’ve ever had in my life. I just graduated college (stopped smoking to find a job)- and have moved to a different city since graduation. My body just doesn’t handle change well but I’ve been having pretty regular anxiety attacks and the feeling that “i don’t feel like myself”. It’s just gotten to the point where my anxiety & overthinking controls me and my life- anyone else feel this?

To add onto this- some days i feel completely fine which then makes me feel like I’m going crazy!
I know this will sound silly but have you tried anything like yoga, martial arts, massage, etc?
Not yet! What kind of yoga/massage?
Really any kind as long as it agrees with you. These types of experiences send messages to your brain that you are safe and calms the anxiety.
I’m doing neurofeedback, massage, PT, and chiropractic adjustments. I’m feeling more like myself than I ever have.
(I have a Health Savings Account from work that helps with these. I know you’re looking for a job but you can find free videos on YouTube for yoga and other types of practices to soothe the brain and body. Maybe a massage student needs someone to practice on?)
Not what you're looking for?
