Anxiety
« on: November 18, 2014, 08:51:38 PM »

I'm fairly new here to this site and have very much appreciated those of you sharing about anxiety issues.  Anxiety is by far my worst symptom.  My question is that sometimes I think it is just me and my thinking that brings this on.  For years I have had some problems with anxiety but nothing like this.  However, I try and be positive.  My life for the most part is good.  A job I can work at home, finances OK, diet very good, exercise everyday, good friends, etc.  No reason to be this anxious as far as basic things in my life.  Dr.'s, and others have told me it is the hormones.  I posted a couple days ago that since this last summer my symptoms are the worst they have ever been.  I am having night sweats every night accompanied with anxiety.  I think the anxiety would lessen if I didn't think I was causing it!!  Would like to hear any comments.  I needed some relief so I am using Beta Blockers.  Thanks for any input.  I am 59 and thought all of this would be long gone by now!!

Anxiety can be debilitating! don't ever under-estimate the cause and effect!

BBs help me.  I take 40mg at night.  With an Anti-depressant too.  Relaxation therapy and Rescue Remedy can also help.
