How could I treat my anxiety without medication?

May 18, 2012 Anxiety Discussion

I can’t afford medication, and I don’t want to alienate my boyfriend or the other people I love with my anxiety attacks. Any suggestions?

Chosen Answer:

I suggest EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) I had extreme anxiety and used it. Not only did it help me when I began to have a panic attack, but it also helped me resolve things and understand myself better so, over time, the numbers and severity of the anxiety attacks decreased significantly. Meditation is a good suggestion as well, though it didn’t work as much for me because my mind wanders easily. I have problems focusing. Definitely look into both. This is actually Better than medication because you’re not adding all the chemicals your body doesn’t need. Take it from someone who knows that the hard way.

can i bring prescribed birth control and valium on my emirates flight from US to johannesburg, via dubai?

in reading online, i am very nervous about bringing doctor-prescribed prescriptions for birth control (mini-pill) and also valium (for flying anxiety, to avoid panic attacks). I am also unable to go without birth control, and have a very hard time flying without valium.

both prescriptions have clearly labelled information from the pharmacy that indicates that it they are a prescription.

will i have any trouble with security in dubai?

Chosen Answer:

Birth control pills are ni issue here,but valium is banned and seen as a forbidden drug.
You just have to have an official doctor prescription and let it verify by the UAE embassy in your country. They also can advise you to take it with you or not. Don’t take it for granted. The punishment here carrying valium is severe!!

How long does Valium stay in your system?

My dog has panic attacks and we give him Valium to calm him down but we don’t know how long it stays in his system so we never know when to give him more

Chosen Answer:

This is a human medicine forum. I can tell you about human metabolization of drugs, but I have no idea if it would be the same in a dog. They have slightly different body chemistry than humans, and process drugs differently. May I suggest you ask this question on a veterinary board? You would probably find a Vet who could answer your question. I certainly wouldn’t want to be responsible for killing your dog by giving you the wrong answer.

Anxiety???

April 9, 2012 Anxiety Discussion

Does anyone here have diagnosed anxiety disorders? Do you know any support groups? Have you recovered/improved and how? I have generalized anxiety, panic, and OCD. I’m doing cognitive therapy, but I know having someone understanding would help a great deal. Thanks for any advice.
By the way, I’m in my late twenties and have had anxiety since I can remember (around age 4 or 5).

Chosen Answer:

I do… I am battling it every day. It is so hard… and I feel like I can’t talk to anyone about it! I have a great doctor, so she helps some. I hear going to a conslr. can help, but i feel uncomfortable with that, just isn’t for me. There are lots of online support groups. I think ivillage can be a great resource. Even things like drinking herbal tea, getting sunshine, getting “pampered” at a spa could help. Yoga and meditation have helped me. Also, email me :) I’d love to chat!

anti anxiety meds work well. dont be ashamed to tell your doctor. it is common and can greatly reduce your fears. it happens to everyone (i think) at one time in their life.

What’s the difference between the drug Valium & Xanax? Are they both tranquilizers? Whats the difference?

March 4, 2012 Valium

I suffer from Depression and Panic attacks, I have tryed Xanax and am wondering about the affects of Valium? I hear people who are stressed out say “I need a valium”

Chosen Answer:

They are in the same category of drug, which is the anti-anxyolitic (they are used to moderate anxiety). Valium is older and comes in doses of 2 mg., 5 mg. and 10 mg. Xanax is newer and comes in smaller doses. Xanax may be more addicting, but they both work well for treating panic attacks. The problem is, they don’t work indefinitely at the same dose (the body builds a tolerance for them), and you should avoid drinking alcohol while taking them, as this could result in a black out or in serious problems with judgment (especially around heavy machinery).
