anxiety- how to come and recover

[wingedlocket7]

this covers most of the anxiety topics. I am taking citalopram 10mg and they work but i need to know how to stop them all together. If anyone has any ideas of a step by step program to stop it all together comments are most welcome. I am a short term sufferer (about 2 weeks). i hate the way i feel and think. mine are over death, maybe because i lost my Nan to emphysema and lung cancer which spread. i am now old enough to understand what death is and it terrifies me to the core. i feel helpless and not in control.i would give anything ust to ave one normal day or to get back to being my former self.

so can anybody help with ideas to overcome my anxiety and maybe my depression too?

Learn to accept the feelings and thoughts by not giving them any merit. Given it merit is what feeds it and keeps it alive. If you can unconditionaly learn to adapt a "I dont care attitude" towrds those thoughts and feelings, you can lick it. My biggest fear was death as well and by using Dr. Claire Weekes methods of accepting, I have been able to fully resolve those issues.

If youre on meds for them, then you shouldnt be having panic attacks. Is the meds just for depression or something? If its just for depression then I suggest asking your dr about something thats for both. Thats what Im on. Ive got lexapro 10 mg. it works wonders for me. If its for both depression and anxiety and youve been on it for a while then you shouldnt be having any panic attackes at all
