note:  herbal remedies are sometimes even worse than prescription drugs.. and have their own share of side effects.  the real solution was built into your design..  humans need exercise and sunshine..  body chemicals get messed up if we don't get that physical activity..  try the real fix.. instead of quick easy fixes..  its harder work.. but you will be a believer if you try it.. even one time.  :)

your symptoms sound almost exactly like what i was experiencing..  i tried all kinds of anxiety meds like xanax and clozapine and every other benzo..

My anxiety and the attacks became unmanageable and happening more and more frequently..  honestly i considered killing myself.. because of the constant worry and fear of it happening in public.. i really wanted to die.  I saw 3 doctors.. they only helped with giving me more drugs.   then i figured it out.. and as the quote states.. "Medice, cura te ipsum!"  Heal Thyself.  I did just that.  

the solution was easy.. and don't just scoff and write me off like some exercise nut..   but REALLY helped me.. was exercise..  and not just an easy jog on the treadmill..  I'm talking serious exercise.. where you push yourself as far as you feel like your body will go.. then just a little past that.   I initially rode a bike.. for what seems like 100miles..  i was driven.. and even hoping that i would have a heart attack.. and just not worry anymore.. but i didn't die..
i felt completely spent.   THat was the first time in months that i slept good, and felt "OK" like things were alright.. and the fear and anxiety was finally at bay.


so.. if you REALLY want a cure.. and are sick of the anxiety and depression.. this is how you really fix it.. and not just a pharmaceutical band-aid that only masks the symptoms.   if you seriously want change.. then try it.  i promise if you do it.. and REALLY go all out.. until you can't go anymore..  you will be fixed..  try it.  believe.

Do research on the internet. If you ignore the loonies and everybody selling merchandise, you will find a hard core of useful information. That is where I found my candidiasis. Then I asked my doctor to have me tested. He did and the results were a great big positive.
