Anyone doing Natural remedies for anxiety

[ShanZ1978]

Hi

I am in the process of weaning off of Klonopin (I know not fun!) but I am taking a supplement of 5HTP and Gaba to help with the process and take in place of any antidepressants and benzos. I wanted to know if anyone out here is doing natural supplements and self help therapies as well. I still have a hypnotherapist and a prescribing psychologist but I wanted to see if diet and exercise would help me that much more along with praying.

Welcome any suggestions and thoughts.

Thanks!

I started with anxiety about 12 years ago. It gets progressively worse if left untreated. If you notice that it is getting worse I would see someone for CBT, I say that since it is still early and that may be the best treatment, but there are others out there as well. I am currently taking 5HTP which seems to be working pretty well and GABA to help with the side effects for weaning off Klonopin. Good Luck. I hope you can beat it and get better.

Hi. I've been battling with anxiety for the last 3 months. I use Prozen, Nervuton 2, Omega 3 fish oil and lots of green tea. It makes me more relaxed but does not last for a long time. I get anxiety symptoms throughout the day, but it does help. At least it is all natural and has no side effects.
