This was interesting to me and wanted to share. If you have anxiety this helps you understand that it is not the environment or the situation, but your reaction to the environment or the situation that causes anxiety. Sometimes the anxiety is proper and sometimes it is misplaced. It helps to understand why you might be feeling anxious. If I could start over, I would study the brain. Fascinating stuff.

If the brain doesn't work nothing else matters. We give our brains so little credit for all it does.
I suffer from anxiety and small panic attacks from that anxiety.
I spent 6 months of last year working with a therapist who specialized in EMDR, Best money I have ever spent.
You get a good one and they can change your life.

I was a perfectionist and because everything in my life was not perfect I stewed inside until my brain could not take it any longer and it gave me a REAL F'ing reason to worry. Between TRT, and the EMDR work I am in remission. I don't believe you are ever cured when you get this. It is a life long battle.

Hi. There are home remedies like the use of lemongrass essential oil. The herb helps relax and soothe the body.

Hi coopman welcome to the forum. How do you use the lemongrass essential oil, add it to a bath, rub it on your skin, drink it?

 

[coopman]

I just place three or four drops of the oil into a diffuser and let the aroma spread.

As someone who gets “wrapped around the axle” about things that I probably shouldn’t, this is something I’ll definatlely read. Thanks
