How exactly do anxiety mediactions work?

admin — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 14:39:03 +0000

I was just prescribed an anti anxiety medication today for my social anxiety. Could anyone explain how it works exactly? Like how it affects my brain and my thinking and everything?

They alter the neurotransmitters in your brain, creating a calming effect. There are a few mechanisms of action depending on the drug. I would google the drug name and go to an official website or read the package insert if you have it.

I am not numbed or dramatically transformed by my anti-anxiety medication- I am the real "me" with them and am an overworked, tortured soul without them. They help me live my life, be productive, and get the rest and happiness I need.

What is the Best Treatment for Stress Injuries to the bones? Not Stress Fracture.?

admin — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 22:01:30 +0000

I mean Repetitive Stress Injuries

I got it in my shin bone from Running. I have Consult 2 Doctor and were told to just rest. Rested for months, Still the same.The Dr say they can do nothing about it. I’m so sad, it’s like theres 0% of Recovery.

I’m consulting another sport Doc soon my my condition.

My Question, is there any aother good types of treatment for Bone Stress Injuries.

Is Anti-immaflatory like suitable for bone stress?

I’ve had stress injuries and stress fractures. I honestly feel like stress injuries are worse. Mine was in my foot so they immobilized it for awhile and now are only allowing me to wear tennis shoes, rest it, and non-impact exercise only.

I could be wrong but I don’t think anti-inflammatories will do anything for bones.

I’m assuming you have had an MRI if not maybe you should inquire about one.

How do i reduce anxiety about going for a driving test?

admin — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 08:25:06 +0000

I have a driving test in 3 weeks time, the only problem is I am suffering bad anxiety at the moment, do you think I would be better putting my test of until i get help for my anxiety or is there a way i can manage my anxiety on the test day so that i don’t get too nervous, is there any techniques i could use to reduce the anxiety on test day?

I had the same thing when I went for my test on the 7th.

I went the first time on March 26th, I was a little nervous, went through the test fine until I failed because some moron didn’t give me the right of way. On April 7th I went again and I was SOO nervous. I bawled my eyes out an hour before, it was raining, there was an accident at one end of the town and road construction on the other. But I did just fine and I passed. The instructors KNOW your nervous.

When I was in the car with the instructor I kept telling myself that he was just some guy who was giving directions to his house and I had to drop him off. When that didnt work I told myself, Hey no one knows me in this place anyway so whatever.

Back to your question.

Deep Breathing, and just put your mind somewhere else. The more you think about it the more nervous you will get. And I don’t recommend putting it off, you’ll always be nervous about it and you’ll never be ready for it until test day.

Just think, years from now, you’ll be telling your kids how you did on the test.

Why does anxiety spiking cause you to feel worse about yourself?

admin — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 12:31:56 +0000

In other words, anxiety intensifies the negative feelings. My anxiety started to spike because of work-related stress. I have been experiencing anxiety issues as long as I can remember.

In my opinion anxiety is very unattractive, internally and externally. Anxiety intensifies my negative feelings as well. At least I know the worst will pass when the spike eases off. Hang in there!

Does the experation date on stress zyme fish treatment really matter?

admin — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 20:58:50 +0000

I have a bottle of stress zyme that says it expired in March of 2004, from what I can tell. Does this stuff actually "expire"?

I would think that the expiration date on the bottle is the last date that the manufacturer will guarantee that the "live bacteria" in the bottle will be alive and ready to help cycle your tank.

After all, the bacteria can only last so long without eating something, eh? Closed up in a bottle with nothing to sustain them, I am sure they will eventually all die.

Why does "everyone" say playing an instrument is an awesome stress relief?

admin — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 20:58:46 +0000

I get stressed whenever I practice or play… and -especially- when someone is watching or I have to perform for someone. If anything, picking up an instrument has made me for anxiety stricken over these past years.
I associate the feeling of practicing/playing in front of people with public speaking. Yuck!

It just depends on the person. If you’re a person who just loves music more than anything in the world, you’ll find it a great escape to play and "get away from the world." If you really love music you’ll just love the chance to get to practice and perform your talent for others. Performing for others is just something not everyone is good at though, and normal to be nervous.

What do you recommend as a stress relief herb?

admin — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 23:48:35 +0000

I ve used Brozac before but I cant bear the side effects. Would u suggest another solution please.

V A L E R I A N * R O O T

Yes indeed as the previous Answerer says, "It is a Healing Herb!"

Years ago I was prescribed Valium…
i took the Valium for quite some time…
then i happened across an Apothocary who told me, actually gave me an herbal prescription for an herbal substitute for Valium:

1/2 ounce Valerian Root
1/2 pint of Ginger Brandy

Shake well each time you use it

take one teaspoon as needed

IT ABSOLUTELY WORKS

I suppose you could go
to the health food store and get the Valerian Root in capsule form and take it as a capsule….
but, it will not have the same affect!

go ahead and get the capsules
break ‘em apart…
’til you get about a 1/2 oz of the herb
mix with 1/2 pint of ginger brandy

this will not give you the "kick" of a valium
but…it will definitely help with your stress

one thing to know:
before you start messing around with Valerian Root Powder: IT STINKS!
It smells worse than week old gym socks

Give it a try

IT ABSOLUTELY WORKS!

(if you are having trouble sleeping, try: SCULLCAP TEA before your retire)

Well it’s new computer time again, and I need a stress relief- SO- best and most fun ways to destroy a HD?

admin — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 20:42:46 +0000

I want it to be COMPLETELY unreadable (I’m a paranoid S.O.B.) and so I was wondering if anyone got any creative ideas to destroy a hard drive. I could really use some stress relief, so anything involving a battle cry would be great.

I’ve heard baseball bats and hammers aren’t 100% effective though.

Thanks! Personal stories would also make my day =)

What is the physical pathway of anxiety?

admin — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 02:29:16 +0000

I have had chronic anxiety for at least 14 years, if not longer. Any time of day, regardless of what I am doing, I feel that anxious burn in my Solar Plexus. I would like to know if anxiety is more of an imbalance of neurotransmitters or hormones, and how does it manifest physically to cause the burning in your stomach? Any other bits of knowledge will be greatly appreciated.

Anxiety can make it seem like anything is happening. I, myself, had a lot of anxiety issues out of getting sick from no where and I have never liked doctors and medical stuff. You can convince yourself that anything is happening when you are going through anxiety. I was convinced I was dying, but look, I’m alive and well, and over my anxiety too. If you are looking into taking medicine for your anxiety which really helped me I would recommend what I used to get over anxiety in around 4 months with this: Propranolol. Hope this helped.
