Really Need Help

Hi taylo4592, 

Welcome to the PC community.  I'm sorry to hear you've been dealing with anxiety that seems to have worsened since taking meds.  You listed a number of therapies that are beneficial in helping calm the mind and feeling better physically, mentally and emotionally.  Yoga is wonderful as it teaches you effective breathing techniques that you can use anytime.  Look through the program on this site to help you get started and support you with tools to take control of negative, irrational thoughts and turn them into positive ones.  
Here for you,
Vincenza, Health Educator

 I am a wife and mother of three and I have been dealing with anxiety for about 9 months now and it all started with me going to the doctor and she said I was depressed so she gave me vybrid which started me to having panic attacks and also I started having crying spells. My husband was supposed to go to work and I started crying and wouldn't stop  he had to stay home and so she took me off of them without weaning and it left me with anxiety I haven't really had panic attacks since I have been off the meds but I have almost had some but I just keep thinking "ur ok ur " and I try to avoid anything that makes me feel like I will have one. But now I am having trouble sleeping and just being anxious for no reason my husband just went back offshore and I am trying to cope with being home alone during the day I also have until August before I have to take my RMA exam or I lose my money and I can't make myself sit down and study for it I am wanting to try some things that I think will help me like yoga, therapy, meditation, acupuncture, exercise, etc
