anxiety and panic attacks are as bad as an addiction, they really get in the way. My anxiety sky rocketed after quitting alcohol, and it took me years to master it! Now I AM FREE!!!!

There are countless books on dealing with anxiety, and I have read a few of them.

Ultimately, in the end, its up to you to destroy all fears before you and break down every wall around you.

with bloody fists on we plow.

Xanax actually does work but theres always the traditional gallon of hard liquor and carton of cigarettes, which are great networking tools if used properly :)

It does when you thought you were the big man on campus.

Look at it this way: people have been friendly to you - some may call it ass kissing - when you were well off. All those former friendly people who might laugh at you today have never really been your friends. Simply don´t care.

Those that support you now without looking for advantage, those you may consider real friends. You can be proud that there are some people left who support you today. Don´t be afraid of the others.:2 cents:

yeah I used to also have a lot of anxiety too, you guys are not alone anxiety and depression are the two most common mental disorders...and the easiest to treat. I try not to think to far ahead these days...that gives you anxiety. Think about now and keep busy, many people just have a lot of time on their hands to think about all their problems, and watching the news on TV will also screw you up...and makes you worry about something...that really has no bearing on you. Anxiety = a fear of a fear

It's already been shown that you have actual friends in the industry, Sleazy. Just think about the good from seeing them.

wha the fuck is this?

This might help.....

yes, an alcohol and any substance make it all worse! Alcohol makes anxiety so much more intense. I suffered that for a decade. I drank to calm anxiety and it only got worse...

anyhow, the only way out is to run theough the flames.

Forward!

its the rubber room

i am ocd (that won't ever go away), and used to have a huge amount of anxiety, culminating in several panic attacks in 2002/03. i started getting my ass in to shape, and that made all the difference. i haven't had a panic attack in 6 years.
