good morning, get some nice sleep , and good luck on the new job

I recently started taking an herbal pill that helps to relax you. Taking 1 helps get me to bed and close my eyes, 2, a decent nights rest...3, it's the best sleep I've had. I don't use it everyday but when I'm at loss for sleep I'd take em. Truly made a difference. Hope your first day at work goes great.

You 2 make a cute couple

we always have sg and fb. ill be back to nys one day I am sure. I prob should have come out on thanksgiving.

hugs always! eventually!

This sounds like all good news.

The biorb things are really cool. I was thinking of getting one for my desk.

i dont have anxiety attacks.. my thing is explote with anyone if im angry!

Maybe you can do things that relaxes you.

My panic attacks have become MUCH less frequent and MUCH milder since I started working out and put on a bit of muscle weight. Now that I'm not super-skinny but more or less fit, they've almost gone away entirely. Which is not to say that I don't still have stress, but it's not the full-blown panic attacks I used to experience.

For stress, the big thing that seems to cut the edge is eating, especially medium-slow burning carbs. Starches like potatoes, whole wheat bread, whatever. I know you've said your stomach is in knots, but in my experience, I just have to force through that and then everything gets better half an hour to an hour later. If it's really difficult, something sugary can give me a moment of calm to un-knot the stomach while being easier to get down. (i.e. sip a soda) But that needs to be followed with some real slow-burning calories after to make it stick, because sugar calories burn off too fast, especially when you're freaking out.

My theory is that many of my panic attacks were triggered by adrenaline release from hunger. This is natural: When you get hungry, your body wants you amped up to find food. Also, adrenaline mediates the body's self-digestion when there's not enough food to supply the energy you need to keep going. So for a couple reasons, hunger triggers adrenaline.

In the long term for preventing panic attacks, weight lifting has been great for me. Having a bit of muscle has done wonders for stabilizing my body chemistry and I can't recommend it highly enough.

It sucks right now but you can do it!

wish I did! good luck gorgeous!
