I was actually totally housebound for five entire months because of anxiety and panic. When I was able to go to a doctor specializing in it, he taught me some pretty cool self hypnosis tricks and visualization/breathing that helps me a LOT.
My panic and anxiety aren't caused by specific fears or thoughts of things.
I know when you are in severe panic you need meds, too and believe me I take them - though sometimes I can get so panicked it would seem that even a horse tranquilizer couldn't calm me down!
Anyone try those sort of exercises? What do you recommend?
