Thanks, lonegael -- VERY much a YES in terms of unusual things.
Exceptionally unusual and
extremely stressful things. If I actually went into detail, you might pass out. (So will spare you!
) Seasonal? Not so much. "Wringer"? Good word for it.

Yes. At the last appointment, she said we should work on some stress management strategies (and in addition to med stuff, as you mention). I agreed. I edited in to this post about potentially stronger and/or longer lasting anxiety meds, so any feedback on that would be much appreciated as well.
(And thanks to sugahorse for responding to that question in an earlier thread.
)
(Just as a sidenote...techniques are good, and I will try some, but, it's going to take more than that for me. I'll need to use them in conjunction with meds. From reading in other folk's threads about non-med stuff, I know that some are able to have success with them alone, but I'm not one of them. I'm glad it works that way for others though. I've also tried natural remedies to absolutely no avail.)
