Has anyone found medication free things that really help with anxiety. In particular, I'm having a bad time with nighttime anxiety and panic. My heart will pound in my chest and keep me up half the night and I'm almost in tears.

For a short time my doctor had me on klonopin. It helped a bit, but he won't write for it anymore because I'm also on gabapentin. Not sure the gabapentin does anything, but I've been on it 10 years.

He put me clonidine. I'm having side effects. Pdoc tried to tell me there's no way I'm having side effects. I think he's an idiot. I am very sensitive to meds and always have issues.

Have been taking Ambien last couple months but I really want off of it. It does help. Can't be good to take that every day.

Weighted blankets, Calmigo, exercise, diet, breathing exercises, anything helping you guys?
