Thank you, Perna and Bill. Those resources are very useful. I have been told to meditate but I cannot. I am not sure if I have ADD.

I was about to say that I have tried to meditate, but cannot....however, I realized that I am putting road blocks up in front of myself. Making excuses not to try again. It is not easy to be optimistic when it feels like you are of no worth.

The Changeways Relaxation Program Kit, Revised Edition
http://www.changeways.com/store/ourp...nproducts.html Some audio tracks that a person could listen to. Awkward at first but it's nice once you get used to it. Helped me with anxiety, stress and stuff.. |

What's better than a smiling alpaca? It's more of a panic attack crisis tool than an anxiety resource. Looking at silly/cute pictures of animals helped me to take the focus off my breathing when I was hyperventilating. I have a really hard time controlling my breathing on my own because my brain gets in the way. By distracting it, my breathing calmed and returned to normal on it's own. The site I use is call buzzfeed and I can access it from my phone but I'm sure there are a multitude available.

for the past two years my family Dr. prescribed my medication. I found out fast they don't do that here.
several years ago I had a great therapist and for insurance reasons she couldn't see me any longer I guess because i had a diagnoses and felt like my life would never get any better,i stopped trying to get better and could tolerate life on antidepressants and anti anxiety medication. |

Not an anxiety resource per se but I like spiritual teacher Eckhart Tolle's website. It has lots of free stuff, including videos that teach mindfulness and meditation. When I am anxious I am either in the past, experiencing shame, guilt, anger, etc. over something that has already happened, or the future having fear from predicting negative outcomes. Staying in the NOW is the key to my spiritual and emotional health but frequently I need help getting/staying there. The present is Eckhart's main message.

Habituation is a decrease in response to a stimulus after repeated presentations.
