From a radio cast by Dominick J. Riccio, Ph.D and Laurence Simon, Ph.D:

"Anxiety is the smoke detector of the mind"... (and you have to find out what it is telling you).

Here is a link; do not follow it if you are anxious about "alternative" approaches to anxiety and other mental health issues:

Neat group, interesting show titles. I listened to some of the one on toxic relationships and will go back and listen again sometime when I have more time.

Here is another link from the same source; it deals a lot with the meaning of anxiety:

I do not expect many people here to want to hear this sort of thing.

Interesting perspective - I do know that a lot of my social anxiety is a result of fear of rejection and cognitive behavioural therapy has helped a bit, but I still believe that there is also a biological component that's helped by the meds I take.

Thank you for the links. I appreciate the alternative information. I'm psych med resistant.
