    Dealing with Anxiety

    Good Afternoon everyone. Just wondering how you guys deal with anxiety without medication. I'm dealing with several simultaneous stressful situations, and it's all I can do not to pick up some vodka "just to take the edge off" like I would have done in the past.

    Alcohol definitely makes anxiety worse over time.
    You could try CBT. Hypnosis- didn't work for me but I went for drinking.

      If you want to know a few tricks that work PM me. It's natural, it's easy, and it works.

        My way

        I can definitely attribute my drinking to anxiety... It's there when I don't drink and I started drinking in the first place to deal with it. Drinking makes it MUCH worse now;not so for many years previous though.

        Anyway, Baclofen really helps me. I'm like a poster child for Dr. A.

        Also, have to keep from getting overwhelmed. I need huge time outs or I'm so far gone I will have to have a drink.

        A month and a half AF much less anxious. Wish I didn't need a drug of any sort... But I do and Bac is better than alcohol.

        Hope this helps someone. :sun:

          Hi lostlady,
          What dose was your switch at? Just curious.
          Mine was 230 although I had gone to 260 but that was a mess.
          At 220 now.
