    Lots of great information here. Negative self talk is hard to overcome, but worth the effort.

    I find that breathing exercises can be excellent for controlling panic attacks. It can be difficult to cope with the realities of chronic anxiety and depression. Nevertheless, I think that this lens is a fabulous resource for anyone who suffers from anxiety or depression. I especially like the resources of contacts and agencies that can provide support and assistance to those in need of help. Great resource.

    Wow. Amazing lens here. I met you on Link Referral. Best wishes for your success! Hope you'll visit my EbyWay book lens. Peace and Light: Gary Eby, author and therapist.

    Isolating is so comfortable and easy, it can be hard to fight off at times. When I find i get drained by other people this is what i do. You are wonderful for putting this all together, very much appreciated.

    All I can say is that this is arguably one of the best lenses that I have ever had the privelege of reading. Execellent resource for Anxiety and Panic Attacks and of course the additional aspects that accompany these conditions.

    I can relate to whatever you cared to convey cos myself had been suffering from
    depression and anxiety and must admit it sucks.. to everyone, please appreciate this
    quality peace of resource. don't want to steal people coming to lense, mate but
    feeling like helping others who are still suffering and goin through all this shit so
    i'll only drop my mail id so that people in need of quick help can contact me any
    time...hope you dont mind. even my doc had told me that i couldn't get back to normal
    when a friend of mine told me about something that is responsible for the (happy)
    life i am leading but everyone, please make sure you indicate "depression" as
    subject when mailing me so that i can notice it as a personal mail.

    This is possibly the most comprehensive guide to anxiety and depression I've ever seen. Kudos to you!
  • Janet Nov 7, 2009 @ 12:28 pm | delete
    I think the mention of being left unmanaged is key to dealing with many issues within our life. By seeking anxiety help and assistance, instead of ignoring these issues, we can truly regain control. Great Hub, thank you.
  • grannysage Oct 30, 2009 @ 12:26 am | delete
    What a wonderful resource. I love the graphics. As a former social worker, I like how you keep directing people to seek help. I take antidepressants and always tried to give the message that there is no shame in taking medication. We need help regulating brain chemicals just like someone with diabetes needs to take insulin.

    Very nice lens. 5*

    BuSpar 15 mg has been very effective for me in treating occasional panic attacks and generalized anxiety, without side effects I've experienced with other medications such as Paxil. Doctors have been inclined to prescribe other medications as my anxiety symptoms often occur with emotional situations (death of loved one etc.) and I am crying alot. However the emotion is a natural reaction to the situation. Anti-depressant meds affected me negatively in contrast to buspar which helps alot.

    Hi Ashley, If I wasn't a color expert I might have been a psychotherapist. I enjoyed your blog and give it a 5***** plus added to my lensroll.

    Do you have a favorite color? Let me know since I'll send you a little link love from my "We love purple (or insert color of your choice-blue, green, yellow, orange, red, brown, pink, white, gray or black).

    Best,
