> Thanks J Backer, so how did you get rid of your anxiety? I feel that i wont abuse the benzos, as i never want to go back to that hell. I never was a pill popper, apart from ecstasy pre heroin, i used the heroin as medicine to relieve anxiety, depression. It was just too addictive. Since ive been in recovery, around 5 yrs, the anxiety, sp just doesnt shift, even doing counselling for long periods, hypnotherapy.
>well, i still have anxiety but it is considerably less then i used to have. I had to learn to deal with my feelings without grabbing a pill. also SSRI's do help anxiety a little bit, it takes a while to notice but its true. i also study Tao/Confusius and meditate daily. My spirtual study has givin me peace i could never achive before. which is really good because i hate the NA/AA step garbage, i have my own spiritual programme.
peace J
