Anxiety can cause many other related conditions and phobias, such as panic disorder, agoraphobia, obsessive compulsive disorder and other specific phobias. Don't let it take over your life. Take the necessary steps to ensure a healthy state of mind. Telling yourself to be strong and not be fearful is easier said than done. Coping with this sometimes debilitating condition is a learned behavior.
Relaxation techniques can be helpful such as meditation and yoga or massage therapy.
Herbal remedies are available to ease symptoms. Nerval tonic tea and other herbs such as Valerian root, St. John s Wort, Kava Kava. I ve heard St. John s Wort to be the most helpful. There are many helpful books on the market, a great one I read is called 'Feeling Good Handbook' by David Burns. This book focuses on depression and anxiety.
