All great advice! Thanks everyone. 

I don't have a problem with benzos, they have medicinal value and I've even been prescribed them in college. Never really used them except for a few bad anxiety episodes in school. Mostly just sold them for extra cash.  I understand how they can help people, but I personally don't like the side effects and don't feel that my anxiety is nearly bad enough to take them.  Never felt any addiction towards them either. 

I understand what my main anxiety triggers are and mostly have them under control using techniques such as mindfulness, as mentioned by Pirate.  What I was mainly inquiring about is supps and techniques to deal with mild anxiety that has no apparent cause.  Occasionally I feel sort of hypertensive for no apparent reason so I was just curious to see what others have experimented and found success with.  Honestly I'm sure I just need to exercise more and eat better lol.

Always interested in how people manage stress. If it was a perfect world I'd be a zen monk with zero worries hahaha.  I think part of the reason I'm so intolerant of anxiety is because before college I had literally never experienced it, seriously. So that time in my life where I remember being stress free isn't that long ago.

Tell me, what's your favorite Star Wars movie?

..and on a scale of 1-10 (10 being the best of course) how gay is Luke in episodes 4 & 5? He toughened up some in ROTJ.

Painfully entertaining to watch he is.

Trying really hard not too.

Before zippoz passed I was prescribed:

400 mg butalbitol
30 mg flexiril
10 mg ambien
4 mg klonopin

A day.

After he passed away I immediately decided to stop. I started with the ambien first.  Been off that since may.  Then I moved to the butalbitol. Been off that since the end of june.

Now I just take the klonopin and flexiril.

Flexiril is next.

I won't stop taking the klonopins until I can smoke herb again.  I would rather be dependent on something than go what I go through when I have a break down, and everyone who interacts with me socially agrees that I am a lot more "bearable" when medicated.  However, my sex life has been hideous since I got on these meds.  When I am just smoking weed and doing my normal lifestyle, I am overall very very happy and have a great social life.

The most? A woman's love

With music I feel that I can go further into the moment, but its a close second in anxiety relief.

Same, my social anxiety completly vanished after I stopped weed.

Also paychedelic and anxiety is pretty horrible combo, its like you have a 50% chance it's gonna be worst for ever or you'll be good for a couple of weeks.

that shit is dumb, don't listen to people in TPE,

That's because they're using the wrong substances, imo. I know RCs have a bit of a rap with some people but I honestly believe that as a tool of therapy they need to be addressed and properly recommended based on people's circumstances.

I found that exercise helps my anxiety for about 1-3 hours after a moderate/hard effort, but after that I am back to being socially inept.

Taking care of yourself can help ease some of your anxiety, because you will feel better about yourself in the long run.  You don't have to be a model on the cover of a magazine, just do something everyday to work some muscle group, and I promise you will feel much better about yourself.

Do new things too, read new books, explore new ideas, keep fresh thoughts in your mind, which will help keep the negative thought at ease for a bit because you will be engrossed in learning something new.

A good friend offered me some advice that has been working.  Just breathe and be aware of your breathing, deep breaths, count the time between breaths and give yourself at least a full second between them.  To me, anxiety can happen for various reasons, some I don't understand, but I catch myself expecting to have it and therefore starting the process myself.  Being a cynical person in general gives me more anxiety, expecting the worst, etc.  I used to accept that about myself, and I don't know if it's even possible to "cure" that, but it's worth trying.  Also, for me, letting things slide that would otherwise normally elicit even just a negative thought response from me or whatever.  That kind of shit is essential or you'll be a wad of nerves.

Benzos and drugs work nicely to help soothe the effects but they don't address the actual root of the problem and I am kind of hoping for some long term healing with this process.

Less drugs. More sleep. Breathing.

I've tried many things and those are all that really work for me.

For me it really depends on what causes my anxiety.

If it's just general awfulness and whatnot: breathwork and meditation. With a didgeridoo I can do both while making music.

Work stress: cannabis. Not a lot of it, just enough to let all the stress flow out of your body while you do something unproductive like watching cartoons or painting space Ork miniatures.

Smoking heavily gives me really bad anxiety unless I'm drunk. Otherwise I can only take 1 or 2 puffs.

Weed helps my anxiety the most.

The difference between:



to THIS



is literally 1 draft off a joint and 10 minutes away.


Cannabis gives me an instant angina pectoris attack and thois triggers an all out panic attack caused by the traumatic experience of habing had an early age heart attack at 30.

So cannabis "helps" my anxiety most. It causes it more than anything will.
