[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 437537, member: 4264"] Ugh. So I posted a update on page 2 of my thread I posted about my aunts heart attack. If you have had the chance to read there, it goes to the reason I'm having anxiety again rearing its ugly head. To be fair, i was having a increasing problem with it for a few days before my aunts heart attack, but the update in that post shows what cranked the anxiety higher today. Until this, the anxiety creeping in I attribute to the goings on with the police etc re: my father. I am doing the traditional and much needed things: taking care of myself, eating well, trying to get sunshine and exercise, relaxing as much as possible, keeping busy with things that make me happy and cause me to feel good, putting myself first, trying to not think about the issue of my fathers pending arrest at all if I can help it. So this may contradict the fact that I have increasingly bad anxiety going on, but in fact I've been doing a pretty good job of staying balanced and focused on the right stuff during this past 2 months of stuff with the police and the new revelations I've been getting about his past and other victims etc. I'm doing so well on a day to day basis at handing what is in my daily control and making each day a good one. I can't see anything to add to my days to improve that aspect of coping mechanism. Yet here the anxiety grows anyhow. And now with my aunts heart attack, and the fall out in my other threads update re: my brother, BiPolar (BP) mother, aunts ex husband etc the anxiety that was creeping in on me seems to have decided to ignore my attempts to stick to healthy days and patterns. It's not enough in and of itself. I obviously need to add something more. I've contemplated a walk in for anxiety medications. I dont have a doctor but I can use the walk ins and they will issue my anxiety script. Haven't had one in 2 years or so, but it's well documented the years I needed them. I just really wish I could find a way to conquer the anxiety without a script. Any suggestions of things that worked for you all or your family members etc? Natural supplements, vitamins, anything at all really that works I'd give a college try. [/QUOTE]
