Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 Angie: are you on anti-depressants? Many people with this disease are, from everything I read about it. Might want to check with your doctor if you're not. Or, you can also ask about anti-anxiety meds. They can be taken on an as-needed basis; but anti-depressants must be taken every day. You could also try meditation (deep breathing in a quiet, preferably dark place for 5 to 10 minutes will help calm you.)

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 When I first started having symptoms years ago I did take anti- depressants but I haven't in several years. I hate to add another med again when this only happens about one time a month. I might ask about the anti-anxiety meds if they can be taken as needed but I'd rather try other things first. I don't have much knowledge about aromatherapy, teas or that sort of thing. You mentioned the meditation, I do remember all those relaxation exercises for childbirth. It would be worth a try. Thanks for the tip. Angie \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
