If you have had an anxiety disorder for more than a few months then chances are that you have looked for a cure for your anxiety disorder. You may have went to Google or some other search engine and actually typed in the search box "cure for anxiety" or something like that. Or maybe you went to a library and did some searching there.

What Is Natural Anxiety Treatment?
I recently created a follow up note to my recent post regarding anti-anxiety drugs. This was prompted as a result of a concerned reader who felt that I was supporting unregulated "natural" remedies.

Urgent Anxiety
During the course of your anxiety episodes you may have noticed that a large percentage of anxiety symptoms have made you feel like you were going to die or like you were getting real sick. But anxiety disorders, as negative as they can make us feel, are not always doom and gloom. Sometimes we have symptoms that are just annoying, one such symptom is urgency.

As a result, many people that have anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, etc., turn to substance abuse to cope, and cigarettes is one of the most common drugs used for this purpose. Now, let me get something straight, I don't equate anxiety disorder with any of the personality disorders. These are very different conditions that are not connected to anxiety disorder per say. So to all my hypochondriacs
Just Say No To Anxiety Drugs
Today I wanted to talk about anti-anxiety drugs and whether or not we should be taking them. Let me just start by saying that although the title of today's post is "just say no" maybe a better way of understanding my viewpoint on this issue is "just say no - most of the time".
