Dealing with ANXIETY, Do I have hope?

Question

I have had anxiety since I was about 5 and had to start school, of course back then not knowing what it was. I would get a severe nervous feeling in my stomach and for some reason I always think throwing up would make it better, which it doesn't. But that doesn't stop me. I am now 23, and have been having an anxiety attack for about a week. I finally stopped throwing up, so far. But I still can't sleep, I went to the doc and he gave me lexapro and xanax. The xanax is ok but I just want to get over this. Is there hope???

What you really mean.... is "Do I have dope?"

That's the true cure to anxiety. :)

Answer 3

I used to feel the same way. Please take this into consideration. It worked for me, although I am not you.

I had overwhelming anxiety. It turned out to be my use of Splenda. Yup Splenda. How could something that taste so good, be so bad?



I like to say sucralose, not Splenda, because that is what Splenda is. And it is in a lot of stuff. Sadly, the package doesn't have to say Splenda or diet to have sucralose in it. You have to read labels. So, you might be using it and don't even know it!



Sucralose is poison. It ruined five years of my life. I had a laundry list of medical problems while taking it, including overwhelming anxiety, depression, mood swings, insomnia, gastrointestinal issues and more.

Go ahead, google: anxiety splenda or anxiety sucralose or insomnia splenda or insomnia sucralose



The slogan, "Made from sugar..." is very misleading. Splenda might be made from sugar, but it is far from sugar. The resulting chemical is an organochloride (chlorocarbon). Organochlorides are typically poisons.



carbon monoxide - made from oxygen so its like a breath of fresh air
