I've tried it! It did nothing for me, I paid something like 180 bucks for 1 hour and didn't get anything out of it.
Wow, I'm getting the impression that nothing really helps! Everyone always says there is help, go get help, you don't have to suffer with this, blah, blah, blah, but really what is there that helps? Therapy only does so much, exercise only does so much if anything, eating right doesn't really do much, most people don't think antidepressants help. So basically, we have to struggle through and be miserable. I just had a doctor's appointment to follow up. My previous visit I told him I was not sleeping well at all, and he told me to up my Klonopin and take either one or even two for sleep. This visit he told me I shouldn't be using it for sleep! Really? So now I've cut back to 1/2 a tablet at night and will try to go to a quarter soon, like that will do anything. Now I'm awake at 3 every night and miserable. I keep looking for different things that people might be doing to manage their anxiety but it doesn't seem like there is much available. Kind of discouraging.

The way I kind of view this is that we, ourselves, do most of the hard work. You might try a few different things. Even when trying them, the really hard work is been done by us. If a person stays in the house, for example, they might seek out therapy. But therapy is useless unless they are willing to make an effort to get themselves back outside the house again. they are doing the hardest part of the work. Always say that therapy is about 1/5th of the answer. But what therapy is up to each person. Have to try a few before you find the one that works for you. But you also have to be willing to put the hard work in too. Some people think therapy is a cure. Far from it. More like it gives you a form of direction. What you should be doing. Then you have to do what you are been asked to do. Doing is the hardest part. You are alone when you are out there. if you see results it is worth all the hard work.
