Non benzo meds for anxiety

[Flippity]

Has anyone tried meditation for their anxiety? I use that and certain yoga positions in conjunction with my benzo when I am having a stressful day. (Often).

Hi Athena. That has also been suggested to me. I have used it, but it didn't last for very long - though I will say, it was definitely effective. Even just 3 minutes of relaxation time (music, scented oils or whatever) it worked. I should try doing that again :

On that matter (meditation), I remember learning Tai Chi and other relaxation techniques when I just coming into that horrible adolescent age. Which makes me also wonder if it's possible to re-train our minds when it comes to dealing with certain situations. It must be.
What I've written is probably stupid. I haven't read up on what I just wrote. These are just my own 0.2 cents worth.

Meditation vs Medication.


 Glad you brought that up
