Hello!

So let me introduce myself. My name is Zel (short of my Croatian name which would be imposible to get you all pronounce here :)) and I've been struggling with Anxiety and Panic for 5 years which first appeared after a trip where I was all alone and unaccepted by the travel companions. Ever since tried everything from meds, psycho-therapy to natural ways like exercising, meditation, reading books about self-help (that is why I put Others since that worked the best for me).
To this day haven't found the way to completely solve the problem and I think I finally made up my mind not to run away from it since I can't, but to embrace it and deal with it day by day forgiving myself if panic attacks again (since I put the blame on myself when it happens, like I could prevent it).
Glad to be back since haven't been on iVillage board for years....

Hi, Zel! nice to have you here. Please make yourself @ home & join in our discussions. Many of us are learning new ways to cope with anxiety. It's so helpful to hear what others have to share. Good luck & GBU! (((hugs))) jan
