Does anyone have these feelings. I seem to have fear of doctors, hospitals, flying and just general worry about things. Like death and dying. Not that I am thinking about killing myself but just the fear of the unknown...:(

WOW...I guess you been there done that. I wish you the best. Thank you for all that info. I find that alcohol makes anxiety WORSE after it wears off. I used to drink alot of wine and it killed the anxiety but when it wore off watch out and then it would hit and I would drink more to kill it. I am now affaid to drink. GREAT.....What is that 5htp you talk about is that the same as the SJW???

HEY !!!!!
Are you a long lost relative I didn't know I had ?
Yes is the answere . But I have come to believe that we are normal and evey body else is weird and like pain and taking huge chances like flying and going out on boats and even going up in those towers like liberty and Sears . The realy weird ones like to get together in large groups in places that are remote to medical help . Who knows what could happen to somebody at those places .
Sound like us ?
OK so Im being silly . I have learned to take it litely when I can because I know these things bother me and shouldn't . The good news is there are things that can be done about it. That is if you want to join those careless chance takers (playing again).
I take Amorym an SJW product . I have been on prescription meds that worked realy well but I didn't like the side affects . I have a freind that is on zolloft(spl) and loves it with no problems . Read this site all over . Im sure you will find more people like us and thats a big help in its self . Knowing that you are not a special case and seeing how others deal with things gives you a starting point to knowing how to deal and over come this pain in the hinny thing .
We should have a get together of people like us . But then that would mean travel to places not known and staying in a motel room that we would probably have to get in an elevator to get to . Then we would be stuck up there if there was a fire or something not to mention all those people that we dont know at the get together. What if there was someone there that I made mad at me back in school or some where . Would there be a Hospital close if I had a heart attack or something ????????????? };-)
Hange in there and study . Knowing is a good thing . It gives you a direction to the end of the problem or at least a way to deal with it. If it scares you and other people are doing it (safely). If you think you would like to . Go do it or at least try .
Believe this or not I am a Scuba Diver but it scares the crap out of me to be out on a boat in the Gulf of Mexico . Until I get out there . Then Im commited I cant go back . Then its not a problem . Then theres these big fish with teeth and Im going to go swiming with them . Thats right in the water 11 miles from Florida and God knows how far from Mexico . But I do it . On with the gear and off the back of the boat 80 or so feet deep and there it is the dive site and all fish and a place that is just to cool for people to be . Im there taking pics and smiling so big I can tast the salty water coming in around my regulator . O those big fish with all the teeth well who cares . Im having fun . Fun that I would not be having or able to tell you about if I would have listend to myself and not got up and drove to the Marina got on that boat and just went .
Dont keep yourslelf closed up get out face what you have a problem with . The more you do this the easyer it gets to go and do like you did in the past . But on the same hand the more you keep yourself closed up because you fear things that you know is not a mormal thing to fear the more things you will add to your list of fears . At least thats the way it (WAS) for me .
Hope this helps . O find a freind that you trust or make one it helps to have that trusted someone around . My new friend tought me how to Scuba Dive .
I know I cant spell but I tried };-)

KWC,
THANK YOU! You actually made me cry but it was a good cry. You brought a smile to my face. So do you know anything about SJW and high blood pressure? I am medicated for that but have read that it can cause it. Going to check into Amorym, never heard of it but anything is worth looking into. I just want the fears to go away. It sucks, as you know. But you know what I am so HAPPY for you that you have overcome some. Hang in there. Thanks for the responce.

This is your lucky day . I am on blood pressure medicine and have been for 3 years my blood pressure has is fine while taking Amoryn . I take 5 mg norvasc . If that helps . Keep asking questions find answeres . Dont stop with one thing if it dont help and give every thing you try a chance to work . Most drugs or Herbal remedies take time to go to work . Amoryn says to take it for 8 weeks before expecting results . Prescription drugs are about the same way . STUDY STUDY STUDY learn and know whats going on and what to do . Dont just read web sites that have SJW for sale or rely on a doctors advice as the truth . MY Doctor tried to treat me for ByPoler ( spl) I am far from that . Im just a scaredy cat };-) If you need that address back just reply and ask me I will post it again

Thank You KWC and all of you for the replys,
I just might try and find you to chat. I read your first e-mail wrong as I thought you where taking SJW with Amoryn and of course when I went to look for Amoryn on the internet I was spelling it wrong, Amorym, so of course now I re-read your reply and have found a website on it and am going to check into it. I do take Norvasc also 10mg and 4mg of Mavik. I have so much to say. Thank you all for your replys. It helps. I actually had a attack in Costco today. I made it but I didn't like it. It seems as you have the attacks in places you have had them before. I have read you shouldn't think about it and it is all in your head. I even bought an online thing that said it would cure it and that you shouldn't talk about it that it is all in your head. HELLO it was real as you all know. I just want to find something before I have to go back to work on Tuesday, don't we all want something, as I don't want to start having them there again. I know it all sucks. Does any of you get support from your spouse??? Thanks again SO MUCH

Wow, it just helps so much to see others with the same deal going on. While I feel terrible for you to suffer a little part of me is dancing for joy that I am not the only one!!!!
I certainly understand the whole goofy fears thing. When it was really bad some days I was scared to get out of bed.
I am also here to tell you that this can be overcome. I fly now, and go where I want to and do what I feel like doing. This coming from someone who had trouble going to the grocery store!!
The SJW has helped me immensely. I also make sure to take a good oil, like flax seed or evening primrose. Now here is the weird part. About a month ago I decided to do an experiment with food. I figured that our gut and our heads are very linked up. So I have eliminated sugar, white flour, (well, white anything rice, bread etc) caffiene. Basically I am eating meat, veggies and some organic brown rice and lentils and stuff like that. Believe it or not it is working. I feel better than I have in years, the depressive fog is lifting and the anxiety is more of a memory than an actuality.
Now if I could only quit smoking....

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only person who has a fear of death. I think it's been in the back of my mind all my life, but when I got really depressed it magnified 100 times. It was awful - all I could think about was the fact that I was going to die at some point, and that I maybe only had another, 30/40/50 years to live!!!!! I'd walk round wandering how everyone one else could be happy, when ultimately they were all going to die!!!! I know this sounds really crazy, but it became very real to me, and I really became aware of my own mortality.
Now though, having taken SJW for 3 months, all those thoughts have gone away, and I feel almost normal again. SJW has made life so much more bearable for me, and I'm feeling so much more positive than I have for a long time.
You are not alone, so hang in there!!!
