Hi paula. I wish I knew. I am not on any meds but desperate for something to calm me down. I've got Kalms and cammomile tea to try. I feel wretched today and cant stop crying x

Humly, I have had many days feeling wretched and in tears. Hold on in there, keep in touch with the people here. Can you go to your GP? Meds may be of help to get you through this situation.

Can you try St. John's Wort. I was taking that for a while until I was prescribed Citalopram, but had to stop as it interferes with the Citalopram.

Stay away from sugar. The effect it has on my anxiety levels is as clear as night and day. That includes desserts, ice cream etc

And it goes without saying, no alcohol.

Meditation is a magic bullet for me. I couldn't believe how powerful it was when I tried it.

It takes a little practice, but it's well worth it.
