Avatar f tn Distraction is a big weapon for withdrawal and for pain management. The more you focus on your pain, the higher your anxiety levels go. The worse your anxiety becomes, the more your body tenses up. The more tense you are, the worst your pain will be. It doesn't matter what you use for distraction - reading, watching a movie, praying, meditation, conscious relaxation - just try it. Like any other activity, distraction is a skill that improves with effort and practice. Hang in there!

Complementary and alternative medicine such as biofeedback therapy may also help. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn Call your doctor and let him know that you are still experiencing panic attacks, you may need an increase in the dosage or an anxiety medication to go with the Citolopram. Since you are still having panic attacks while on medication, I don't see getting off the medication working at this time. Therapy can be helpful in learning if there is a root cause for your anxiety, and if there is how to get it out and deal with it. Therapy can also teach you coping and relaxation techniques.
Avatar f tn For those of you who have had or are in talk therapy for your anxiety - what are your sessions like? I'm so confused now because I feel like mine is going no where now.

Avatar f tn With autistic children many of the common-sense parenting techniques of behavior management will not be as effective as they are with children who do not display such serious developmental disorders.
