    Went on a 2 hour walk earlier. The supper from my MFP friends made it so enjoyable!

    I'm always looking for new friends!

    Sending you a request. I am 27 years old and have suffered with anxiety since college. I am currently taking 15 mg of Celexa once a day and have been doing well. I quit smoking and that helped IMMENSELY with my anxiety. Exercise also helps me.

    Good luck!!

    I'm excited for the support I currently already have but I been going through a crazy time lately and the more support there is, the better.

    I do want to add, I don't take any prescriptions for my anxiety. Other than my lack of insurance, I do believe medications are a "crutch" when your body is naturally formed to heal wounds (including mental disabilities). My girlfriend practically has to shove a pill down my throat if I'm in pain or something. Lol.

    So, anymore beautiful people out there who are understanding, honest and supportive want to become MFP besties, send a friend request or just say hello. :]

    Sending friend request now! I'm an avid walker, just starting out with running. I try to keep things as upbeat and positive as I can, because I've had mild anxiety all my life.

    I use to have terrible anxiety attacks, but found hot and cold showers helped me get over it. I did 3 minutes as hot as I could handle and then 30 seconds as cold as I could take. I would sometimes do several rounds of it and it was amazing how much it helped. I learned about it from Dr. Neil Nedley.
