Caffeine…my friend, my enemy. Today, and forever, there is no caffeine after noon. On my way to giving it up. It causes me heart palpations…which as you may have read, triggers anxiety reactions for me! Plus, I hate the up and down energy. I haven’t had any anxiety for several days, but I just had a little caused by heartburn. Even the heartburn was going down for a minute…must have been those radishes! I just took an herbal… ….later that day… I took another herbal chill out pill. I am much better now! Well during yesterdays anxiety flare-up, I went to Whole Foods to grab a herbal calm down remedy. I don’t have any more Xanax, and I really don’t want to take anymore. I have never gotten addicted to it, or felt any side effects, but still…It does modify brain chemistry, and I have had [...] Ugh.

I rarely [...] I think I am already starting to feel the effects of my recent changes in attitude, behavior, and eating. I think I will see a huge change when I give up caffeine…not so soon though. Only a few vices at a time so I don’t overload! I have been sleeping so deeply. I have been [...] I also read that stress relates to fertility…as in you are less fertile while stressed out. Makes sense for the human animal to NOT produce while under duress, right? (Our bodies are so amazing) Well, I don’t want to get preggers, but check out this other piece…Our bodies shut down reproduction by increasing cortisol, which [...] Today I did some research on information that I kind-of knew in my heart anyhow, but it was good to hear. I know that there is a link between anxiety and alcoholism. We all do. People with anxiety self medicate with alcohol. If you do it for long enough, alcohol withdrawal causes anxiety attacks too.
