Anxiety

I suffer from high levels of anxiety too. I grind my teeth at night because of this, and so I wear a mouthguard everytime I go to sleep. It helps a lot. Before I started wearing a mouthguard, I used to get terrible tension headaches as a result of my bruxism (tooth grinding), which had devastating effects on my mental state.

Are you taking medication for your anxiety problem, Antony?

I'm sorry stratogustav but what you just said is absolute bullshit. People with anxiety cannot just wish away their suffering with a little bit of exercise and vegetables.

Blaming someone's anxiety on lack of exercise and vegetables is a sign of you knowing nothing about people with actual anxiety. One of my friends has anxiety, and she needs medication to keep it check. Sorry if I came out angry stratogustav, but this disorder is not caused by that.

I covered that. Someone that has been taking medication since a young age is on a whole different league.

Those are disorders, as you mentioned, that's already entering into the realm of bipolarity, schizophrenia, paranoia, etc..

My sister for example has been taking medication since she is 14. She is 23 now. She developed a disorder as a consequence, she frequents the hospital more often than you can imagine, and has been treated by multiple psychiatrists.

For someone like her, that has been taking different prescription drugs for so long, of course a healthy routine won't be enough.

However lately she has been socializing more and has been off medications for a few months now. She still had a couple incidents, but that's basically nothing in comparison to when she wasn't socializing, and not keeping herself active.

So even for people like that, those points mentioned are highly beneficial.

When people talk about anxiety, stress, and depression, those are symptons quite normal to experience for anyone, and those are completely eradicated by following all those things I mentioned, daily.

There are levels of depression that are even suicidal, and having friends around, activities to follow, healthy habits, goals, etc., have shown much better results than meds, that in my opinion are only a temporary fix that make it worse in the long run, and can even bring you to a state of no return where you become completely dependable of those meds.

Dan E. Kool that was freaking hilarious. I love every time you write those speeches, haha.

I covered that already. And no, no offense of course, no such thing as negative air between us. You gave me the chance to go into higher detail about my response, and I wouldn't have done it otherwise, which is only a good thing. That's just how I talk, at no point I was ever mad.

I also understand that to held a public office position is a lot of pressure, and with the opposition attacking you so heavily you yourself may be experiencing a little bit of this anxiety. Rest assured that an overturn of power is very unlikely as everyone has accepted the results of the election, no one is asking for a recount, and the system is transparent enough to project confidence in the suffrage.

Talks about forums and mentions a message board and a social media. Dan E. Kool is a nutshell.
