@meingan There is no doctor I have ever seen that says anti anxiety or depression drugs will heal your problems?? That's ridiculous. It is to relieve symptoms while you work with a therapist to heal yourself. I also hope that you are not suggesting your Chinese solution will do anything other than maybe relieve symptoms while people work with a therapist on their issues. That is the only way it works for what I think are obvious reasons.

@sallyo420 I didn’t say any doctor said that. It’s just a fact. Almost everyone thinks that anxiety can be dealt with by CBT which assumes that anxiety is only psychological. In my case, there is nothing in my life that causes me serious stress/ anxiety. I believe my anxiety is primarily a breakdown of key hormone systems relating to the HPA axis and I’m hoping that TCM, which focuses on healing damaged and weak body systems will help with my particular problem. Not assuming this is a solution for everyone.
So are you cured of your depression/anxiety and off meds with CBT?
