Morning anxiety

Posted by barb6060 @barb6060, 4 days ago

Waking up with morning anxiety that is overwhelming. It a very uneasy feeling. I'm going to a therapist and not taking any medications at this time. I have tried anti anxiety medications in the past and they didn't help much. Cardiologist has me taking propranolol for the physical symptoms of anxiety but it does not work for the mind with anxiety thoughts. I'm 72. Loss of husband in 2022 and this started before that.

I'm sorry to hear of your morning anxiety. I can relate.. I used to get awful symptoms in the mornings. Medication has helped, and also exercising every day and getting sunshine. I have also found a website gad-specialists.com very useful.. to teach you how to deal with anxious thoughts.

Thank you. Yes I agree on the exercising and getting more sunshine. I will do that. Weather is perfect here now so no excuses for me. Thank you for sending the website. Best of luck to you.
