I started going to acupuncture about 2 months ago for mainly my fibromyalgia, surprisingly, its helped my anxiety a lot more! I used to be anxious about everything to the point of shaking and being sick.. also, it tied in with insomnia. Since I've been seeing my acupuncturist, I've been able to go out more without my anxiety holding me back, I haven't had intense feelings of being overwhelmed, and I've been sleeping through the night, every night! I highly recommend acupuncture to anyone with server anxiety!

That's awesome. I want to try it but I am a little wary of needles.

I just had my 5th treatment with acupuncture to relieve stress and anxiety. It has been 2 steps forward and 1 step back. The acupuncturist said I had hormone stuff going on (going through menapause too)....she said I had too much fire in my heart. So far the headaches and chest pains have ceased, but the weird feeling and dizziness are still present, but not all the time like before.
She also said she could not make me 20 years old again (LOL...damn) but could give me about 85 - 90 percent relief...and I'll take what I can get at this point. I had a really good week last week, but this week is a bit shaky.
I hate needles too....but I am desperate for relief of these awful symptoms caused by stress and anxiety.
I say try it....you have nothing to lose!!!!
