Hey... Victoria here.. a lil about me- about a year after my husband left me and my daughter died about 5 years ago.. I was at a very difficult point in my life, and was ultimately diagnosed with depression, severe anxiety, and panic disorder. I would say that i've always for the most part been a little depressed and had some degree of anxiety, but this just completely tipped the scale. I remember there were days on end I would just lie in bed, and whenever I would be in a social envirement my anxiety would go through the roof and I would often have panic attacks. Therapy never seemed to be effective for me, and my psych put me on damn near every med out there. I've been on everything from wellbutrin to paxil, zoloft, prozac, lexapro, celexa, buspar, valium, klonopin, xanax.. etc. Sometimes 2-3 different ones in combo at the same time. Nothing really seemed to work for me. With the exception of some of the benzos (klono./xanax) .. these worked well for a little while, but I grew tolerance quickly, and became highly addicted.

Then one day while researching online i came across this reputable looking website http://www.anxiety.pcti-system.com .. which talked about this program to eliminate your anxiety for good, all naturally. Long story short, I wound up signing up to try it and the program worked amazing.. Not only do I no longer have panic attacks and anxiety gone, but my depression has also seemed to dissipate a little. And I'm currently starting to slowly ween off the meds I'm on. For those who have also conquered their condition.. I wanted to get your opinion/perspective on something... Looking in hindsight, I would personally say that possibly the biggest driving factor in all this is OCD. I think obsessing and constantly having your thoughts focused on your own condition and constantly analyzing your own thoughts/ations plays a very significant role in the persistance of our ails. Almost like the condition is a small lit fire, and OCD is the fuel that keeps it consistantly burning... Also, I've come to the conclusion that meds are generally a unhealthy short term cure that only semi-treats the symptoms, and never the cause. Your thoughts ???

This sounds like another one of those commercialized CBT programs that charge to much than you can get for next to nothing. I was in a CBT group with was much lower cost and worked outstanding for me and the rest of my group and our leader said to us that if we just bought the two books we used in our group and did the main exercises in them we would have been able to cure ourselves for even less money as they were just there to push us to get better. So I would recommend buying the two CBT books we used called Been There, Done That? DO This! by Sam Obitz and Feeling Good by David Burns and focus on the thought countering exercise called a TEA form in the book by Obitz and you will feel better in a matter of months.

I think it is sad that someone would actually sell a program to help cure this stuff. Anyone who has really suffered from anxiety and know how much it takes away from you and your family would not sell such a product. they would give it away! I know I would, I wouldn't wish this stuff on my worsest enemy. Although my anxiety is no where near as bad as it was, I still am thankful to God for helping me see that most of this was caused by me. It seemed like everytime I prayed to him for help, something would show up either by email, t.v., radio, newspaper, or regular mail, I swear to you it was as if he was trying to prove to me that I wasn't sick, and that this is happening to people all over the world, and the more I read the better I got! No medicines! I was really bad, I was so bad I was picturing myself dying, my children taking care of me, trying to tell my husband goodbye,on my death bed CRAZY STUFF!!!!!
