Also if you do have high blood pressure the drugs that lower can and do make a huge difference. I thought I was going crazy, every day I felt good, but by 10 am I just started getting tunnel vision and feeling awful. The doctor said that the blood pressure coming down would make me feel better and it totally did.

The doctor also said that some people swear by the anti anxiety drugs but we were both reticient to go to that stuff.

There is also certain personality types more prone and you know if you are the type. Also drinking may help temporarily alleviate but makes it worse the next day, so that doesn't work well.
Hey, speak for yourself. I've never found a problem I couldn't dissolve with a bottle of good hooch. I realize that doesn't work for everybody, but it works well from me. I've been able to quite successfully drown an ex-wife, a dad who died from pancreatic cancer and other sundry crap life likes to throw at a guy with a bottle of good scotch or tequila.
