1st. DIET - more importantly B - VITAMINS -- http://www.social-anxiety-disorder-resources.com/bvitamins.html --
[QUOTE
B-Vitamins
B-vitamins play a vital role in chemical processes throughout the brain and body. Research shows that unhealthy levels of essential B-vitamins like B6, B9 and B12 may contribute to poor mood and feelings related to anxiety and depression. Supplementing your diet with essential B-vitamins can have a direct effect on important neurotransmitters in the brain, such as serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine. As well, evidence suggests that B-vitamins are important cofactors that help balance and metabolize neuro-toxic chemicals that have been linked to anxiety and depression related conditions.

there is more details on each specific B-Vitamin in the link i posted... covers b1,b3,b5,b6,b9,b12..
heres another source to back up the original about B-Vitamins and there benefits for those suffering with anxiety,depression.. http://www.livestrong.com/article/454815-does-vitamin-b-help-with-anxiety/
the easiest way i have found to get the daily amount of ALL OF THESE VITAMINS @ once without having to buy 11 seperate things (you should get your b-viatims from food and not from a vitamin pill/capsule tc..)
is this
GREEN TEA ---- http://www.livestrong.com/article/486339-does-green-tea-relieve-stress/ i drink this every nite...
The anti-anxiety properties of tea don't take long to appear: You may notice increased relaxation shortly after finishing a mug of this beverage. According to an article published in the January 2008 issue of the "Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition," L-theanine http://www.livestrong.com/article/249742-l-theanine-for-anxiety/ --the relaxation-inducing amino acid found in tea--significantly increases calmness about 45 minutes after consumption, altering your brain waves to a more relaxed state for an additional 60 minutes or longer. The length and potency of tea's effects may vary, depending on the quantity and type of tea you consume.

i highly recommend --- TAOSIM --- will help your general well being and cleanse your soul.. as well as feed it with positive light and energy...
meditation and breathing exercise are also key components...
soul healing.
I would like to take you step by step through and exercise I try to do at least weekly.
I want you to close your eyes, with your feet on the ground, and imagine roots growing from your feet into the ground. Feel the earth and your connection to Her. Dig deep and count down from 10….9….you are growing roots deeper into the earth……8…7…6…5...4...3...2...1…
You are grounded and secure. Nothing can harm you on this journey…
ow I want you to imagine the color RED in your minds eye. Picture a bright red apple, or bright red roses…Take in a deep breath counting to 5 and imagine the red light coming from deep within the earth up into your body to rest in your root chakra at the base of your spine. See the red, feel it light up. Exhale the light up your spine and out the crown of your head encircling your body like a shimmering light.
Now breathe in, bringing down the red light from above. Bring the light down to your base and exhale back into the earth.
Visualize with your minds eye the color ORANGE. See a bright orange, or a beautiful orange flower. Bring the energy up from the earth to sit in the sacral space just below your umbilical region. Continue to exhale up and out and surround your body in orange light. Now in reverse. Breathe in from above and back down into the earth.
Now breathe in the color YELLOW. Imagine a great sun or yellow flower. Bring the color into you solar plexus center near the navel. Repeat. Feel the power of your self-confidence. Know your strength. You are strong and can face any problem with ease.
Next is the color GREEN. Green grass or fresh green salad. SEE the color. See the light. Bring that light into your heart. Feel the LOVE burst open from within and seal your body with LOVE and LIGHT. At this point you may burst into tears; feeling a release of emotion.
Next, I want you to see the color BLUE. Imagine a bright blue ocean or sky. Bring this light up from the earth and rest in your throat chakra. Imagine yourself being able to speak your truth. Open up in song if you feel the desire. RELEASE….Breath down from the sky and back down into the earth.
Your body is beginning to glow as you now focus on your third eye region. Imagine the color purple, a swirling energy vortex of light resting upon your brow. Know that you’re a gift and that you can heal yourself. See your path illuminate. Surround yourself in this purple light, sealing the other colors wrapped like a blanket next to your skin. Enter into a state of a state of enlightenment. At this moment you may begin to see visions. Let your mind observe what is happening around you.
i want you to see the color violet.Feel the violet light as you breathe in from the earth up and out the top of your head.You are connecting to the great web of life. Connecting with the DIVINE oneness, use your perception to connect with empathy towards humanity.Just like the root chakra connecting you to mother earth, commune with spirit through your crown. easing yournervous system. You begin to feel at peace with God or whatever belief you hold dear. Seal this light around your body and back down into the earth.
Take a moment to observe your thoughts. You are going to bring up WHITE LIGHT from the earth and sky, connecting within the electrical grid running up and down your body. I want you to take this WHITE LIGHT and expand it out creating a protective shell around your body, bringing you health and cleansing. Take this WHITE LIGHT and imagine it turning into a diamond. You are sealing your aura with this strength so that no harm may come to you. Your light will shine so bright and reflect LOVE back onto others. Feel the connection to your body and seal it tight……
At this time you may open your eyes or stay seated. Feeling the new energy within you, know that YOU ARE LOVED….
You are ONE with the UNIVERSE

I know that feel. I had severe anxiety from when i was born till i was 15. I used to worry all the time and throw up when i had to do something. I missed HELLA opportunities. Could be an amazing hooper who started playing at 5..
Anybody else suffering from this?
For those who don't, yall dont know the feeling of constantly worrying about the smallest things
Constant self doubt...i missed out on so many opportunities because of this condition...I didnt even know it had a name.
Its like, I get past one obstacle (losing weight) and here comes another one. Why me????
Anxiety is like: nikka please, sit yo ass down and be scared bytch.
Coulda started playing football young and been the shyt.
Anxiety:bytch SIT THE fukk DOWN
It wasnt until sophomore year of high school that i totally switched the fukk up, our high school varsity coach walks up to my ass and goes 'Play varsity football mah nikka
you built for that shyt"Im shook as fukk cause i aint never played but im fast so im like fukk it (I threw up before every game cause of nerves) Next thing you know im starting varsity running back and college scouts roll up to my school to watch.(No
) starting shooting guard on the basketball team. Only reason i conquered it was i took hella pills and herbal remedies, breathing in and out and also I throw up before I gotta do sports so when im on the field/court i don't throw up there. Then i took a step back and re-evaluated my life and said "fukk missing out on shyt im built for" I still throw up before every game i play unless its pickup with friends.
Anxiety is a bytch but you just gotta go for broke, "We all have to die so why live in fear" is what i think. (nikkas still aint catching me on a plane, in a fast car or on a rollercoaster though)

Some of yall mufukkas got problems
Welcome to the club. That first panic attack is going to be crazy. 
what?!?Welcome to the club. That first panic attack is going to be crazy.
im thinking that it has something to do with me being in the 4th quarter of my soon to be old life and my thoughts and worries are all over the place which causes me to be severely anxious
You'll feel like you're having a heart attack. Dying.

I'll be out at work, school or with friends and get to worrying about stupid things or getting extra anxious over shyt the average person wouldnt.
I'm sorry girlie... It gets better, I promise
