Deidra, there is another web site that I found so very helpful, [URL=http://www.consciouschoice.com/holisticmd/
There is some very interesting info about anxiety and MVP. Also there are a lot of books recommended on this web site. I think I have ordered them all, just trying to get through them.

Deidra, did you know that when your body & mind is in a state of anxiety for so long it can't tell the difference between excitement and fear? So if you have reached that state you can't even enjoy a little excitement.

Sucks huh!

Deidra, Some of my earliest memories are of my father TELLING us that we should be seen and not heard. That we had nothing to say of value until we were at least 18 years old. That if is wasn't for us he would be rich. We (there were four of us) got a whipping everynight because we made noise and he didn't want to hear any noise. He never bought me a birthday present or a Christmas present. He left when I was 8 years old, but stayed on the fringe of our lives as my mother never divorced him. He came back when I was about 16 and wanted to take back the role of Father, only we didn't need him then. I believe some people shouldn't breed.

My children are the most important people in my life. When they were little I used to tell them I felt sorry for all the other moms in the world because God gave me the very best kids. I never wanted my children to feel inferior like I did. And my reward was incredible. I do have the best kids! My daughter told me when she was about 18 (she is 25 now) that she always felt she could tell me anything because I never made her feel stupid. So it was confirmed that I really did something right! The key to any dysfunction is to break the cycle, and we can't break the cycle until we accept we are dysfunctional and educate ourselves as to how not to pass it on to our kids. So what ever your anxieties are, learn about them objectively and maybe we can keep our kids from suffering from the same stuff we suffer from.
Just a thought

Susie,
Excitement vs. anxiety. Bingo! That's where I have found myself. I was NEVER IN MY LIFE an anxious person until all these symptoms started taking over. Performing used to be exciting, but the symptoms over the past few years have acted otherwise. The excitement has turned against me. Now, each performance is preceeded with "Will I make it thru without creating a scene?" and then, "Please, God, just let me get thru this without feeling bad." I can no longer actually concentrate fully on my job, nor enjoy it - whether playing or singing or conducting - because I am not free of the worry of what to do if I feel really bad, or if there is someone who could pinch hit on the spot, or the extreme embarrassment if I should pass out or have to leave the stage. Luckily, taking a tiny dose of Inderol about an hour ahead has made a tremendous difference, but I no longer enjoy performing - I endure it. That really sucks.

For what it might be worth.........back to hormones-
I have been able to put together a pretty detailed diary of symptoms, stress/emotions and supplements taken over the past few weeks. I know everyone has different issues but this is what I have found for me. I am almost sure this is affecting me cyclically. I can be absolutely fine and then boom, and the symptoms go just as fast. These will last a week or ten days. I am assuming this would fall into the PMS part of a cycle. Since I have had a hysterectomy I never paid attention to "cycles". Obviously either my "raisins" are still making an effort or some other part of me has taken on the job. (Or not, it could just be the moon ) For me this all fits in with taking Premarin for 10 years and having MVP symptoms. I will now attempt to do something with this information, but what I don't know. Maybe look into treating PMS?
