Seasonal anxiety? does it really exist?!


Question: i was having the worst aniety attacks yesterday and was barely able to leave my house, it was really, really bad. i always take a holistic approach before taking valium, but it was just taking hold of me yesterday. then today i was talking to my neighbor who happens to be a close friend and i was telling her about yesterday, it was strange, she was experiencing the same exact feelings of anxiety, down to the curling toes and stiffness of the whole body, and then feeling someone was standing on her chest. so i was wondering if seasonal anxiety really exists. i also experienced the same anxiety attacks last year around the same time of year....does it really exist? thank you in advanced for your help....

Anxiety attacks are linked to a lack of seretonin in the brain and when not caused by a direct phobia (like snakes) are caused by depression. At this time of year there is a lot to feel down about (including a lack of sun) therefore it is only natural you will feel more anxious.
The best solution is to face the attacks, then ignore them. Get out and about and don't dwell on them.

Yes it exists

yes it has to due with exposure to sunlight. close your eyes tight and look toward the sun for 5-10 minutes everyday you can.
