[Averagecel]

why do you need it

Since last month I'm experiencing these anxiety waves, and often they feel overwhelming like a panic attack. My brain has started to activate the fight or flight mode for no reason.

Idk if it's due to fin (I stoped taking fin 3 days ago just to check), alcohol consumption in the past, or due to medication.

If this doesn't go away with time, I'll get that procedure for sure.

Meds no

I take risperdone and xanax, sometimes akineton (biperiden) to treat dystonia or dyskinesia.

I will try to stop risperdone cold turkey but not xanax because of withdrawal symptoms, I'll have to stop xanax slowly

Yeah that's probably true, I'm going to stop taking any meds this year. But for now it's difficult because when the symptoms I mentioned start the meds calm me down, so it has become a vicious cycle.

So should I just confront the overwhelming stress and let it go away or what?

Maybe I should start to go outside more often and do physical exercises idk

I don't recommend it, when you have surgery on it you will affect emotional regulation and social decision making. The amygdala is crucial in the processing of emotions, especially fear, aggression and the evaluation of potentially dangerous stimuli.

In theory it eliminates anxiety, but it also eliminates fear, risk, etc. So your personality will change, you will find it difficult to recognize your emotions, you will not be able to or will find it difficult to generate emotional memories, inappropriate behavior, etc.

Basically it is the transformation to an npc

Yeah, maybe in India. They don't have to destroy both amygdale from what I've read, just the one that's responsible for fear and anxiety.

I will save money for this procedure, but I need to do more research to know for sure if it eliminates panick attacks and anxiety in general, not just the flight or fight response.

When I'm moneymaxxed I'll find a doctor in Indida who wants to do it on me.

Yes, but life without anxiety is great. That's how I feel when I take a high dose of Xanax. I'm not sure if it makes you not recognize all emotions though. Are you sure about that?

Sorry idk man

it's okay.. how old are you by the way? and what are the risks of the procedure you mentioned?

I had specific social anxiety and depression, after taking many medications to counteract both and getting worse I was offered this surgery, I consulted several doctors and some of them told me about these consequences.

A few years ago I stopped taking medication and started meditating, exercising and taking cold baths, I started reading philosophy and trying to understand what was happening to me, I think it was the best thing I ever did for myself.

I won't lie to you, I'm probably still very "depressed"; I've become more nostalgic and reflective, very deep; and sometimes I have anxiety, but it's minimal compared to what I was going through at that time. What I did may not work for everyone, because I tried it with people close to me, but the key is to try to understand yourself.​

@toji. mentioned some of them itt

But I've also read on quora about this procedure, and apparently one of the side effects is not being able to recognize objects or smth and familiar faces. That would suck if true. Imagine not being able to recognize your mother's face or your other family members.

Search it on quora and reddit, and other sites.

That sounds legit

How bad was your anxiety? Personally when the anxiety starts to kick in I stand up and start walking like a zombie. I'm on a fight or flight mode. It's always intense, but sometimes it gets too overwhelming, idk it's weird, I've never experienced this in the past.

 

[Averagecel]

@toji. and how long do you have to meditate to reach your level, or the level where you don't have panic attacks anymore? I know it takes months, but how many months?

Sorry for the delay. Well, I started suffering from anxiety in 2022, I started dating a lot of girls, and all of a sudden, while at the mall, I started getting stomach pains and nausea, cold sweats and dizziness. It seems that my social battery was depleted and triggered anxiety.

After that, I started having anxiety attacks on public transportation, feeling like I needed to go to the bathroom, cold sweats, feeling like I couldn't breathe, etc. Basically, being on public transportation caused a lot of anxiety, the people, the impossibility of not going to the bathroom in the subway, etc.

Since I was studying at the university, I couldn't not use public transportation, I started using techniques to try to solve the attacks, I started getting up ridiculously early to go on the subway with the least amount of people possible, I started using earplugs and covering them with headphones and background music, I got on the subway with my eyes closed and only opened them when I got off.

Everything got worse when I started to feel that when I got on the subway I would not be able to breathe or swallow, I felt that my throat would close and if I swallowed I would faint or choke.

Fortunately, this stage of anxiety hit me a few weeks before winter break. So I started doing everything I told you, it's been years of work, I won't lie to you.

@toji. and how long do you have to meditate to reach your level, or the level where you don't have panic attacks anymore? I know it takes months, but how many months?

I still do, at that moment I started using breathing techniques to control my heart rate, and I don't have panic attacks anymore.

You know what cured me? I started to read a lot of Nietzsche and Camus, as ridiculous as it sounds, (I owe them a lot), and from all that they revealed, I was left with something clear, whatever happens in the moment I am in now, no one will care, because the universe is so big, so infinite, that if a ridicule happens, an inconvenience happens right now, it will not matter, because life does not matter, you do not matter to anyone, if you are overwhelmed in public, people will help you, if you pee yourself in public, people will laugh, but, what does it matter?
