if you have anxiety, you wanna stay away from uppers, Dr. Feelgood. limit your stimulants. smoking, soda, all that shit. and sometimes, the BA will give me a very similar effect as to an anxiety attack. you wanna do stuff that insures yourself mentally that you're going to be ok. for me, that means blood pressure medicine & xanax. maybe even a mild anit-depressant might help. if you are young and still under someones insurance, or if you have your own, discuss it with your doctor.
