It's been a combination of therapy and making some different lifestyle choices. I find that very strenuous physical activity a couple days a week has a good affect. I haven't been able to work out that intensly because of pregnancy though. (While I am not currently dealing with issues that risk the baby, I have to keep things toned down in order to prevent certian risks.) So it has been harder to manage. Fortunately I am more than a decade past the time I was at my worst. So it isn't as hard to cope when the anxiety builds. I still have anxiety attacks. But I also have a supportive husband to help me through it. I also believe that if natural aproaches don't help, medication is always a valid option. Different people have differing severity of symptoms. And so that sometimes neccitates different treatments.
I think that I manage well with the mental health issues I do have to deal with (combo of ocpd and anxiety.) Part of life is doing your best with the hand you have been dealt. I'm happy to say that aside from a few issues that come up occasionally, I am at a place where I live a fairly normal life. Knowing my weaknesses means that I can challange them.
