I have anxiety but haven't talked to any doctor about it. I'm hoping to start therapy when I get to the front of the waitlist. If I were offered meds I would refuse. I'm sure it helps tons of people but I feel like it's something I would get used to and depend on and I don't want to be dependent on drugs. I already take a lot of advil or tylenol for my headaches, don't need something else.

My anxiety doesn't wake me up and I have never heard of feet being numb from that. Could it be something else?

I would prefer to take natural remedies for my anxiety. I would be open to CBD or a glass of wine a night (even though I don't like wine and rarely drink) if it were to help me manage. Or just retrain my brain to not have scary thoughts with the help of a therapist.

I hope someone here has better answers.
