God is myth. If he were real, you wouldn't be on the internet asking strangers for their prayers. You are your lord and master. You can itemize your issues, research ideas for making things better, and then do those things. If you have access to RU-vid, you have access to internet research tools. There are so many ideas for calming, dealing with anxiety, being able to sleep, etc. Maybe you'll end up with a different version of things you used to do. No big deal. If you nap instead of straight sleep, it's still rest. teeth and gums. Brush well and regularly and get a good mouthwash. One with chlorhexedine will help to clear and heal gums. It is prescription only. Meanwhile, get a no-alcohol antiseptic mouthwash. Swish at least 30 seconds. After eating, if you can't brush right away, drink water, swish and swallow. Do this a few times to rinse food from your teeth and gums. There are solutions. However, reliance on a non-existent super being will not do it. This is YOU. And, YOU CAN DO IT.

I have suffered from labile blood pressure for years. My regular BP is good about 120/70, then for no obvious reason it can go up extremely high. I am not an anxious person but it's a worry when this happens. Finally my Cardio recently suggested I try a very small beta-blocker dose - 12.5mg - when this happens - then, 15 minutes later a further 12.5mg. It worked like a dream.

@baddogbling 3 года назад
​@Light4you Hey, basically I had to start taking them because my anxiety got out of control. For the long term I definitely want to stop taking them but that means I need to first work though my anxiety which will take time. Don't worry about taking them if they have been really working for you, but try using other natural techniques to calm your anxiety and if those don't work then take them. That's what I did and its helped a lot. If you have any other qs feel free to ask. Good luck!

I took a Propranolol for migraines unfortunately l had to get to 80mg before the migraines stopped. The drug numbs your mind, so after 2 years of struggling to push forward and find another way, l came of it. Iv try so many other drugs none worked. I decided to go drug free and workout more when migraines stopped being constant. Been drug free for 2months now, have to be so careful what l eat and drink. I'm exercising more(swimming & yoga,have always done these exercises when able to). I'm seeing a chiropractor hoping it will help as well. Hoping to do Botox soon, got to give it a go💉 long road to get there on the NHS though, sorry Americans out there, free here. Good luck ☘ if your on this drug for anything hope it helps works for you. Alot of people on this drug for mild anxiety, long term l think exercising would be better and medication.

He can't really answer this for q few reasons. 1. He is not your personal doctor. 2. He does not know your full medical history and so cannot ethically recommend specific choices for you. 3. He did not prescribe the medication and so knows nothing about your dose, treatment protocol, etc. This video is just general information. He does day several times to work with your doctor on it. And I would say the same. If you do seek out and get a prescription for it, I hope it helps you. All the best.

Dear Erik, I have been using Propranolol in low dosage (10-20mg) to help with performance anxiety (spiking heart rate and weak voice) when doing big presentations or interviews. I use it very sparingly, perhaps once every couple months or less, depending on what's happening in life. My question - should I be using it, or should I be working through that anxiety as it seems natural for most people? What causes anxiety for me is the increased heart rate, so preventing that allows me to perform at my best and reach my full potential - BUT I don't want to be totally reliant on it and would rather not need it. I am working on this, but it requires deep internal work.

My new doc gave me this to slow down my heart rate, and work along with post partum thyroditis hyperthyroidism beta blockers. All I can say is I wish I’ve gotten this years of not decades ago. I lived with life long tachycardia. I can drive properly now. So grateful. I am cautious of the side effects, I’ll be making a video about this on my channel. I think it’s so important to tell about things that actually help us. Gain weight from this is real tho. It just is. My first month on this and it’s the best month in many many years. Grateful 🌸🌸🌸

I am pretty familiar with propranolol. It was prescribed to me a few years back. I am no longer taking it. Quick story: I discovered palpitations around 2006. They came out of nowhere after I had my very first and a really massive panic attack. It was like nothing that I had ever experienced in my whole life. ‘Doom’ doesn’t even come close to describing what I felt. From there, I regularly experienced rapid heart beats and even fluttering of the heart. Sometimes it would feel like my chest was caving in on me. The journey was extremely long, hard, and lonely. And I’ve had more ECG’s, echos and chest X-rays performed on me than I can even count, and I’m a finance professional. Today, once in a while I get rapid heart beats and fluttering. So, I can empathize with anyone who may be experiencing it, and I’m so, so sorry. Hopefully, you have family to help you cope and heal while you receive treatment and advice from a doctor. Unfortunately for me, my family was not supportive, but then again, they never were. Take care and please be well! ❤️

You don't need propranolol for anxiety. Good luck getting a doctor to prescribe it in the United States. The American Heart Association only supports three beta blockers, metropol, carvedilol, and nibevilol. But really, they all work to some extent with anxiety. Carvedilol has done wonders for me.

I'm 20, Male, 53Kg, 168cm/5'6 height. Will going to gym decrease the tremor in anyway?.

I was just prescribed this for anxiety and took last evening. I woke this morning with swollen legs ankles and feet that will not abate no matter what I've tried thus far. Is this a side effect that I should be concerned about? The packaging did say to contact Dr immediately if swelling was a side effect, but since it's Sunday I'd have to do the ER. Which I don't want to do if it's not a valid emergency.

You should probably go to the ER to make sure it's nothing serious. If you really don't wanna do that then probably stop taking the medicine immediately since it's just your first dose. Your doctor will probably prescribe a different medicine that's more suitable.

Now being concerned of gaining weight taking this and slow heart rate, could I just stop taking it after just starting this? My blood pressure only spikes with my anxiety attacks come, but it doesnt happen everyday. Could i just take Propranolol on a needed basis only when i have the BP spikes with the anxiety attacks or Prozac enough to stop panic attacks?

If taken just once in a while is it difficult to take the proper dosage so that it does its job but is not overwhelming or has too much sideeffects? For example anti depression medicine has to be taken for weeks so that it works and the dosage has to be build up slowly.

@SKPlayZRaDiuM
@SKPlayZRaDiuM 2 года назад
Propranolol can decrease heart rate a little bit but it depends on the dosage. If it's only 10-20mg then it's probably not gonna have a significant impact on your heart rate. You will probably feel a bit tired at first but those symptoms begin to fade a way. If you take 20mg then you should stop it slowly even if you don't have any heart disease because it could affect the heart's rhythm.

MR Den is right. Rebound can include fast heart rate, and an increase in blood pressure, headaches, and anxiety. The withdrawal period will usually last between 3 and 6 weeks depending how long you were on the drug for. You need to find the root cause for your daughters headaches. Even if the beta blocker works, you will just be masking the symptoms and not treating the problem.
