Hey all,..just wanna tell about my social phobia ,..I was very bad around the public , was always hiding out from conversations and sometimes I would get panic attacks for different reasons. I went for acupuncture and the acupuncturist told me that it was my nervous system ,..so I did a couple of weeks of it and he gave me chinese herbs for 2 weeks ,...I feel fine now and have no problems with getting nervous in front of the public,..I am positive that this worked for me..any questions feel free to ask.

How many sessions of accupuncture did you go to? Did it hurt?  I get really bad panic attacks and would love for something to help me out with them.

thanks all,..I had acupunture done for 2 weeks,..I believe it was 5 visits total..I paid about 375$ total. I would highly recommend this for any type of anxiety or social phobia. (Teachergirl),...acupuncture is not painful,..the needles are so tiny,.Its just a little bit uncomfortable because you have to stay still for about 15 min,..so no scratching your nose,..you will cramp up if you move until the needles are removed. Its just about 12needles total (estimated) on your body. They just pinch a little bit going in but nothing to scream about they are put in fast.
Id like to hear if anyone tries acupunture and let me know how it worked out. ;)
