Question
I suffer from generalized anxiety disorder, panic attacks and major depression. I always am anxious. One slight noise sets my anxiety  off the charts. I have no sympathy nor empathy from anyone especially my brothers. They abused me as a child to my teenage years. I was also sexually assaulted as a young woman. At my current job I was harassed by a male customer that still is allowed in the store and I see all the time. I have a lot going on. My mother died of cancer three years ago and I was extremely close to. I have not one person who loves me and cares about me as she did. I cannot explain what anxiety feels like. I do describe to people as trying desperately to catch your breath and you can't. I sweat and shake. I have tried so many medications that have not controlled the symptoms at all. I feel like I am going crazy. I feel I will never get helped for this. I see a therapist and a psychiatrist. For so many years I have not been able to address and recover from the abuse. I lost my childhood now I am losing myself daily. From the anxiety, depression and the grieving, I do not know where to turn to for help. I am looked upon at work as overly sensitive. Is that a bad trait, to be sensitive? I am human. I know I'm not perfect. What can I do? I need one person who will just help me. Thank you.

I do not follow traditional methods of therapy that treat the outer symptoms or give the illusion of a cure with a bandage approach in order to make one "feel good" by denying the real issues, the inner causes. I have eleven intensive years of personal experience in many "NEW AGE" areas that have lead me to discover new ways and methods of REAL emotional healing and in turn also healing our mental and physical bodies. I work with healing ALL emotions, the mental blocks holding them in place and the physical manifestations they represent. I use the knowledge and insights I have gained through either personal experience or my experience in working with others on their healing journey. I also use my intuition and other abilities to assist others to touch and begin to heal their real issues. If you have intent to HEAL your emotions and to take responsibility for your personal well being then I may be able to assist you. If you are looking for a quick fix, don`t ask me. Reed
