Sorry if I gave the impression that this is one more thing to worry about. I figured that since most people with Anxiety and Panic are already stressed that "stress" is something they are trying to erradicate from their lives. And although pharmeceuticals are good, there are other ways to reduce stress.

It is yet another thing to worry about - leading to more stress and possibly imminent death!
