You may still have PAWS (there is a lot of information on this board about PAWS). Have you tried any types of anti-anxiety exercises, such as deep breathing, meditation, exercise, yoga, better nutrition, muscle tension/relaxation, etc? These all have to be done regularly over a period of time to be effective. There are a lot of good books on this, such as "The Relaxation and Stress Reduction Workbook" and "The Anxiety and Phobia Workbook." Both are available on Amazon and get great reviews. They have helped me reduce my stress and anxiety without any medication. I think there is an anxiety and depression board on here as well.
