This article is interesting, if a bit confusing - a new smartphone-app treatment for anxiety has gotten some confusing results...definitely something that needs to be investigated further...

Interesting - anxiety therapy doesn't seem to work as well in the elderly. I wonder why?

  hm that's interesting. it looks like the one-on-one cognitive therapy works the best in the elderly, according to the article...but still not as well as it works in younger people. 2/13

This article talks about how people think they would act vs. how they would really act in an embarassing social situation. It plays on an illusion how they think they would experience social anxiety.

  Huh! Very interesting study. I suppose it makes sense - if I watched something that made me feel a negative emotion, I guess I'd be less likely to put myself out there.2/2

  oh wow, very good news! See, exercise in general just is all around a good thing for you, mentally and physically. Really enjoyed this part, "The largest reduction in symptoms occurred in the group that performed weight-lifting exercises." I should take up lifting weights! seriously, it would help my anxiety a ton. I'd have to start with the 5 pounders though. :P1/30

Jeffrey VanWingen M.D. posted the blog Old Age or Something More? Symptoms of Alzheimer's.
Many of my patients come to me concerned about their memory. They can t remember names. They are forgetful in their day-to-day tasks. This often begins a cascade of worry culminating in the question, Do I have Alzheimer s Disease?...
