Negative emotions (like sadness, stress, anger, etc.) causes your Serotonin production to be low; when your Serotonin level is low, you are more prone to getting Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Depression, etc.
Medication like Antidepressants (SSRI - Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) helps to boost Serotonin level.

No, it is not for mild depression only and ignore those sayings. In fact, it does help anxiety and panic-attacks as St John's Wort works like prozac. Other natural ways will be exercise, diet, more exposure to light, etc.

There are several other techniques to help cope them!

If you do get a anxiety disorder, which is doubtful because it was only when you were talking about painfull things that this occured, but it is not that big of a deal nor the end of the world. I have an anxiety disorder- I take nerve pills when I feel overly anxious. I have been fine for awhile now though. Just calm down :)Health Question & Answer
