Relaxation tapes... finally working!

I'm finally to the point where I can listen to my relaxation tapes and actually relax with them. The side effects of my meds are starting to wear off, and I can concentrate for longer periods of time now. What a relief! My anxiety level is still averaging around level 4, but at least it's not been going above that for a while, even with the added anxiety of the war and all. I'm also noticing that my moods have been less affected by those around me, in other words my codependency, self-esteem and boundaries are improving. The relaxation tape I listen to has a lot to do with all of this I believe, I try and listen to it every day or more often if I can.
