The Anxiety in Me.

Posted on the 24 March 2014 by Jamie Gall @50states50wines

Disclosure: I am writing this post on behalf on 1Hour Break to help them spread the word about their Indiegogo campaign launch and open up the discussion on stress and anxiety. All opinions and experiences are my own.

It took me years to realize that anxiety was indeed very much apart of my life. From moments of not being able to leave for a social function because of my nerves of having to put myself out there and meet new people to the many times I’ve worried about things in life.  How will we pay for this? How should we handle this?  Or are we packed for our days outing?  Everything had to be planned.

Growing up we didn’t talk about stress or anxiety, but through life, I have experienced first hand what these things can do to a person:

Did you know?

*Stress is linked to the top five causes of death in the United States.*95 million Americans suffer from stress-related illnesses every week.*1/4 of all women in the US suffer from anxiety disorders.*Stress and anxiety suffers often self medicate with pills, alcohol, cigarettes, and food.Stress and Anxiety are very much alive, and it’s something we should be talking about.1 Hour BreakThis is where 1 Hour Break Comes into play.  1 Hour Break is: *The First all natural oral spray that relieves stress & anxiety. *It is Made from Kava Kava root, widely known in Hawaii for its stress-relieving properties. *Made more effective by adding three herbs that help with relaxation; Lobelia, Passion Flower, and Lemon Balm. 1 Hour Break is a small family start up and beginning Tuesday, March 25th they are beginning an IndieGogo campaign to raise money for manufacturing and bottling costs without getting big investors involved to make their idea come to fruition. For a person who has dealt with stress and anxiety her entire life having something like this on the market would help things tremendously.  I know my anxiety is minor compared to some others so being able to have an option such as 1 hour break during my attacks would help tremendously.
