I tried to convince my 14 yr old who has anxiety and panic attacks that quilting would greatly reduce his anxiety but he didn't go for it. But I believe it is true, quilting and chocolate.
I do have panic and anxiety attacks and when I am bothered by something and feel an episode coming I can come into my quilting room and start quilting on soomething and it averts the episode every single time. Don't need no stinkin' valium with quilting around. Just a tall cold glass of milk.
