Just reading this thread again triggered a memory. Thirty years ago when I had the anxiety attack that first got me into meditation I noticed something I wouldn’t have normally. In the first couple of weeks before I got the anxiety under control again with relaxation response exercises, a lot of TV shows would trigger a rise in anxiety (the stomach cramps were a clear indicator). I wonder how much more tension we subject ourselves to by constantly watching exciting action/suspense shows? Anxiety seems to have a cumulative effect.
