  • Support Groups

    • Close Panic Attacks

      I have been suffering with Panic Attack for about 10 years. It has really hindered my lifestyle and social behavior. I feel very isolated and lonely dealing with the panic attacks. I'm glad to find a community that understands this problem.

      Treatments

      Ativan Working / Worked
      It Helps with my Anxiety. It is working rather well.
      Klonopin Somewhat Helpful
      It helped calm me during my attacks but did not stop the attacks, I stop taking the med and my attacks have diminished in number.
      Meditation Not Working
      Hard to shut down my mind and relax
      Patience Somewhat Helpful
      Very hard and difficult but if I'm in control of my situation I can use patience but if I feel I'm not in control of my situation, patience does not work.
      Paxil Not Working
      I felt more depressed on the med.
      Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
      It works if you are in control of yourself and not in a full blown attack
      Prozac Working / Worked
      Currently is helping, have increase dosage to see if mental health improves.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      I felt frustrated after some sessions and I felt great after some sessions. It is a long process.
      Xanax Not Working
      It made my mental health worst. I felt I was going crazy
      Zoloft Somewhat Helpful
      Gained weight and was not very active but my mental health improved slightly

    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I have episodes of major depression. Sometimes, I can't even get out of bed. Right now, my depression is not severe but it still lingers. I've been dealing with this since my Pre-Teen years but thought it was growning pains. I'm still struggling with it but it is getting better day by day.

      Treatments

      Celexa Not Working
      Made me neverous.
      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      I have to give it more attention. But with depression, I did't want to go to therapy.
      Effexor Working / Worked
      It is working wonders. I'm glad to have found the med.
      Lexapro Not Working
      Too strong of a med, made me loopy
      Paxil Not Working
      Made me tired, sleep a lot and gained a lot of weight.
      Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
      Depends how low I am feeling but positive thinking does help
      Prozac Working / Worked
      Currently taking med, seems to be helping.
      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      Family and Friends can only help so much, it is difficult for them to understand if they have never experience depression.
      Wellbutrin Working / Worked
      It has turned my world around. I feel so much better.
      Zoloft Not Working
      Made me tired and gained weight which made me more depressed
