      i am a 26 yearold mother of 3. i have a mother, brother, and sister in law going through methadone treatment for pain meds. it seemed to work at first but not anymore. my father is an alcoholic who also has a problem with cocaine. it is getting hard for me to feel like i am part of this "family". i guess i feel like the one that did something wrong and to my family that is being sober.

      Treatments

      Patience Somewhat Helpful
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      i was having panic attacks. i found a way to not let things bug me so much. how i do not know, forgiving, ignoring...i am sure it a combo of a few things.i was/am proud that i got over it without meds.
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      i talk alot to my husband and a few friends. they have never had to deal with these problems before knowing me so sometimes it is hard for them to understand.
      Writing Working / Worked
      i need to start again!!! when i was growing up i wrote and wrote everything. when i hit about 15 i took all of my notebooks and threw them in the fireplace. i think that is when i realized that i could not be so angry and hurt by my family, that i had to forgive for my own sanity and realize i could not change them. to this day i have really hard times and have a hard time mentally dealing with it.
    • Close Child Support & Custody

      roller coaster........ i am a mom of 3 with my oldest being from a previous. it has been no stop since i kicked him out 5 years ago. we started out with joint 50/50 mainly by me agreeing because of his big long sob story of wanting to be super dad......with in 8 months i was awarded sole. since then he get worse and spends less time with our daughter. does not pay cs and we go to court on average twice a year.

    • Open Anxiety

      Treatments

      Breathwork Working / Worked
      deep breaths and telling myself i am OK....It is hard to do in the middle of work though since i am pretty much center of attention.
      Meditation Working / Worked
      it worked at the time....but it take time which with 3 kids and work ect.....but to cope with recent out breaks of panic i have read 15 books in the past 2 months.....but you can only read so much!
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      whenever i am on the verge of a panic attack i just keep reminding myself that 'I CAN BREATH" AND "I AM NOT DYING" it usually works. i always have tension headaches.
    • Open Depression

      Treatments

      Celexa Not Working
      i tried it years ago when i was suffering panic attacks....made me feel to dopey.
      Meditation Somewhat Helpful
      my meditation is reading but i read to much which conflicts with my daily life. I am on a "break" right now.15 novels in 2 months when i have 3 small kids and a job....needless to say the kids were paying for it as i with the lack of sleep.
      Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
      i try....its hard....but i try!
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      used to work great....but realized all i do is talk and most of the time come up with my own answers as the reason i have coped so long with it.
      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      when i get the support!
