Close Anxiety
I have struggled with depression since I was about 13, and when I was about 16 began to experience severe anxiety. At the worst I didn't leave the house for nearly 3 weeks. I had psychotherpy and medication and thought I was all better for some years until a couple of months ago I started to get full-blown anxiety again. I'm terrified that I've got something else, like schizophrenia. I just feel so scared all the time.
Treatments
- Breathing Exercises Somewhat Helpful
- I do calming breath exercises and deep breathing. I find t usually helps.
- Paxil Somewhat Helpful
- It worked to begin with, but I had awful side effects. I was on it for 6 years and hated it by the end - it made me very erratic, and the withdrawals were horrendous. I am doing all i can to avoid ANY antidepressants now. Deal with the cause - don't band-aid it
- St. John\'s Wort Working / Worked
