    • I’m With You

      From starflower October 16

      I suspect that you learned a great deal from those previous relationships/experiences and you will do things differently this time. It also seems that this is what was supposed to happen because you were not looking for it, so you didn't force a relationship that wasn't meant to be. I have a feeling you will both be very happy!

    • Close Fibromyalgia

      I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia two years ago and now am learning to live with it. I know my limitations and try not to overdo it.

      Treatments

      Elavil Working / Worked
      Helps me sleep better, but I awaken in the morning feeling drugged and more tired than I usually do.
      Heat Working / Worked
      Constantly have to have heat on my lower back/sacrum area.
      Lyrica Working / Worked
      Taking 75 mg. 2x a day, but have some bleed-through pain on occassion.
    • Close Panic Attacks

      I was diagnosed with panic disorder in 1993 after going to doctor after doctor. I've also been on Paxil (paroxetine) since then and it has worked wonderfully! Never had another panic attack.

      Treatments

      BuSpar Not Working
      Didn't do a thing for me.
      Paxil Working / Worked
      Been on this for 15 years, and it worked wonders! Will have to be on it for the rest of my life.
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      Needed therapy in conjunction with medication.
    • Open Pet Bereavement

      My friend's poodle came up missing more than a week ago. We both loved him very much and still do! We've lost hope that he will return.
