    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Struggled with ups&downs for over 10 years now. Managed to fight through things mostly - have good job, own home etc. Made some good & some bad decisions but that's life ! Things have taken a turn for the worse recently & now really owning up to idea of challenging my depression & seeking help/guidance to turn things round.

      Treatments

      Celexa Somewhat Helpful
      increased dosage recently from 20mg to 40mg. didn't feel i was getting enough help from it. confident & hopeful the increase will help me more.
      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Working / Worked
      more or less common sense - easy to fall out of it though !
    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      Screwed many a relationship up due to a) choosing wrongly b) not dealing with my own sh*t Must improve !

      Treatments

      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      if you can't rely on either who can you rely on ?
      Talking Working / Worked
    • Open Anxiety

      usually self confident but suffer bouts of doubt & panic which at times i can't control. suffer attacks & shaking which is quite annoying. learning how ot deal with them better & recognising triggers.

      Treatments

      Lexapro Working / Worked
      take 40mg. raised dosage fro 20mg as they didn't seem to provide as much help.
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      part of CBT. really helpful but need to continue to apply the proccesses & not fall back into laziness.
