About Me
Hey Everyone! My Name is Sarah. I am a 20 year old college student originally from San Antonio. I joined DS a few months ago when I started to have some issues with anxiety and trichotillomania, but now that seems to be minor to the other issues I face. Feel free to message me. :)

Little Love
Sarah, You hang in there girl! I am sorry you have to go through this at all, let alone at 20! I hope there is a cure soon, they've been doing things with stem cells. Also, some Lupies go into remission for years, even decades, maybe you'll be one of them. You keep talking to us, your support group, and we'll always be there for you. It is a hard row to hoe. Wonder what is up with your Mom that your pain and frustration make her angry? Don't know on that one, maybe she feels helpless?

Support Groups
Close Anxiety
I have always felt jittery when it comes to things, even small things. My mind is always racing and I almost always have that uneasy feeling in my chest. It is too much for me to bare. In addition I have also recently found out that I have trich. I dont know if they are connected, but I only pull when my emotions are put of control.
Treatments
- Zoloft Working / Worked
- Works great for me, never experienced any side effects.
Close Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
I have had symptoms of OCD for years. I didnt actually put a name to my problem until I started college. College is when things got worse and out of control. My repetative habits were taking so much time out of the day and my negative thoughts were making me sick. I was able to somewhat control it with this therapy, it has helped but I am aware that I need professional help.
Treatments
- Zoloft Working / Worked
- Works wonders, never experienced any side effects.
Open Trichotillomania (Hair Pulling)
Type: TrichotillomaniaI started pulling my eyelashes out in middle school. Through out high school and college it became more and more frequent. I joined DS specifically to get help for this problem for awhile I had stopped pulling but when I got diagnosed with lupus I started again.
Open Lupus
Recently diagnosed 20 yr. old.
Treatments
- Plaquenil Too Soon to Tell
- I have only been on this drug for a couple of weeks my doctor says it will take a couple of months.
- Prednisone Somewhat Helpful
- I'm on 10mg a day I want to say it is working, at least Im not in the hospital
Open Migraine Headaches
