    • Close Depression - Teen

      I first started feeling very low when i was 13, but everyone put it down to pressure at school and didn't think anything more of it. For 2 years i struggled with the 'black feeling until i was diagnosed with severe clinical depression and anxiety in 2005. Since then, none of the treatments have worked and nothing seems to be getting any better...

      Treatments

      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Not Working
      They spent all their time ignoring what i had to say and put my depression down to all the wrong reasons.
      Lexapro Too Soon to Tell
      Just started on this...
      Prozac Not Working
      Had no effect whatsoever and gave more suicidal thoughts
      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      Helped me to talk a bit more openly about my feelings and problems.
      Remeron Not Working
      This anti-depressant made me feel sick and exhausted all the time. I never worked for me and even gave me a blood disorder known as neutropenia (note to everyone on this drug, it is extremely rare for this to occur!). This is my third anti-depressant drug and it has been of no help whatsoever.
    • Close Hearing Loss & Deafness
      Type: Sensorineural (Moderate)

      I was born (they think..) with a hearing loss affecting both ears called a sensory neurine impairment. For those that don't know, the condition means that the hair on the coclear are dead. i have very little hearing in one ear, and slighlty more in the other. Since i have a different frequency loss on each side, i can only use one hearing aid at any one time (Grrr!!) and rely on lip reading for the rest of the time!

      Treatments

      Hearing Aids Somewhat Helpful
      I could only wear one hearing aid at a time as i have a different frequncy loss in each ear, so my hearing is often not that helpful..
      Lip Reading Working / Worked
      I find lip reading very hard work and often come back from school very tierd with a thumping headache lol!
    • Open Tinnitus

      Basically, the ringing in my ears drives me nuts sometimes, especially at night!! I have a hearing impairment as well which doesn't help matters. People tend to think i'm strange when i talk about the noises in my head lol!

    • Open Teen Anxiety

      Anxiety is something that i have suffered from since a young age, but never has it got as bad as the past few months. It often feels like my guts have turned in worms and often, my fears have no relevence to whats going on around me!

    • Open Seasonal Affective Disorder

      Until recently, i couldn't understand why my depression got a zillion times worse in the winter. Unfortunately, now i KNOW why...

    • Open Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Yuck....

      Treatments

      Celexa Not Working
      They won't change it, even though i tell them it does about as much good as swallowing jelly beans!!
      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Not Working
      stupid doctors!
      Lexapro Not Working
      Hate this, hate life!!
      Prozac Not Working
      STUPID!!!!!
      Psychotherapy Not Working
    • Open Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

      Owch, my stomach hurts....

      Treatments

      Buscopan Not Working
      You don't wanna know the side effects of this...
      Chamomile Somewhat Helpful
      although i hated the taste of the tea.
      Imodium Too Soon to Tell
      well, at least the side effects on this aren't as bad.
      Spasmonal Working / Worked
      Works well with my period cramps at least lol.
    • Open Vegetarians & Vegans
      Type: Vegetarian

      Became vegi because i just can't stand the idea of other living things inside me lol. Have lost weight and my skin has become better since, i've been vegi for nearly 8 years now!

      Treatments

      Patience Working / Worked
      Slightly peeved by the lack of vegi options in supermarkets and resturaunts though....
    • Open Autism / Autism Spectrum

      Some of my familly members are on various points of the autistic spectra and i just wanted to understand more about it!

    • Open Raynaud's Disease

      Pins and needles, light headed all the time especially when standing. JOY!!
