Close Depression
klear6 hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Close Amnesia
I am Frosty (25/f). I began suffering from seizures a few years ago. I was diagnosed with Juvenile Onset Epilepsy. A little over a year ago I had a major one and when I awakened with a gap in my memory spanning about 6 years. I am still trying to catch up and cope with the magnitude of the loss but my biggest problem is that I neglect seeing my neurologist out of depression and frustration with the medical establishment. I need to do what's best for myself but I can't seem to find the will.
Open Anxiety
My name is Frosty (25/f). I have been dealing with severe anxiety since the age of four. It seems to have gotten worse over the years. It mostly relates to dealing with other people; I am afraid of human interaction including going to public places, seeing my friends, and especially using the phone. I do have problems with internet communications as well but hopefully the support will help.
Treatments
- Ativan Working / Worked
- I am so thankful that there is a drug that can help calm me down enough to think more rationally when I am having an anxiety or panic attack but I am angry at the stigma attached to taking benzos which makes it feel like something to be ashamed of.
- Klonopin Working / Worked
- I take this to treat my epilepsy. I seem to have less anxiety attacks when I remember to take my medication on a regular basis so I think that it is helping. I feel like I need to take less Ativan because I am more capable of calming myself.
- Paxil Not Working
- I was prescribed this by a gastro-enterologist because my anxiety was causing me severe stomach problems but it did not seem to help and had some side effects that were making it more of a trouble for me than a treatment. Not to mention he prescribed it in liquid form and it tasted like I was trying to drink perfume. My psychiatrist took me off of it and tried Prozac instead which worked for awhile but was eventually ineffective.
