Support Groups
Close Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI had a complete breakdown in 97 and have never been the same. I have had genetic mental issues my entire life, ene childhood. But that in itself is another story
Treatments
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Working / Worked
- Very helpful. Unfortunately my CBT ws lost because of insurance loss
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- lost counseling because insurance was lost
- Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
- With out my 84 years old mother, who by the way is sharp as a tack I could have never survive.
- Zoloft Working / Worked
- I hate Zoloft but then I hate all pills but it does work
Close Stress Management
corkie hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Open Agoraphobia & Social Anxiety
I am suffering without a reason. The experts say I have blocked out my trauma. All I know is I am terrified of people and going out in public is not something I can do. I have no friends and my phone never rings. Some times I get lonely but not often anymore since my 84 yo mother had to move in with me. That presents another issue. Mother needs to have her meds, doctor visits, etc and now I have to drive and take her, etc! Consequently, my anxiey attacks have increased, alot.
