      HI honi, I hope you are ok, Ive been thinking of you and hon please see it for what it is, facts only try not get too emotional about it because you do need to go to class and exams no matter how much youve missed, not going will only throw you in a bigger downward spiral and you don't need that and you don't deserve that. Love you to bits and if you can let me know what happened k. *hug* take care of yourself ok, you are worth so much *hug*

    • Close Physical & Emotional Abuse

      Hi I'm Em, this is a bit about me: I was abused throughout my childhood. No support from my family. Diagnosed with depression in '05. In psych hosp for awhile cos I was suicidal, treated terribly there. I have PTSD and anxiety, finding it hard to survive, death seems the only way out and I dont' have the support I need to get through the struggle to stay safe.

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Not Working
      Don't feel its worked at all so far. Its so draining, bringing up stuff that happened in the past and I'm exhausted as it is.
      Talking Somewhat Helpful
      It sort of helps, but not every time. Often writing stuff down is good, just so its out of my head.
    • Close Sexual Abuse

      xxEmxx hasn’t entered any details for this support group.
    • Open Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

      PTSD as a result of abuse during childhood, abuse whilst a psych in patient and sexual assault. I suffer from flashbacks, panic attacks and nightmares and struggle to trust anyone, making it hard to get help, which is hard to afford anyway.

      Treatments

      Inderal Considering
      Think it helps with the tachycardia etc.
      Psychotherapy Not Working
      Don't think it helps at all. Plus its so expensive. But the thought of changing and starting over, just too hard, it'd be easier on my own. Possibly starting with a new pdoc but i dunno. Its so hard to trust someone.
    • Open Panic Attacks

      i suffer from ptsd, anxiety and have struggled with depresion in the past. trying to come to terms with abuse and struggling to survive this so called life.

      Treatments

      BuSpar Not Working
      I took this for awhile even though it didn't seem to have helped. I guess I was scared maybe if it helped a bit i'd be worse if i stopped it. Turns out since stopping it I don't feel any different.
      Effexor Not Working
      i no longer take this. had side effects of feeling sick, couldn't control my temp, got sweaty all the time whereas normally i wouldn't. also had dry mouth.
      Meditation Considering
      I try breathing techniques and meditation. but they're no good when i'm having a panic attack. it doesn't provide relief.
      Psychotherapy Not Working
      It takes a lot out of me, but it hasn't helped. cant' afford to keep going. too much strain emotionally and financially.
      Seroquel Not Working
      I no longer take this. the doc thought this was responsible for my dizziness and tachycardia.
