    • Close Anxiety

      I have anxiety. diagnosed after I was in a severe car accident. Being knocked out triggered something in me that allowed my anxiety to spiral out of control. I was fired from a job for the first time. I could not control my emotions anymore. I started taking Effexor and it helped. until I stopped taking it for a year. I ended up with 2 week long insomnia and my doctor (whom I had not seen in a year.) told me to go back on my medication. it is still working as long as I take it.

      Treatments

      helps
      Effexor Working / Worked
      works. if I dont take it I can not sleep. I still deal with anxiety but its easier to deal with when you get your rest.
    • Close Eating Disorders

      I have always been a heavy girl. I went down to 120 pounds (for me too much loss) by moving out and not having enough money to eat. I ate McDonalds for 2 years everyday. I was wasting away. not to mention the diariah you experience with a McD's diet. Now I have gained back all my weight because I moved back home (my parents said that I HAD to come home cause I was wasting away.) Which I needed because i did not want to admit that I had failed. now I over eat at night !! getting heavier ...
