Support Groups
Close Alcoholism
I've recently been able...well, partly forced due to financial strain...to cut back on the drinking pretty drastically. I think I would characterize myself as a "problem drinker" more than a full-blown alcoholic. I sure miss it when I don't have it, though...
Treatments
- Willpower Working / Worked
Close Anxiety
I have constant low-grade anxiety that sometimes blossoms into full blown panic. I can't really afford therapy or medicine, even with my crappy insurance.
Treatments
- Meditation Somewhat Helpful
Open Codependency

Open Family & Friends of Bipolar
My GF was recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder. No surprise to me, really, but she's taking it kind of hard.
Open Financial Challenges
So I was talking to my financial advisor the other day and he's all like, "you know, you really ought to get some money...."
Open Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
OldScratch hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Open Impotence & Erectile Dysfunction
I have mental problems, and sometimes performance anxiety or whatever.
Open Pulmonary Embolism
Big,and apparently idiopathic, PE in the left lung, with significant infarction and ischemia as well...very painful I might add...at the end of July, 2008. I thought I was a relatively healthy guy, and here I came pretty close to dying for no evident reason.
Treatments
Open Migraine Headaches
OldScratch hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Open Sex / Pornography Addiction
I have had an issue with pornography ever since I was a kid, and would steal my dad's Playboy/Penthous/Hustler mags and jack off like a fiend. I still tend to jack off like a fiend, fairly compulsively, and it definitely has a negative impact on my relationships. No more internet porn for me, though...my home computer died and I can't afford a new one. I try not to jack off at work....
Open TMJ
OldScratch hasn’t entered any details for this support group.Open Healthy Sex
Somehow, between all the psychological and medical problems, the financial difficulties, and the changing nature of my relationship with my SO after six years, my sex life has disappeared. I want it back. Oh and also, I'm pretty sure she has severe endometriosis which causes intercourse to be painful for her, which causes us not to have sex :(
