    • About Me

      Hey I'm Elizabeth, I'm 20 years old, going to university for comunications. I have dealt with depression, addiction, self injury, suicide and most recently panick/anxiety attacks(don't really know what the difference is). I have helped people on this site before, mostly in the SI department...I originally came on here to help people, but everyonce and a while I need a helping hand. If you want to talk, just message me and I will be more than happy to help in anyway I can. *hugs*

    • Little Love

      From sydneybarrie October 15

      Hey Liz- I'm doing okay. I'm just in a constant struggle with my anxiety/panic and now a new bout of depression. But regarding your last post about the medication making you sleepy...I've found that Ativan is really great for that. It actually doesn't make me sleepy unless I'm already sleepy...if that makes any sense. Ativan just kind of works in a way that calms your central nervous system and just takes the edge off. I'm really sensitive to medicines so I just take .5 mg(the lowest dose) if I'm panicky during the day. At night I'll take 1mg just to ensure that I don't wake up panicking. It works. But really, Ativan is pretty mild when it comes to all the benzodiazapines(xanax,klonopin, etc). I haven't tried it but my doc says Klonopin is basically the same as Ativan it just lasts longer...so idk. There's a lot of options. here I go rambling on i'm sorry haha...live well girl and keep me updated! i need some fellow panickers to talk to hehe

    • Close Self-Injury

      hello everyone, I joined this group because I am trying to help people stop their addiction through my own experiences and how I lived to tell my tale. I will try and comment as many things as I can but if you have any personal questions just e-mail me :)

      Treatments

      Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
      it was pretty annoying talking to someone about how you tried to kill yourself and they always seemed surprised on how much I cutted when I did, I didn't like how I felt like I was being judged. But that was just my personal experience
      Rubber Bands Somewhat Helpful
      the rubber bands helped with the pain part but I also loved the blood, so it worked but not in the long run
      Talking Working / Worked
      Talking about it is always an akward subject unless you are talking to another SI, but I have helped half a dozen people out of their bad habits and it was purley based on telling my story and how I stopped.
    • Close Panic Attacks
