I went through the same thing last year, and some how got through it. I'm just frustrated that i was doing so well, and some how fell back into depression.

      I've only been on it for about 2 weeks now, and i know they say it takes 4-6 weeks for it to kick in, but boy do i feel as if i have a new brain or something! Lol Yeah, its really helping me i think.
      Psychotherapy Working / Worked
      Been to 3 sessions so far, each time i feel less and less nervous, my counselor is sooo nice and nonjudging, I feel like i could tell her anything. Sometimes i have trouble with racing thoughts, but she seems to completely understand. It's really helping me.

      Without support from my Family I honestly don't think I would be here.
      Writing Somewhat Helpful
      I like to write in my journal on here and on paper, if i'm having a rough day or just bad thoughts, helps me vent and get some emotion out. Sometimes its hard for me to write, other times its easy to just like the pencil take over.

    • Open Anxiety

      Treatments

      BuSpar Too Soon to Tell
      BuSpar Somewhat Helpful
      I went to the doctors yesterday and she switched me from taking this to prozac, I think the Buspar did help a little with my anxiety, i noticed that usually when i am getting ready to go somewhere i freak out sometimes with the way i look but i was anixety free. Only thing I didn't like was it made my heart race the first time i took it, and sometimes made me weak or dizzy, overall i'd reccomend it.
    • Open Hypothyroidism

      Treatments

      Synthroid Somewhat Helpful
      Im on a very low dose for synthroid because they say i'm almost inbetween of being normal and having hypothyroidism. Runs in my family. I feel really dizzy sometimes and cold all the time, could just be my anxiety also though.
    • Open Children Of Divorced Parents

      My parents got a divorce when i was in the 5th grade. I've always wanted my parents to be happy together, and i can't and won't ever see them with someone else. My dad had an affair and that is the main reason for the divorce. in the 11th grade now and my dad is moved back in because to be honest: Money. mom and dad get into pretty bad fights often and they're never resolved right. As much as they deny it I am put in the middle often. I wish, so badly that i find my true love & we last forever.

      I myself am NOT an Alcoholic. But, i am affected by this disease. My mother is an alcoholic and going from having a great childhood, to divorced parents, to my mom becoming an alcoholic has had a bigger affect on my than i realized. At the time I wasn't really mentally affected i was too worried about my mom, now that she has been sober for over a year i've became very depressed and anxiety. it doesn't really make since that i'm like this after she's doing better, but that's life i suppose

      I've never been diagnosed with low blood sugar, BUT i definitely get the symptoms of having it. Sometimes while im showering i start feeling really weak and dizzy and have to get out before im done. one time i puked because of it, it was horrible. Also, if i'm lying down and get up right away i get light headed and tingles in my head and swim head like. Shaky, and sometimes my feet get very cold and numb. idk if those are all symptoms of low blood sugar but, yeah! haha.
