      Music Working / Worked
      I have used music since I was a teen to get through boring or uninteresting tasks. I use it now while I clean the house. Keeps me moving.
      Research Somewhat Helpful
      Ritalin Working / Worked
      For me this has been amazing (been taking it for 2 months). The only draw back I have had is about 2 hours after I take it I am so focused that I actually realize," wow im really focused". plus after it wears off I am either compleatly dog tired or so energized i can't sleep. In my job I get regular Adrenaline rushes and from the meds it takes me a little longer to get calm again. I will say that it makes my heart race too, but that has gotten better with time and adjustment.
    • Close Lesbian Relationship Challenges

      I came out and figured out myself early in life. I am not in a long term relationship with my girlfriend since high school and well, 4 years now.

    • Open Anxiety

      I've had it since i was a little kid. Over time it has become so bad to the point of me missing work. I have actually had anxiety attacks so bad that i don't remember them almost is if i am sleep walking. I'm always running or trying to rum from something with a strange feeling of paranoia.

      Treatments

      Breathing Exercises Working / Worked
      If I can get myself to focus enough this does work. its pretty hit or miss for me. Half the time i forgot about it.
      Lexapro Working / Worked
      I worked for the most part, but anxiety is not my main concern and it affected other issues. Made me hyper and non-effective at work.
      Positive Thinking Not Working
      I could never think clear enough to think positive for any long amount of time.
      Xanax Working / Worked
      Amazing stuff for a sudden anxiety attack. After about 20 minutes you take a deep breath and everything is normal again. I also use this to help with insomnia. Now when i take it, it's not as affective as it used to be because of the stimulents that i take. My doseage has only gone up slightly but still works like a charm in a jam.

    • Open Video Game Addiction

      I have been playing video games since i was litteraly 18 months old. My mother is addicted to video games as well as my step father. This is how i would bond with my mother is to play video games. Now as an adult, if i don't get to play them i am irritable and a general pain in the butt. If im not on the computer i am on my Wii, if not that my DS, i will even play games on my phone. no matter what i am doing it has to have something to do with games. They havn't ruined anything yet, but will.

    • Open Tourette Syndrome & Tic Disorders

      I personally do not have TS ir tics but my girl friend does have a number of tics and rituals that she performs frequently. I didn't quite realize what it was for about the first year and a half into our relationship. She has several breathing tic's, stretches, nose/throat clearing, body grabbing, eye rolling, blinking, eye touching, shoulder shrugs. Ritutals include walking en even number of steps anywhere, if she turns she must make a full circle, everything has to be even.
