Every morning I wake up and say,"Damn". I curse the fact that I didn't die during the night and have to face yet another …

About Me
Hey everyone, I am a college student studying to be a computer engineer. I already go to therapy for other issues in my life, but I've been recently thinking that I might have a problem with sex addiction. Trying to get help with that since it is starting to affect alot of my life. My passion is with computers, but sex has taken a front seat. Just looking for a lil help and guidance from ppl with a simalar problem. I also have alot of medical and psycological problems that I deal with on a daily basis. Figured I can get support from ppl with some of the same problems that I have.

Close Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
I was diagnosed with CAH when I was 14. They didn't catch it right away because I'm not the salt-wasting type. I just got really sick one day and they found it. The only problem that I experience is that I get really sick when I'm off meds. I don't like taking the meds cuz I feel like it is taking away my manhood, by suppressing my testasterone. I feel like I'm still going thru puberty, even thou I'm 28.
Close College Stress
I am a 28 yr old man that just started to go back to school. I'm almost finished with my first year, but find that I really stress myself out over grades and my progress. I'm a perfectionist so that doesn't help. I always try to do my best, but beat myself up when I feel that I could've done better. The stress is really getting to me now and I find myself to be unfocused and starting not to care. Don't want to quit, but sure do feel like it sometimes.
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- I have been going to therapy for other issues, but my therapist helps with managing some of the stress.
- Sleep Working / Worked
- I think I sleep a lil too much. It helps a lil but I think I'm sleeping more to escape.
Open Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI was diagnosed with depression when I had my first suicide attempt at 14. I've been fighting this disease ever since. Its not easy but I've learned to take it a day at a time. I have my good days and bad, but try not to focus so much on the bad. I have definately come a long way since I was 14. Haven't been suicidal in a couple of years...knock on wood. Hope to keep it that way.
Treatments
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Working / Worked
- I go to therapy on a regular basis and I feel that CBT has been helping.
- Cymbalta Working / Worked
- This med is a life saver. I've tried all the other anti-depressants, and this is the only one that has made a difference.
- Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful
- I've been thru dozens of psycotherapists. Some tried to help, but I feel that CBT works better for me.
- Lamictal Working / Worked
- It helps me focus at the tasks at hand instead of thinking about depressing things all the time. Im able to focus better and do things much easier.
Open Hypothyroidism
I already was seeing an endocrinologist for CAH. I was constantly complaining about feeling very tired and fatigued. My doctor did some tests and found out that I also had hypothyriodism. The only symptoms I experience is fatigue and low energy.
Treatments
- Synthroid Somewhat Helpful
- I can't really tell. I'm still fatigued and have low energy, but my weight has become level.
Open Kidney Stones
I have had 3 episodes of kidney stones in the past 5 yrs. Changing my diet has not worked. I have changed it everytime I've had an episode, but nothing seems to work. My PCP has refered me to a nephrologist, since going to a urologist didn't do anything.
Open Migraine Headaches
I have had migraines since I was little. Once when I was 16 I had a migraine for a staight month. I would go to sleep with a migraine and wake up with one. Most meds I've tried do not work. I've just learned to deal with them. Sometimes I can't do my regular activities, but I just try my best to relax, take some excedrin migraine, and take a nap. Thats all I can do.
Treatments
- Excedrin Working / Worked
- Excedrin migraine is the only thing that seems to help along with a nap in a dark room, trying not to move.
Open Sex / Pornography Addiction
I've been thinking that I might be addicted to sex, porn, masterbation, and I am sexually sadistic, which definately doesn't help. I thought it was just the abundance of testaterone in my body, but now it is affecting my every day life.
Open Transgender
I have just started my transition process...I guess. I say that cuz I've been living as a man for years, but don't have the cash to take hormones or get the surgeries I need. I just recently came out to my family and friends and got mixed feeling about it.
