    • Close Anxiety

      Dealing with hormone-related anxiety, brought on by the use of Yaz birth control pills. I have never had such intense anxiety before, and am trying to learn new ways of coping with it. One effective way so far is talking with others. So I am looking to meet new friends.

      Treatments

      Breathing Exercises Somewhat Helpful
      I do the 4-7-8 breathing exercise that I found on Dr. Weil's website. It seems to help a bit. Maybe I need more practice.
      Lexapro Working / Worked
      I think it's working, Lol. I'm doing more stuff by myself and eating better.
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      I don't know that there's any reason I'd ever stop trying to think positively :-)
      Xanax Working / Worked
      Weaned off of it for daily use, but I carry it around with me.
    • Close Pre-menstrual Syndrome (PMS)

      To talk with other women who have bad PMS and menstrual problems.

      Treatments

      Naproxen Somewhat Helpful
      Oral Contraceptives Not Working
      Voltaren Somewhat Helpful
      Takes away a lot of the pain but not all.
    • Open Codependency

      I have a suspicion that I may have codependent tendencies. I am still investigating this.
