    • About Me

      I've known I was bisexual for about 3 years now, but I've only recently told my close friends and family. I've had panic attacks and general anxiety with bouts of agoraphobia ever since I can remember. I'm a complete bibliophile; I tend to be more of an introvert than extrovert; I use gargantuan words in everyday conversation; I have little faith in humanity; I'm an eternal optimist towards others with a pessimistic outlook on my own life; I hate idiocy and hypocrites; I love my family and friends; I'm an atheist; I don't stereotype myself or others; I like the way I look; I have an enormous amount of self-confidence; I tell the truth in all situations, whether the outcome is good or bad.

      I've had a crush on the same girl (who also happens to be my best friend) for about 2 years now.  In fact, she was the one who made me …

    • Close Gay & Lesbian Teens

      Alright, I'm Bee. I've known I was bisexual for about 3 years now, but I only recently came out to my close friends and family. I'm joining this group to help others who are afraid to come out and to get answers to some of my questions.

    • Close Panic Attacks

      I'm 17 years old, and I've had anxiety and panic attacks for as long as I can remember. I've tried medicines, which just made it worse, and sometimes it gets so bad that agoraphobia kicks in. I want help, and to talk to people who are going through the same things as me. I want to know I'm not crazy.

      Treatments

      Celexa Not Working
      I took Celexa for a grand total of three days during which I was dizzy disoriented nauseous and miserable. On the third day I had a run of panic attacks that were stronger than any Id had before. I stopped taking it immediately and after a week or so all the side effects disappeared.
      Patience Somewhat Helpful
      Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It depends on the situation... The severity, the location, etc.
      Positive Thinking Somewhat Helpful
      Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't, just like waiting it out. It's really hard for me to focus on positive thoughts while I'm experiencing anxiety.
      Psychotherapy Not Working
      Counseling never helped me in the slightest; all my counselor seemed to want to do was make me cry by the way she worded her questions. I don't know if that's because of something inside of me, or because of her technique.
      Xanax Somewhat Helpful
      I took it a few times, but I stopped taking it soon after I started because I feared I would be completely dependent on it, and I don't want to have to be popping pills just to deal with everyday life.
    • Open Agoraphobia & Social Anxiety

      I have a panic disorder, and recently it's gotten so bad that agoraphobia has set in to the point where I'm afraid to leave my house. I'm trapped, and my parents are angry at me, and I need to finish high school, and I feel so trapped right now. I need help, but I feel like I can't go get any.
