      Mum of 3, love to do anything crafty when I get a chance. I also have 2 dogs which get me out of the house daily for a nice long bushwalk.

    • Close Anxiety

      As far as I can remember there's been anxiety or depression in my life. For the past 15months I've been really ill and the pdocs still haven't found the right treatment for me. Before that I had years at a time when I was "normal" and would just love to get back there. I think it's so hard being a mum because I 'm so sick of my kids having to see me ill and in hospital. I know they just want their happy mum back again.

      Treatments

      Breathwork Somewhat Helpful
      I do a 3 second breath through the nose and a 5 second relax breath out through my mouth. It really depends on catching the anxiety early for the breathing to help.
      Klonopin Considering
      Great at first but now I'm not sure if it's making my symptoms worse. Withdrawaing is the hardest drug I've come across and am trying for the 3rd time now.
      Remeron Considering
      I started the Zyprexa less then a month ago so still waiting to see how it will work with the avanza. Klonopin I'm starting another withdrawal from.
    • Close Panic Attacks

      I've had anxiety and depression most of my life. I've also suffered panic attacks the worse being the ones with depersonalisation.

      Treatments

      Effexor Not Working
      Didn't help me.
      Klonopin Considering
      It worked but after 8 months my body is physically addicted and the drug has stopped working at it's full effect.
      Zoloft Working / Worked
      This was my wonder drug until I became tolerant to it. All I needed was my zoloft and nothing else.
      Zyprexa Working / Worked
      The avanza works to a certain point but I have been placed on Zyprexa to control run-away thoughs and stabilise my moods.
    • Open Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Depession and Anxiety have haunted me all my life. At the moment untreatable.

      Treatments

      Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      You have to be reasonally well to use this.
