SENDING YOU SOME SUNSHINE. I AM DOING GOOD. HOWS THINGS WITH YOU
Hug
Hi sweetie, I haven't heard from you in a while and hope that all is well with you. Things re ok here. I just found out that I have little tumors in my nose and will find out Tu what they are going to do about it. My bird laid 2eggs the other day and I freaked out. I don't know how to take care of one baby bird let alone two of them. I then found out that they can lay sterile eggs and just to take them away from her in a few days. I don't know how I;m going to do that since she keeps stting on them hoping to be a mom. How sad. Anyway, I hope everything is going ok for you and I hope to hear from you. Take care, Michelle

Support Groups
Close Panic Attacks
I have a fear of natural disasters (mainly tornadoes). My fear stemmed from my mother's reaction to thunderstorms. When I was a child, my mother would hide us under furniture during windstorms. I learned to be fearful of high winds. I am still having trouble dealing with storms and my husband is not supportive. He doesn't think with much depth. Anyway, I have relied on medication on and off for over 20 years.
Treatments
- Xanax Working / Worked
- I only need a small amount of Xanax(5mg or less) to help me with panic attacks. Sometimes if I medicate for about 2-3 weeks, I can regain control for months.
Close Phobia
I suffer from lilapsophobia(fear of tornadoes). I have never been in one, but still have an extreme fear. My mother would hide us under the furniture during bad wind storms. I was never that concerned until then. I think I was maybe in fifth grade when storms started to bother me.
Treatments
- Acceptance Not Working
- I calm down after treatment with medication and then I can accept things better, but stress exacerbated the phobia and it returns full force.
- Xanax Somewhat Helpful
- Sometimes I can get a handle on the problem and feel better for a year of more after xanax therapy, but then extreme stress usually sets me back.
Open Menopause
Hi, I started having really bad attacks during menopause. Now I have gone thru menopause and the attacks still come. Xanax seemd to take the edge off and help me get control, but it made me very drowsy. Also experienced a loss of sex drive.
Treatments
- Xanax Somewhat Helpful
- Xanax made me drowsy at first, got better later. Helped take the edge of panic attacks,but still had occasional "breakthru" panic.
Open Female Sexual Issues
I have been married for a lot of years. Within the last year and a half I have lost any urge for sex. I still do my wifely duty, but I get absolutely nothing out of it. I suffer from anxiety and depression too. It is not something anybody would choose (I would rather be enjoying intimacy again)but unfortunately it happens to some of us. My husband does not really understand, but he is still with me as I was with him during his illnesses. However,a little more support would help.
Treatments
- Xanax Somewhat Helpful
- I felt more relaxed and was not as depressed. Was able to enjoy life more. Sex life improved a little. Was more enthusiastic about decorating and other interests.
Open Gambling Addiction & Recovery
I have been hooked on gambling for maybe 15 years. We filed bankruptcy twice and forclosed a house.
Treatments
- Self-help Working / Worked
- My husband offers me gambling money, then complains when I go on a binge. He doesn't understand and thinks I can control it. I compare it to his beer habit,doesn't work.

I was diagnosed with a benign arrhythmia(pac's).
Open Shingles
