- Hello everyone! I was apart of this group a few years ago, but everything became too much to handle so i stepped away. Recently I've been really struggling to control my anxiety/depression. The physical symptoms have taken over my life :-(. I'm...
- So my mom received her test results from her CAT Scan this morning. The only information which she has given me so far is that the Chemo she was on isn't working, so she is waiting approval to try a different Chemo. This will be the 4th Chemo in...
- Last November (2009) my mom was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer, Stage 4. Wow...while I have told people that my mom has been diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer I don't think I have said Stage 4 before. I try not to think about it. For the past year I...

- If this morning is any indication to how my day is going to go then I am in big trouble. I woke up around 4am with severe anxiety. I wouldn't mind the anxiety so much if it didn't come along with chest pains because of course I think I am having a...
- One thing I have noticed recently is how exhausting both mentally and physically having stress and anxiety can be. I work hard all day to put on a smile and be productive, but once I get home and put my daughter to bed I am done for the night. I...
- My anxiety and stress levels have just risen sky high. Beside the natural increase of my anxiety on Sunday evenings due to stress at work, my daughter who had the stomach virus last week passed it on to my mom. While that might not seem like a...
- While I have felt the most relaxed with minimal symptoms the past 2 days, I am just waiting for the anxiety to be triggered again. To me it seems like a viscious cycle. I guess I should try and enjoy the moment while I am feeling good.
- Does anyone have any suggestions on how to control anxiety once it starts? I have not been able to find a good strategy which works for me. Thanks!!!
