HELLO

[STRSDGRL07]

I just wanted to say hello to everyone here on the forum. I have been struggling with anxiety/depression for the past 8 years or so of my life & at times it can be extremely difficult to deal with. Other times, I am completely fine. SSRI's don't work for me. They actually create more panic. Right now I take Klonopin at a very low dose twice a day. Breathing techniques don't work for me either, as I am unable to ever relax enought to do something like that. I was wondering how everyone here on the forum deals with their anxiety? Mine is worse in social situations, too. I actually avoid places as much as I can & can really only feel comfortable going places if I have my fiance with me. I wish there were a miracle drug to cure this! I'm currently not working. I started a business that I had to drop out of because of my anxiety and anger outbursts. Anyone else in a similar situation?

Until recently, I suffered for 7 years & was at my wits end. I was fed up with just controlling my anxiety, I wanted to get rid of it. And I did, completely. I can't post URLs on this site, so you can PM me, and I'll give you the info, or type in 'anxiety cured' or 'cure for anxiety' on a search engine.

It's a long story (my anxiety & how I managed to get rid of it). I think these anger outbursts are probably because of irritability, which is maybe the worst symptom of anxiety I had, that with paranoia and feelings of doom & gloom.
