Np! And I was telling someone else on here before about this, but when I needed a therapist and didn't have insurance, I was able to ask a few if they could help. The one I currently go to gives me a...

Welcome! Are you supposed to be taking the diazepam regularly or as needed? I used to have it prescribed as needed and taking it like that made me feel uneven and almost worse. Those meds are too...
Therapy helps so much- finding a good therapist is key, but once you do, it's like talking to an (very smart) old friend. Their job is not to tell you what to do but help you to work out your own way...
Ok, I'm curious. I can only find responses to a thread if I go back to my profile and see what I've responded to, click the link and then scroll down. Is there a better way to know if someone has...
Sorry to hear that the Vicks didn't help anything. Just knew of a friend who said it did for him. If talking to someone else seems to help, on the phone or online, stay on here! There's always...

Adele has the same issue. Read the article from the link I posted above- it's really interesting. My favorite...
I used to have the same thing. My fear was getting sick/passing out in the shower. Then, I really thought- why, in the name of bob saget, was I getting scared of showering? What am I really afraid is...

Well, I don't have children myself but I can understand how tough that must be to manage a home and try to cope. Sure, people go to work and shop and do things everyday that aren't a challenge for...
The infamous red face- you're speaking my language, girl. I have very fair skin and when I am embarrassed, my face will go a fair share of magenta. I'm not even kidding. And when people start to...
Since it's breathing that's bugging you, I've heard friends use something like Vick's VapoRub or something with menthol in it. That opens up your airways and will give you a nice cooling sensation...
I think you're right on the money there with the vivid imagination. And I'm jumping on Calii's bandwagon here- paint, write, draw, make youtube vids- find some way to channel your creative energy...
I took medical leave when my anxiety was pretty bad and ended up losing my job- well, they "covered" my shifts and "didn't need any help at the moment" when I was ready to return. It was hard to...
Yes. Eventually that fog clears away, but it takes time. Just know that in the meantime, it's a normal way of your brain protecting you from all the stress that anxiety can cause.
Oh, you are so normal, it's not even funny. So many of us have suffered with shortness of breath, dizziness, upset stomach, the list goes on. All totally normal. I get the part about not being able...
Definitely talk to your doc about this- 6 months is a long time to not be feeling anything other than that spacey feeling.
At some point you also have to question whether you were better off...
dazza, I think you've got something there. I nanny'd full-time for years (different than parenting, yes yes I know), but you crave the adult attention/conversation and when you don't get it, the...
I wonder if doing the worm would be a good natural remedy. I'm definitely doing it the next time I feel antsy. :)
Hahaha, glad to know I'm not the only one who sends love messages to strangers.. or parents. ;)
I had this for a long time and only until recently did I found a solution (that worked for me). About a year ago, I was on Prozac (10 mg every other day) and I woke up one night with this awful neck...
Clumsy with words, yes. I remember when I had such bad anxiety and I was so flustered with talking to my mom and answering the phone at the same time that I said "Hello!" to my mom and "I love you?"...
Are you on any medications or do you just not feel like yourself when you feel this?
Know why they tell race car drivers not to focus on hitting the wall? Because if they do, that's right where their car is headed.
See your semester as the same thing. Stay focused on the...
It sounds like you're being really proactive. The cortisol levels accumulate from your stress and the lower testosterone is typical in males of your age group.
You'll need to find some way to...
I'd say you're good to be checking in with the psych next week. Once you find the right medications, they can often take 3-4 weeks (sometimes longer) to take full effect and give relief. In the...
