I like shopping, but usually only when I have money to spend. :P So I enjoy it sometimes, but even things that I normally enjoy I can't seem to have a good time or bad time. I don't like concerts too...

1. I am so grateful for my boyfriend who supports me every day. It's hard for him to hear about my anxiety so sometimes it's hard to talk to him about it but when I do he tries to be as supportive as...

Sometimes I hang out with friends and do things like go shopping and stuff, but I feel like I get home and I think about the time that I spent and I don't really think that I had a good time or a bad...

Recently, I started a new job. I'm 21 (but my birthday's on Thursday!) and I took this semester off so I could just work and save up some money since I'm super poor. I have never experienced a panic...

Good advice. I'll try to keep that in mind. But, what are you saying about this job? Are you saying I shouldn't take it? I guess it's just any job in general makes me anxious. Just knowing that I...

I recently transferred to a new college campus. Before I moved I was experiencing anxiety over the summer at work. I went to the doctor and she said many people experience anxiety during big changes...

On the magnesium thread, someone mentioned that a person of my size should take no more than 270 mg of magnesium I think. I'm pretty small. 5 feet, 105 lbs. Also I'm taking magnesium taurate. As for...

Every morning, ever since my anxiety started (2 months ago), I wake up so nervous. I don't feel nauseous, but I feel my heart beating a little fast and harder and I get butterflies too. I get up and...

Thanks prouddad. I actually read that thread and I have been taking tge magnesium. I stopped taking it though because sometimes it made me feel a bit depressed. Not sure why, but I have started again...

I've heard so many mixed things about B vitamins. I've heard that the B complex vitamins can actually increase anxiety, but the B12 vitamin by itself is helpful for anxiety.

Also, I'm taking...

Thanks Ankhsious. It's a bit discouraging to think that maybe the anxiety was in me all along because I like to think that once I get used to my new life and new school, I'll start to feel better. I...

I think the purpose of my anxiety that I've recently started to experience is that I need to learn how to be independent, how to enjoy being alone even with no friends around. I've been dependent on...

I realized my anxiety started at work over the summer whenever I had a shift where I had to work by myself. I was afraid of being alone for some reason...maybe in case something happened to me? In...

Has anyone suffered from temporary anxiety and/or depression? I'm pretty sure my depression is temporary as it has been getting better. I recently moved in with a new roommate for school so I moved...

Thanks. I guess I think too much about the future and sometimes I can't live in the moment. I feel especially depressed and lack of motivation when I'm tired so maybe I just need to sleep it off or...

Thanks RavenM. Always there to help me out! haha

I visited my doctor and she said my anxiety is due to big life changes happening. I'm moving out of my parents house, starting at a new school, etc. So hopefully my anxiety is only temporary. Also,...

Does anyone suffer from either of these? I guess I don't suffer from it too seriously, but I was/am experiencing a lot of anxiety due to large changes happening in my life. I'm moving, starting at a...

I'm looking for answers as to whether or not I'm depressed. A few weeks ago, I felt anxious about work (I have experienced mild anxiety in high school, but never a full-blown panic attack) and...

Once I took the magnesium, I felt no more pressure on my chest and my heart felt better too. But, now I feel depressed a bit. Maybe it's because I need to keep taking the magnesium on a daily basis....

This is a really good list. Sometimes, when I'm experiencing anxiety and I'm feeling anti-social, I just sleep and when I wake up I feel more in the mood to do things. Also, having an escape plan. I...

I first posted this in General Discussion, but I didn't know there was a depression forum and I can't find out how to delete my other one, but I figured I'd probably get more help/responses here.
...

Yeah, after I got up and took the dog out, my heart stopped racing, but I still feel the pressure on my chest. If it continues should I get it checked out? I don't feel like it's too serious right...

I first experienced anxiety 5 years ago. Then, for a looong time I didn't experience it at all. I would only experience it when I went to the dentist because that's what originally triggered it. I...

So I got the magnesium in the mail and they are 125 mg capsules. I started taking them and felt better almost immediately and didn't even have to take one the next day. I took it only when I felt...
