How are you being treated at work? What are your colleagues and/or boss doing? There are laws about unfair treatment at work, discrimination, equality and so on. You could look into these. Also you...

Just a message to say stay safe to all our members who are on the East Coast of America x

Well done! You've proven to yourself that you can cope with a flight even in the scariest of circumstances!

Are they aware of your partners earnings? The both of you should be able to put joint claimes in for council tax benefit, housing benefit (if appropriate) etc. I think you should get in touch with...

There is no reason whatsoever why your current anxiety would cause psychosis or turn into schizophrenia. It is normal to be scared and worried about things when you are anxious. You just have to...

I found propranolol to be really helpful. I started on 80mg slow release tabs daily and am now on 10mg daily and that seems to keep the racing heart, feelings of being on edge etc away. It might be...

Welcome to the forum Steve.
You'll find lots of people on the same boat here who will be able to support and help you. What meds are you on and how long have you been on them? You in any form of...

You won't be the first and certainly won't be the last to drink on SSRI's. When I first started mine I felt I got drunk quicker. After being on SSRI's my tolerance increased. But now I tend not to...

easy tiger, lol. Was just wondering if you were to get one on your doctor's request or if you wanted one just to check things for yourself. In my experience doing it just to check for yourself can...

Loving your post Camilla! I also think that anxiety is a selfish condition and over the years I have started to stick two fingers up at it and tell it to F$*K off!

Why do you want one?

Lol, i am known as a fidget to my colleagues but they seem to accept it. I found that when I am in situations when it really is not appropriate to fidget (like job interview) i will move around in...

I get a bit like this as well. Best advice I can give is don't sit still then. If it makes you uncomfotable to stay in the same position and you feel dizzy then there is no need to stay frozen to...

I do find that if I am in a hightened state of anxiety then herbal remedies do nothing for me. But if I'm just a bit stressed they do help especially bach's rescue remedy and that sleepy time tea...

Marrymoo have you seen a counsellor or therapist of some sort? Often people need extra support from a professional to start working through and figuring out their anxiety.

I used to have symptoms like this and it turned out to be an inner ear problem called labyrinthitis and was nothing to do with anxiety.

I think cutting out the dope would be a great start.

It depends on what you read and what info you are getting. For me, education was a key part in the recovery process. Knowing all about the fight/flight response and the reasons behind all my...

having an eye twitch is really common if you are tired or stressed. Nothing to worry about.

Incredibly poignant, moving and inspiring video! You are very brave for telling your story and hopefully others will see this and realise that there is hope. Thanks for sharing.

When I have trouble sleeping I take over the counter meds like nytol (not the herbal one as it does nothing for me). I am lucky though as it helps me fall asleep and I feel fine the next day but I...

What dose are you on? It's usually best to start low and increase over time. Unfortunately it will make you feel pretty crap for a couple of weeks and it can be a good month or 2 before you start to...

there are risks with every operation but as ops go it isn't a huge risk- it's a fairly simple and quick procedure. The issues are mainly with the general anaesthetic and how you will react to it....

In my opinion SSRI's have much more side effects and are much more difficult to come off than beta blockers. I promise you I had no side effects when I started or when I reduced them- all was done...

I think your sinus problems are unrelated to anxiety. People just get sinusitis with or without anxiety. Have you been to your doctor about it? Sometimes a does of antibiotics is needed to really...
