Hi all. I hope you all are doing OK. I come here only rarely these days, but thought I would stop by and say hello & I hope you all are doing well. I have some good memories of this forum (as...
I have not been here in some time, but just thought I would stop in to wish you all well as we deal with the (nearly) unprecedented coronavirus situation. It is certainly a challenge for those of us...
I agree with you Mike. I think I make this mistake. Your advice is wise.
I took .25 mg or .5 mg. If I felt like I was going to have a panic attack I would take it again or maybe Xanax. Benzodiazepines have potential problems but they sure do work!
Clonazepam works well at least for me. But I won’t take it often because I’m concerned about dependence. So I save it for desperate times.
Mike you must have liked the Patriots result. Total obliteration.
I go out and walk or run most days. Sometimes I don’t feel like it, but I think it helps with the anxiety.
I guess the ads must pay something. But if not many people use the forum, then I assume the advertisers wouldn’t pay much. But who knows. I’m not even sure who owns this forum. I have mostly...
You might want to check out the insight timer app. It has a ton of free meditations. Also nature sounds recordings and other stuff. Also has various forums including an anxiety one and a mental...
The insight timer app has a mental health forum and an anxiety forum. They’re both pretty good. Very supportive crowd and no acrimony.
Have you tried the healingwell anxiety forum? That’s a bit more active than this one and I doubt it will disappear.
I’m somewhat surprised that whoever owns this forum continues to leave it up, given the sparse use. Nice of them, though.
I was just thinking about some of the people who used to populate this forum but are no longer here, and wondering about them. Remember Enduroman? Maybe I have his name wrong but something like...
Very tough summer for me. High anxiety throughout. I’m taking Zoloft and doing therapy but still the anxiety persists. By most standards, I have everything — a nice wife, happy and successful...
Hello all. I hope you’re all well. I’m struggling a bit with anxiety but doing my best to live a normal life.
Dahila, I noticed that. But it seems pretty much everyone just ignores the request. I have been participating a fair amount there. It has good people and is quite active, pretty much any time of...
This forum has obviously become very slow, with little participation. That is too bad, but it is a fact. So what are the other good, more active places to discuss anxiety issues? One is the...
What is it that would cause involuntary hospitalization? I thought that was limited to situations where you were deemed a danger to yourself (suicide threat) or a danger to others. Is that right?
I recall days when I had my act totally together, mentally. I was carefree and living a great life. I miss those days. I don't spend time asking "what went wrong"? I could never figure that out...
I often have the same reaction. I force myself to get up, do some exercise, and go to work -- because I know that is good for me, instead of lying around. But sometimes it is VERY hard.
Maybe...
I managed to get a decent night's sleep.
I have participated in healthful chat, the board referenced above. There are good things about it Active participation and pretty friendly. Also geographic and age diversity. But it tends to be...
Thank you for the kind words, Dahila!
I have friends who I enjoy spending time with, including some long-time friends from when I was 8 years old. (I am in my 50s now). And I enjoy being social,...
I like people. But I keep most relationships, even with long time friends, pretty superficial. I don't tend to reveal my inner thoughts to them. The closest I come is with my wife. I guess that...
I’m married with kids. But still the anxiety makes me lonely. It’s an isolating experience bc nobody understands unless they experienced it
Thanks Salvator!
Dahlia - I did try CBD. Helped me a little but I’m nervous about mixing it with the SSRI bc CBD can apparently interfere with absorption in the liver of the SSRI. So I m holding...
