Hello

[knownonsense]

I have been diag. with ocd, ptsd, depression, anxiety and now panic disorder! I have got to change, I want my life back! I have been disabled for 7 years because of medical problems. I've tried ssri's but the side effects just made things worse. Klonopin seems to help, I just don't want to take it all the time and build a tolerance to it. I was in cbt, had to stop because I could no longer afford it. HELP!!!!!!!!!!

I dont know what I would do without CBT! It is saving my life! Maybe you can research more on the therapies and exposure exercises and try to do them on your own, and use what you already learned from therapy. That's how I am; don't want to be on meds forever! I haven't been on meds so far, but sometimes, it gets so bad, I wish I were, but in the long, I know I will be better off without. *sigh* I have GAD with panic and "a touch" of OCD.
