Anyone suffering from eye contact anxiety?
I have been diagnosed with severe anxiety and
clinical
depression
. Sometimes when I get stressed and anxious I feel very uncomfortable maintaining eye contact while engaging in conversation. So I try to avert my gaze away from the persons face. But they often misunderstand and get annoyed at me.

Feeling sad
"Hello everyone, I am a new member of this group. I have been feeling depressed for almost a year now. I got divorced in August 2023 and soon after that, menopause hit me hard. Currently, I am working in a surgical office while also studying to become a social worker, as it helps me keep my mind occupied

People pleaser.
Most of my life I’ve been a people pleaser in one way or another. I’ve tried to stop but can’t, I’m constantly on the lookout for praise, approval and admiration. I’ve had various counselling sessions over the years for depression and anxiety. Through this help I’ve found the reasons I people pleasure

988 wasn't helpful
I tried 988 again even though I knew how it would go. She kept asking questions I had already given her the answers to. It felt like she was stalling the whole time with lines of questioning that led nowhere. We finally got to the coping skill part and she was suggesting things that everyone suggests

feeling trapped again
Last week was very overwhelming and I still haven't processed everything that I experienced. Some good came out of it and even that's upsetting. Suddenly people in my close family have changed for the better and are trying to get to a point where they can support me. But it feels like it's way too late

Hello. I have had depression and anxiety most of my adult life. I currently take medicine and had it under control. Then four weeks ago we had to put our dog of 13 years done. She was a part of the family and sat on my lap every night. Since then I have had crying spells, waking up in morning with

Citalopram to Mirtazapine
I wanted to provide an update on my experience with the 15mg dosage of mirtazapine. Initially, during the first week of taking it, I felt remarkably calm, capable of managing stressful situations effectively, and experienced improved productivity. Additionally, my sleep quality notably improved. I felt

Feeling depressed, wish me luck
It's been a while since I've posted. Things were going great and suddenly they're not. I've tried a new form of medication and it's brought back the impending doom that follows along with depression. I've been crying off-on for 2 weeks now. I'm so sad and I don't even know why. I want to be better

Neurology
Hi everyone, I finally have my appointment with neurology 16th May .My gp is taking me off pregabalin and advising amitryptaline (excuse the spelling) I explained this was also used as an antidepressant so would aggravate my symptoms, he then got quite angry and said well there's nothing else you can

Discomfort after pooing
hello I’ve had IBS for as long as I can remember. Definitely linked to anxiety. I have severe outbreaks and have taken antidepressants for years and will always do so. I’ve been meditating daily for a few years and wish I had started years ago. I’ve also done a course of online hypnotherapy specifically

I'm a mess
I suffered emotional trauma recently and I am having severe anxiety and depression. I am being treated with medication and therapy but I need someone to talk to. When its gets real bad I call the crisis line but they only try to keep you alive. [u]
If there is anyone who can talk, please respond

Generalized anxiety depression
I am diagnosed with GAD, its not that I am having this everyday; if somethings triggered me then its like a rocket and suddenly it show up. The worst part is that I feel so lonely, cannot breath, cant control my tears and even my anger. What I did normally on my case if this things happened, I used to
