Hello everyone! I have major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety, and social phobia. I’ve been going to therapy on and off since I was 8 years old. I was recently in a behavioral hospital and now in an outpatient program. I was also diagnosed with ADHD when I was 27, but the behavioral hospital and the outpatient program, took me off my medication for that. Things are a lot better then they were, but there are still struggles every day. I’m looking for a full time job again, which makes me super anxious. I am also having trouble with focusing and I am always shaking my legs or rocking back and forth. I am still having trouble with motivation. I think of things that I want to do, but I never get up to do them. It all gets really frustrating sometimes, but I know it will eventually get better for me as long as I keep working on myself.
Hello! I’m new! : Hello everyone! I... - Anxiety and Depre...
Hello! I’m new!
Hi I also suffer from some of your conditions as well, I'm looking to learn from others. I have been struggling with my mental illness lately and looking to vent and see what other people are going thru and how they pull themselves out of the funk. Idk the Dr just changed upped my med for mental illness.
I’m here for that too. In the programs we do a lot of group therapy and it is so helpful. You begin to realize that you are not alone in feeling the way you do! This is like an online group therapy. I’m interested in seeing how others cope and sharing what I have learned as well.
I've tried group therapy I didn't like it I even tried group therapy to quit smoking neither worked but I did get a little relief from the therapy for mental illness I just felt one person hugged up all the time. I feel more comfortable and it's easier to reach people for me and see what other people are going thru so I m not alone. Today is my first day here and I'm really liking it so far. I t took years for me to find a support group like this so frustrating to be dealing with mental illness with no support and the counselors either piss me off or they just listen no real cbt

Hello, welcome. Also that's really hard. I'm personally really worried about getting a job because i'm also getting overwhelmed, overload, anxious, rocking back and forth and leg always bouncing. Bad we don't have good docs here so i wasn't diagnozed with adhd yet nor have been put in programs or a hospital after i lost my mind in 2020 because of dad. And adulting seems impossible. Also great name. Is it a referense to Yungblud? He also has adhd
