Hi, I don’t really know you well because I’m newer here, but I’ve seen a few of your posts here.

I just wanted to tell you that you’re the hero of this story. It’s your ability to open up and share with others what you’re going through, rather than shutting down and hiding away, that is the greatest aid to you. Wouldn’t the world be a better place if everyone were as honest and open, if everyone asked for help and gave help.

Anxiety wants us to shut down and be alone, you keep fighting the good fight!

Bless you thank you, I try, I just hope I don’t go on too much but that’s what we’re here for and it really does help xx

I think this is a judgement free place. I think people here know the pain and want to help others.

Just remember that people care and if you need to open up, people want you to. I can see you’re well loved here, and I’m pretty sure you deserve it!

Have a great evening and think of all the battles you fought and won today!

Hi Sam.

I have had derealization as well, it was what I was calling feeling out of myself. In my case I had it more often before going onto antidepressants but I also had it less often but more severely after. In my case it stopped happening very quickly. It only happened a couple of times at the very beginning of taking medication and then never returned.

Hopefully it will be the same for you.

All the best

Kim

Ok, well I’ve only been on them 4 weeks and as you know they upped the dose after 2 weeks so I’m still trying to get used to them.

Thanks Kim xx

I think just knowing others are in similar place and understand helps

[Laniben in reply to sajax]

Yes its does.

Since earlier ive had a couple more big adrenaline surges go right through me, i did go for a walk but had to come back again, I thought I was going to pass out, anxiety is just the worst thing when it throws everything at you all at once. I think I need to go upstairs and relax on the bed and watch tv there , I cant seem to do it downstairs. What a saturday evening ☹️

Your welcome, the same for me, this is a place I can vent and get advice without being judged cause we're All in the same Boat

[fib4]

there is no judgement here. we all basically have the same issues and it helps to talk them out. so if you feel like venting or just putting your feelings out there feel free we are good listeners cause we've all been there and some still are

God I understand. It’s so hard to explain to others who don’t have it.
