How to connect to others
I feel lonely and I'm finding it hard to connect to other people. My husband is an exception, and my son, because I can open up (to some extent) with them. More with my husband, of course, than my son. But I feel it's important that my son knows something about my mental health. He's an adult now (barely

Christmas ptsd
I had a huge physical fight with my boyfriends family christmas 2021 and I haven’t been back since and even though everything has calmed down, I’m scared something bad will happen again so I just don’t go.

Is my medicine making my symptoms worse?
After three years of cymbalta not working for me, I decided to switch medications, to which my doctor prescribed me lexapro. I started this lexapro roughly three weeks ago, and one thing I noticed was how easily triggered I am to get anxiety. I went to my doctor yesterday, and they were hesitant to increase

Trying to Figure out a couple of things
I have two questions, they're unrelated with each other. 1) Besides PTSD and Anxiety, I'm also Type 1 Diabetic, and I noticed that sometimes if I'm having a low BGL (blood sugar) sometimes I'll have an anxiety attack at the same time. I don't know why that is. I've been Type 1 for about 5 almost 6

Emptiness
I am in an anguish mindset. I am sick of my life in my home. I do chores, I do piano if though I hate it, I do my school, do my exercise, go to church repeat. I am sick of the same thing. I need to talk with someone but my mom said not to a Therapist and we can’t afford one. I am yearning someone who

Ut OH, I STOLE SOMETHING
I had a problem a long time ago. It started at Walmart. I filled my cart with rose bushes and there was nobody around to check me out. I kept asking for help and nobody would help me. I waited and waited nobody came. I got mad and took the buggy to my car and loaded the roses inside. Then I walked back

My Long RLS + PLMD Story (so far) Half of a Victory
I've dealt with RLS since I was a teenager. It grew increasingly worse as I aged. (I just turned 63). I also suspected that my legs were twitching and moving around a lot in my sleep. Eventually I learned there was a clinical name for that, too: PLMD (Periodic Limb Movement Disorder) that frequently,

Anhedonia
Anhedonia is an inability to feel positive emotions. It can be characterized by feeling of being numb or only negative emotions. It is a common symptom of many mental health disorders. One is depression. I realized that I have anhedonia when the most I could feel was numb and couldn't really feel or

RLS or something else?
Hi, I started vaping to replace a tobacco habit and got carried away with the vaping taking in far too much. Started off a light tingle in the arms initially for a few weeks but then spread to the legs where it is focused most. It happens when i am about to fall into a deep sleep. I can lie in bed

Treating TBI sleep disorders
Hi folks. I'm currently in Uni and doing research for my master's thesis relating to my TBI experience.

Intrusive thoughts

Anxiety and panic attacks
Since I was a child, I've suffered on and off from anxiety and panic attacks. In 2005 I finally saw a psychiatrist who prescribed 20mg paroxetine which I could cut in half if I felt good, then go back up to 20mg if needed. That's exactly what I did early in November. The anxiety got worse. It's now been

it's eating me alive
I'm so anxious about the future, I can't function sometimes. I live with this constant dread in my heart that I'm never going to make it and no matter how much work put into trying to get out of my current situation it will ever be enough. I never get a break from the fear, except when I'm asleep, IF
