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

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

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

Intrusive thoughts
Hi I’m so sorry to hear about the intrusive thoughts that you have been going through .I also have experienced them since being diagnosed with PP last year.What I found helpful is someone’s comment to imagine physically putting them on a cloud and floating away.Also remembering that everyone gets intrusive

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

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

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

Hallucinations and depression.
I'm having a awful year as far as suicide attempts, and hallucinations. My doctor started me in a different antidepressant, and it's made my mind alot worse than ever before. I think my suicidal thoughts have become worse instead of better. The doctors office is closed the next 3 days.

ECT for Bipolar Disorder
I’m new here so please be kind. I was diagnosed with Bipolar 1 about two months ago and I’m starting to think Lamotrigine is not enough. Has anyone ever tried electro-convulsive therapy? During a stint in a psych ward I saw this treatment help others but I’m honestly afraid of it.

I am unhappy with myself for putting off things I know I should be doing. Like organizing my stuff and studying. I think its my adhd which is getting things like this.

Newbie, hi
I'm 60. I was diagnosed 1 month ago with RLS. I've had symptoms since I was about 13 years old. I'm taking Pregabalin and have just moved onto my clinical dose. I'm not enjoying the side effects but hope they will pass. My life has been one of dealing with excessive daytime sleepiness, mental health

Weaning off Prednisolone after miscarriage
Hi Ladies, Sorry for another question, but I have been on 20mg of Steroids for 6/7 weeks since my transfer. Sadly my pregnancy ended in a mmc and I have been advised to wean myself off the steroids. The clinic haven't been too clear about what that means. I was taking 4 5mg tablets per day, and just

Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Has anyone been diagnosed with GAD? My 1st diagnosis was in 2016 and I suffered and anxiety episode for about 2 months. It scared the crap out of me because I was not sure what was happening to me. I was placed on Lexapro and it helped. I had another episode in 2020 when COVID hit, it was not as bad

Yes, I agree, ADHD needs a new name!!!
I think it can be rather negative and traumatizing to stick these labels on kids at such a young age. Just because some kid is having some trouble paying attention in class, well then they get labeled as having some kind of disorder and then they’re probably thinking Why is something wrong with
