Raised cholesterol
I have been advised to take cholesterol medication by nhs endocrinologist. He did genetic testing for familial hyperlipidemia, which was negative, but had an anomaly. I was given Atorvastatin which I haven’t tried as it seems to be one that has worse side effects for patients with thyroid disease.

Need advice about my son who seems to be mis-diagnosed
My son is 21 and is a twin. He started having severe anxiety about going to school when he was in 5th grade. We struggled to get him to school for years and took him to a child psychiatrist, day tx program and several counselors. He was diagnosed with social anxiety and OCD. We tried several medications

Struggling a bit
Hi, I was diagnosed in July with 1C Mucinous OC with a few clear cells also found. It was a bit of a shock diagnosis (for consultant as well) as after bloods and MRI etc, nothing appeared sinister. The original affected ovary was only found by chance (random unrelated question to GP and no symptoms

Working on getting a diagnosis
I'm 37 and just finished reading "The ADHD effect on Marriage," it punched me in the gut. I have been "working towards" (not really) getting help for a while - but reading this book hit me so hard. My first marriage failed and I started to notice that similar behaviors and issues were coming up again

Why are fathers so closed off?
Any children of prostate cancer patients here? Anyone else struggle with their dad not being as open about how they’re feeling? My dad is very closed off, doesn’t believe in all the “therapy and counselling bullshit”, but also seems to want me to be his therapist and confidant. I’m feeling so drained

Is there a Bright Side to Mental Health and Kidney Disease/Failure? Asks the Queen
The other day was National Mental Health day and I thought a lot about my own experiences with bipolar disorder. I read a fact by NAMI that said 75% of mental health issues begin at 24. I was 23-24 when I had my first experience with bipolar disorder. Why am I saying all of this on a website dedicated

Hi! 👋🏼 I just had my first counselling session via zoom this morning . I wasn’t that impressed tbh.

We didn’t make it through the full hour, lasted about 40mins with
