New Job
Long story short, I started a new job today! I had been struggling to find work and this is in my field. I like it, the people are kind, and I am good at working in this field, but I have this awful feeling that I am not going to last at the job. The problem is my PTSD. I KNOW I will do ok (in the job

Deep-rooted anxiety
I've been grappling with what feels like an exaggerated stress response to minor triggers, leading to overwhelming anxiety and panic attacks. It's become apparent that despite my efforts in implementing various coping strategies, I haven't been able to effectively manage this heightened anxiety. At 25

LDH high
Looking back, my specialist tested my LDH at diagnosis and it was in fact elevated. He told me that it’s very common for MPN’s to cause elevated LDH levels and said with treatment we can correct them.. is that true? I was worried for a second about any organ or tissue damage, but he reassured and said

What is your experience with cannabis?
I was never much of a smoker in college and took a 36 year break from weed. As a recreational drug, it never really floated my boat. More recently, however, I have found it to be
very
effective in small quantities for anxiety, so much so that some days I will take 4 or 5 hits instead of taking

Passing by the time
I am recently divorced and suffering from severe depression and anxiety. I find little joy in the things I used to like doing, I also find that coming home to an empty house without a partner is very lonely and I’m finding I have all of this free extra time where I am so bored and don’t know what to

skipped heart beats and flutters
Does a normal echo mean my heart is healthy and structurally sound? I developed pretty severe anxiety and panic disorder back when I was 16 years old from a workout supplement I was taking causing me my first panic attack and caused my ptsd from triggering my episodes literally everyday up until I started

Treatment for diurnal mood variation/morning anxiety and depression
Has anyone been successfully treated for diurnal mood variation (morning anxiety/depression)? If so, what medicine worked for you? I have MDD, PD, and GAD and my anxiety is the worst upon awakening and during the first half of the day. I have tried several SSRIs as well as SNRIS. Now, I am on Mirtazapine

side effect from Buprenorphine and Naloxone sublingual film
I started taking Buprenorphine and Naloxone three weeks ago. Initially the RLS symptoms are pretty much relieved. Lately the same dosage I have been on which is about a little more than a quarter of the film (around 0.6-0,8 mg) not only gives me severe calf pain but also my legs still jumping all night

Set Back
After getting back on Zoloft, my anxiety was improving. I went a full week without needing Ativan. I thought things were about to get back to normal. This week, I was hit again with panic attacks and anxiety. Now I'm spiraling in fear that the Zoloft isn't working anymore and I won't have a way to handle

TSH increased but no medication change
Hi, My recent blood tests showed my TSH has increased from 1.12 to 2.4 and I haven’t changed anything. Is there a reason this would happen or does it just fluctuate? I have been eating a lot of cruciferous everyday. Would that have an impact? My FT4 has remained pretty constant.

Severe Depression, Anxiety and Heart broken
I have been battling depression and anxiety since about February of this year. I was divorced in May of 2021 after 22 years of marriage. In April of 2022 I met lady who I had been texting for 6 months. We started to date in April, moved in together in her house in October (I know way too soon). Anyway

is it normal?
my doctor is trying new meds for my depression. I’m on 450 mgs of Wellbutrin and stopped 150 mgs of Zoloft, replaced by prozac. I’m so tired. I will fall asleep anywhere right now. This is awful. It this normal when changing medication? Also I have been without the Wellbutrin for a couple days because

Midazelam
Hi I am having cataract surgery on Sunday and you are given choice of a sedative or not. The nurse said "they usually " use Midazelam -obviously anything offered if i am unsure I will go without it. Does anyone know if Midazelam is RLS safe ? Don't want legs jumping around and the surgical instruments

Moviprep & panicking
So I finally got my date today for colonoscopy this coming Wednesday. I thought they’d give me Citrafleet for the prep as my dad had one last week and that’s what he got but for some reason they gave me MoviPrep and I’m freaking out a little (a lot). I’ve read so much about this prep and it really

Hello 👋
Hi, we are all happy to have you in the group and share your insight. There is a very strong genetic component to this. My mom, brother and I all have anxiety and depression. I have been diagnosed with bipolar 2. I've tried ketamine tablets and found it effective but had to stop because it's costly.

Well it is me again
Hello again, Well yesterday was my 1st therapy appointment. I think it went well, I do like her. Not really sure what to expect out of it all still. But I am open... On that note, today at work was a very bad anxiety and depression day. I feel it is only getting worse no matter what I do or how much
