Caffeine Advice
Hi everyone! I suffer with depressive episodes and generalised anxiety disorder. I had a bad episode last September and I made some lifestyle changes which included completely cutting out alcohol and also caffeinated coffee (I still consume caffeine if it is in something like coke zero for example).

PTSD from chronic illness?
Hello lovely people, I’ve been reading recently about the trauma resulting from living with chronic illness. It seems there is a growing body of research acknowledging the traumatic effects of living with a threat that resides in your own body (something they’re calling Enduring Somatic Threat). I

Question
Besides having PTSD and anxiety, I'm also Type 1 Diabetic. I'm on the fence about getting a service dog. I think one would help a lot not only with my PTSD/anxiety, but also my Type 1 Diabetes, since its uncontrolled. Part of me wants to get one because I think it would really help in my everyday life

Residential treatment center and Prozac
Tuesday, I'm supposed to go to a residential treatment center. I started prozac two days ago. I've had chest pains since yesterday morning, so for today he lowered my dose. Still have them. Other side effects I have are more common; Anxiety, Emotional paralysis, like inertia, I just can't do anything

Prozac and chest pains
Has anyone gotten chest pains as a side effect to taking prozac. I started it today and my chest is killing me. I've taken literally everything else, hospitalization, ECT, TMS and ketamine. It's my last hope. I need it to work. I've been very suicidal and bad Anxiety. Can anyone help please, I'm desperate

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

I'd love to hear success stories about taking Buspirone for anxiety
I have had different degrees of anxiety my whole life. This has ranged from constant worry to full blown panic attacks for days on end. I was prescribed Celexa some years ago and didn't do well on it. I've tried to live my life the best I could while dealing with this disorder. Recently I had a major

Cannot be bothered syndrome!
Hi, Having reduced my pred dose from 20mg, i have been on 7mg for 3 weeks. I had some initial tiredness and sugar craving. That seemed to improve but have been having some low mood and cannot be bothered syndrome and get around to it tomorrow. Is this a common symptom and does it pass? Thanks I

anxiety: how do you handle it
I’ve been having panic attacks about once a week and it triggers me to make impulsive decisions like starting arguments. I’ve tried breathing exercises which helps sometimes. What do you all recommend that helps? 🙂

PPP symptoms
I have been reading my records and one of the points that I don't understand is that one psychiatrist had written when he assessed me before I got really unwell with PPP.. is that I didn't have delusion or hallucinations... but had insight to my illness... I am not sure if this is a typical symptom

side affects of anxiety and depression meds
hello everyone this is my first post. I’m wondering if anyone has had negative side effects from taking Wellbutrin and serotonin medications. I started the serotonin in April and then the Wellbutrin mid May. In June my husband walked in the door and told him I wanted a divorce out of the blue. We went

ARE WE ALL "JUNKIES"
Yes. I was thinking about this really. Am I now a "Junkie". I guess so, but not by choice. Controlled drugs - yep I had to sign a form for pregabalin. I'm also on Nefopam too. An addict essentially but not by choice. Do I feel "normal" now. No I don't. I feel fogged actually. Do these two drugs KILL
