hi everyone! I am writing because I wanted to see if anybody had similar experiences. I am four months post total thyroidectomy, and in the first month or so I didn’t really feel many or any symptoms. Now in the past two months, I feel like I am feeling more symptoms of hypothyroidism than I did, in

Panic Attacks
Hello- for over 20 years I struggled off and on with anxiety. I had learned to manage and cope with anxiety attacks and stress. I got divorced later in life, and I had a traumatic experience from my ex-husband and his threats of telling me he would kill me and my current husband. This escalated and

Amiodarone / Cordarone
Hi to Everyone, Hoping for some advice, information on what to expect next. Had an ICD fitted in Feb 2022 and was put on max dose of Betablockers , 200 mg. Alas over the weekend had a series of dizzy spells which ended with a massive shock from the ICD. Emergency admission, very dramatic, followed

anxiety
I’m really struggling. I drank an energy drink Friday and had a panic attack. Well, ever since then I’ve been hyper focused on my heart rate. I can’t shake it so of course my heart has been racing and I just feel like I’m about to have a heart attack. I don’t even know what to do. I feel so defeated.

Message of Victory and Hope
I started Spravato today. Already a major shift has happened with my thoughts. I feel lighter, no anxiety, no worries (and coming from someone with PTSD and panic attacks, this means a lot). Spravato is amazing. My abusers already saw a change in me, too, and have been unhappy about it and I. Do.

ICD therapy and reapplying for driving licence
I am approaching the time when I should be able to start applying for my driving licence. I had an ICD fitted last August and voluntarily surrendered my licence. It was tough, but I did it over the phone and the DVLA person was really helpful and empathetic. I then received device therapy in October,

I need to get off Gabapentin due to horrible side effects. It seems like I am looking at Prozac or Buspar or the best anxiety med to help get my life back. I realize all meds have side effects so i need some guidance.

bad panic attacks
hi, im someone who has been diagnosed with a panic disorder. I've always had panic attacks since I was around 10. The attacks have always been debilitating and the triggers have evolved with time. There have been periods when I have been quite anxiety-free, while there have been times when my panic attacks

In OA I heard it said that if you are anorexic you dont need to overeat to gain the weight back you just have to eat normally and that it is also true that if you have gained a lot of weight through

stage 4 endo
hi all, I’m 20 and just been diagnosed with stage 4 endo. My endo specialist has given me a couple of options. Either take norethisterone and see how that goes or surgery for excision. I want a family and he said some women can conceive naturally and others need help. I just wondered what other people

intro
my anxiety has been ruling my life lately. I can’t do normal daily tasks without feeling intense worry or having panic attacks. My rescue meds make me too sleepy and it’s difficult to function at work.

My mother is the person I like the least.
I have had the best moments of my life when I wasn't with my family. I also believe that they are kind of bad luck for me. Because if I had a chance at choosing, i would choose only my sister again for the next lifetime. I feel that my father although loves me but has had his own fights going forward

I think I have PTSD
I consistently have intense nightmares to the point that I have to take medication for it (Prazosin.) I don't understand why I keep having nightmares but when I check the symptoms I have nearly all of them. My nightmares are usually about me still being in high school having to redo my senior year even

No diagnosis - still in hospital on my 34 th day!
Hi all, I was asked to update after I scattered a few posts earlier in the month seeking information following a collapse (syncope) while running in my local Parkrun. That was back on January 27th.I bigged up my ILR as it later showed I had had a left ventricular tachycardia lasting for 23 seconds.
