Awaiting for an ICD procedure
Hi am on the waiting list for a medical procedure (transvenous ICD) and my existing travel insurers (Safesure) wont insure me for a forthcoming trip to France. Does anyone have a recommendation for another UK insurer?

ADAA Story of Triumph: You Can Teach an Old(er) Dog – With OCD – New Tricks! (Or Why I Attended an OCD Treatment Program in My Late 40s)
Christine has struggled with

Compulsive
Disorder
(
OCD
) since she was 5 years old. She is still grappling with the disorder but the obsessions are different now that she's older; instead of having irrational fears of being a "bad" child, she now has problems with perfectionism.

Another day another panic attack 😭
I picked up my new prescriptions today, came home, told my husband the doctor said it was optional...go pick them up, but if I thought I could make it through it, then I didn't have to take them. I have been doing pretty good since I last posted in here, so I planned to put the meds up "just in case"

Ibrutnib, HBP, RLS, and insomnia issues
I'm an 80 year old male and have been on ibrutinib for the past 18 months. The ocologist approved my request to reduce my treatment to 2 doses per day but has so far refused my request for an additional reduction to one a day. I've lived a healthy lifestyle so ibrutinib is the only medication I've been

is this too many?
I have just worked out that since I was prescribed Verapamil, middle of June 2023, as a Pip, I have had 12 Af episodes when I have taken the pip (which sorts me out) I know I have had shorter af episodes since being on nebivolol, not reaching a high rate - I think the highest has been 138, maybe 142

Trihexyphenidyl medication for PD
Hello, my husband with tremor dominant PD has been prescribed Trihexyphenidly (aka Artane, Trihexane and Tritane) by his neurologists to try and reduce his tremors. He is currently on Madopar and its not really helping. Does anyone have any experience with this drug? Many thanks.

Panic Attack Last Night and Today
Didn’t sleep at all. It was a very light sleep. Still felt awake and crazy. Very foggy and light feeling. Feels like I’m losing touch with reality and I’m terrified. I don’t know what to do. I’m seeing my doctor today at 1:45. I was doing great for a few days. Day 12 of my 50mg on Zoloft.

depersonalisation/derealisation
hi guys, I suffer with anxiety and currently take 100mg Sertraline daily. One of my big anxiety symptoms is depersonalisation and I feel like I don’t exist. This feeling only worsens the anxiety and it’s one big cycle! I have been on Sertraline for 7 months now and would say I experience less

It feels like too much…the way things seem…
I find myself very overwhelmed with my responsibilities, and with my racing anxious and negative thoughts and fears about the future. I feel tired all the time. I push to exercise and meditate each day and barely eat and have been sleeping more. I thought I was depressed. My therapist says sounds
