How do you travel with panic disorder?
Hey all, I have a serious question. How do you travel with panic attacks. I haven't had a serious panic attack in months ( I've has small anxious episodes tho) but I have a trip in less than a month away to Mexico and I'm very concerned about flying. I get very anxious in long car trips but I can usually

My panic attacks are changing
I've had panic disorder for years. It sucks but for the most part I know what to expect. Now I'm having these new panic attacks where my whole body gets cold and I get extremely confused, the world around me feels unreal and unsafe. Right now it's dark outside and it feels like the darkness is closing

Anxiety/memory loss
I am experiencing severe anxiety, especially early in the day, and memory loss. I have been taking Ambien CR 6.25 every night for the past year. Could that be contributing to the memory loss? I am 44.

Re learning to use CPAP
I was using a full face CPAP, took me a while to get used to it, several months when I was diagnosed with poly myalgia rheumatica PMR, which affected my shoulders and for about 6 weeks I couldn't use my mask. Now that's under control I am having problems re learning how to use my mask and I just can't

Clues about panic
The other day that I was shaking uncontrollably from a panic attack. I noticed my body was super cold. Because here in California we are used to warm weather. But the 3 times I had a panic attack I noticed it was super cold. I’m thinking that me being cold mimics the tremors from a panic attack? Like

Relief in the really bad days
I am really feeling the high anxiety right now. I really suffer with it when it grips me like this. I am doing all the right things. Telling myself it won’t hurt me and float through it, but it seems to want to torture me today. Does anyone have any advice? I take .5mg Klonopin cut in quarters 4

Borderline Personality Disorder
So I recently realized that I have BPD. I’ve been misdiagnosed for 17 or so years. I was first diagnosed as being bipolar , then depressed, then bipolar again. I had never heard about BPD until recently and after reading about it, I realized that I meet the diagnostic criteria. I’m 100% sure it’s what

I want to recommend EMDR and Prazosin for PTSD
They both work pretty good! ESPECIALLY EMDR, it even helped me with my fear of heights and now I can ride roller coasters! Prazosin is an RX for flashbacks.

What are you doing for yourself this (holiday) weekend?
In the U.S., it's a three-day weekend. Woohoo! My parents wanted to come over tomorrow, but Fridays are my writing days, so they will be coming on Monday instead. As much as I love them, it's tiring to have them over, so that was the boundary I set for myself, and it feels great! So what are you doing

Has anyone else experienced olfactory hallucinations? Phantosmia?
Im wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I’m really struggling to deal with this FND or whatever it is. Tonight I was laying in bed falling asleep to a Netflix show and I kept getting, in my right nostril, a really foul sewage like smell. I obviously got up smelled my bedding smelled my clothes

Just a reminder / why are nurses appreciated? Vent
Almost nothing can deteriorate your body as quick as stress. I know sometimes we can’t help but feel immense stress with the pressure of our jobs and family responsibilities. But please take a moment the next time you get some free time to do what you need to do to de stress. At work I had 5 patients

Anyone used Vitex (Agnus castus/chasteberry) and did it help or aggravate RLS?
Having heavy n prolonged periods so was researching solutions. Came across Vitex (to balance out hormones) but no idea if it's safe for RLS because when I googled Vitex RLS I read something about it affecting dopamine receptors? Has anyone used this for their periods or any other issue, or can advise
