Picking of nails and skin with my 6 year old.... Help!
Hello, I am new here and seeking help. My 6 year old son who has ADHD and is taking Adderrall XR is picking the skin off of the top of his fingers. I spoke to him about it several time and whenever I am around, I can get him to sit on his hands or do something else so it doesnt happen, but its mostly

Separation Anxiety with specific people
I've struggled with (self-diagnosed but backed up by numerous therapists) anxiety for about 6 years (I'm 20 now). Around 2 years ago, I made one super close friend, which doesn't often happen, and while I know we had an intense relationship, she was the only thing that calmed down my panic attacks. She

I feel trapped.
I have been in the military for 2 years and some change now and I feel so alone and stuck in a horrible situation. Before I joined, I struggled with depression. But after I joined, it was only emphasized, especially since I have no family or friends around. I have no motivation to do anything for myself

Newly diagnosed, scared, need encouragement
Hi everyone. I was just diagnosed with ADHD, and I'm feeling a lot of things right now. In some ways, it was a relief - something I've known my whole life and was finally validated. But it's also bringing up a lot of feelings. Making me remember all the times I've struggled and felt different and tried

Could use some advice on therapist situation.
I'm the first one to advocate that continued, regular, uninterrupted therapy is necessary when you are at a depression low. With that being said. I have an issue that I could use some help with. I'm on my third therapist in the last six months. I just don't seem to get any help from them. I am planning

I need some advice on a housing situation.
Ok here's the deal. So I am in a group of four girls. A few months back we had a falling out and we did not speak for about 2-3 months. The other three were still in contact and remained close throughout the separation. In that time span, they made the decision to move in together. When we finally began

Amitriptyline with co-drydamol
I’m in a lot of pain at the moment and have just cried my eyes out as I’m feeling so useless. I now also have osteoarthritis in my right hip and knee diagnosed last week, but they also found a meniscus ligament tear in my inner knee. I have been told to double or treble my 10mg dose of Amitriptyline

Anxiety or something else???
Have I been fooling myself. Is it all anxiety? I linger in the background but rarely post. I have suffered with anxiety and panic for years now over 20. I suddenly developed it after developing colitis c difficile from a botched root canal. Thus the anxiety and stomach issues. I always am searching

Classroom discipline (3rd grade)
Hello, wondering if any one has had this issue. My son’s 3rd grade teacher seems to do a lot of “if one person talks in line, the whole class has to go sit down and start over.” My son is ALWAYS the kid who talks in line and blows it for the class. He already has such a difficult time socially. He is

Therapy
Thankfully,I’m starting therapy soon that will target mainly false memory ocd,has anyone gotten therapy for this form of ocd and if so do therapists provide any form of reassurance or do they teach you how to live with the uncertainty?Did you eventually let the memory go?

Hello out there! This is my first post on any format for years. I have so much social anxiety that just one post is taking a very long time to send and create ( I will obsess about what I write here later). However, the need for community and connection is greater and is the motivational factor in putting

Hi, I would like to discuss medication for anxiety, I currently take beta-blockers, I had a bad experience with anti-depressants so for 8 years I’ve just plodded along with my anxiety. This episode of anxiety feels different, I’m not panicking but the fear and impending doom are still creeping in

How do you accept your toxic parents for who they are?
I've written on this site throughout the month about my story but I'll give some context because it's pretty confusing and I've had a realization of sorts. I'm 24. In my culture, children (especially women) don't move out until they're married or if there's no other option for full time work. I'm Caribbean

Why do I feel the need to talk it out?
I have no one to open up to. No friends not close enough to talk about very personal things. Why can’t I be like those people who can keep everything bottles up. Or why can’t I have better help. Haven’t seen a therapist since last year due to Covid.

Accupuncture questions
Hi there. I have been to a few different accupuncture therapists and was interested to learn whether my experiences match that of others. Do your therapists leave the room after they have put the needles in? Or do they stay with you and talk to you? How long are the needles left in for? How regularly

Suffering still with suicidal ideation
My psychiatrist last night said to increase topomax , a mood stabilizer, and I’ll talk to both him and my therapist tomorrow . I talked to my therapist briefly today and she said to relax but I didn’t really. Now I am and it’s making me feel so depressed. Or something is. I want to be positive but something
