Advice for finding a therapist for ADHD daughter?
Hi! I have a 9 year old daughter who likely has ADHD. She constantly feels like an outsider, like she doesn't fit in, like she isn't "good enough", like she is different. She is actively asking for someone to talk with -- a specialist who really understands what it's like to have a brain like hers

Off topic Friday: A wonky badger
Our supermarket sells wonky fruit and vegetables. We buy them happily, telling them: "You are tasty. You are enough. We will enjoy you." When I finished this portrait, I realised she is a little wonky. "Not matter," I told her. "I think you are cute. I shall enjoy having you in my collection of drawings

My son
I'm new here. I have a 19 year old that has been coping with depression, anxiety, OCD for 3 years now. He went from athletic and very social to deep depression. He had a great therapist for a few years but our insurance decided they no longer would cover the expense. My son is still struggling. He

Walking aides
Hi everyone,. It's been a while since I've posted on here. I just wondered what everyone else does regarding walking aides. At present I walk with two normal walking sticks in the house and garden. I used to walk with one, but I'm too wobbly now and my lower back and neck are really not good probably

Is it worth me seeing my GP?
It’s my first time posting about this and I’d like to ask for help from other people in the same boat as me. I have been running bloods tests using Thriva for a few years following an out of range TSH result about 6 years ago at my surgery. After hours of reading and listening to podcasts I realised

Im nobody. Insignificant. Everyone is fed up of me. Im not important to anyone. Im a burden. The last choice. The 1 nobody wants in the team
My unimates would watch me die and do nothing. Ppl in my country would throw me under the train and watch. Not even watch because im not that important. My "friends" are giving up on me because im traumatized. Everyone is always like "get a therapist, get a psychiatrist". I have a psychiatrist and two

Hi! I’ve been living with MDD and anxiety for as long as I can remember. I recently had a huge setback about 6 months ago. I see a therapist, I’m on medication and have gone through two rounds on intensive outpatient programs. I am now not able to work because of my depression and anxiety. Now I’m left

Here's the full story
In 2013 I had a seizure and after that I has fatigue and my eye would twitch. I thought then I just needed sleep that will fix it. But it did not and in 2015 my right arm started randomly moving.

Social Phobia and AA Meetings?
I quit drinking a little over 3 months ago. I used alcohol to deal with my social isolation, severe SA, and my OCD. Over time, alcohol ended up making everything much worse. So I decided to quit drinking, but I have a hard time being a part of the meetings or the AA community. I’m terrified to turn

I'm being my own health detective, but need help!
Hello, first-time poster here, and worried, so please be gentle...! 😔 I'm a woman approaching 50 😬 and have had so many crappy - but not serious - things happening.

Depersonalization/derealization
I was a very anxious and nervous person growing up. And the emotional neglect growing up didn't help. I've had chronic depersonalization since age 14 which was decades ago. Has anyone had it for a long time 24/7? Therapists don't seem to understand that it's not always from a traumatic event. That's

OCD therapy
Hello everyone. Has anyone tried EMDR for their OCD? I know ERP is usually the first line of treatment but my therapist only offers the former. I’m just wondering if anyone has tried it and what the results were. Thanks for any help or advice. Eddie
