Travel + Plane Anxiety
Hi, everyone - Hope you are doing well in your journeys. The last few weeks I have been working through a particularly bad stretch of anxiety. I’ve added Buspar to my medicine regime , really focused with my therapist , and have done meditation and mindfulness. The results have been good , and I am

Let go of what you can not control!
Words of wisdom from my therapist. Why is this so hard to do. I find myself constantly in an anxiety induced stated trying to control things that I cannot or trying to rationalize what I can’t control. How do you do this? Anyone have anything that works here.

Panicing. Alone. Burnt out. Wondering whether to go home to hug sis or to stay here away from family and triggers
Plus my meeting got hacked and i got scared. And i can't breathe from anxiety. And so tired. I need comfort and a hug. Wondering whether to go home to see sis or work at student appreciantice program or just stay here and try to recover. My new therapist is here. But i feel like a flower with no roots

In a hole of depression
I can’t seem to be motivated. I tried everything and the more I try it gets stressful. Haven’t talked to my therapist in 2 weeks and I feel like I’m sinking into a deeper hole of depression. My meds don’t feel like they’re working either.

Keeping on struggling with therapy. Went to group therapy, had an exam, tired, awkward, don't know what is going on home
I went to an irl group therapy today and it was so awkward. The levels of cringe were cosmic 😅. The moment the therapist tells me to look ppl at the eyes, i lose desire to even look at them. And worse it's expensive. And i wasn't bringing enough and got even more awkward. I expected it to be less. I

Your FEAR matrix
As part of my recovery - It took me for ever to see the association between my FEAR and my symptoms primarily THE PAIN. Conceptualising was my most difficult when - listening to my therapist I had three different consultants I understood what they said - It just did not make sense? It was not until

I don't know what is going on home
I don't know what is going on home. Mom should have gone on that work trip. Maybe she left sis at dad (most definetely). I'm scared sis is there getting traumatized. I'm scared mom might meet someone at the trip. I have been writing my exam task, i had to write 20 pages on Law psychology for Tommorrow

My stepmother has my family name
I needed money (for therapy) and dad said he will send. I'm looking at the sending paper and it's not dad's name. It's her name with his adress and his last name. He didn't even tell me he got married. I feel so bad. I feel so bad i missed today's therapy for a therapist that isn't helping me since 2

My idiotic problems 09.06
I missed my new therapy because i can't break up with my old, she's not letting me and i feel bad about not ending it. Even got a new friend and lost her because of this and my idiotic problems with therapists, parents etc. Nightmares of mom and dad again. Always anxious. Went to the pharmacy for meds

Neuro surgeon appointment and CCAS ?
Hello friend’s, I had an appointment with a neuro surgeon yesterday I wasn’t hopeful of anything different than what I had been told before. But I was hopeful of some sort of news that would give me some hope. But the realization soon kicked in once we were five minutes in the room that all hope had

Are you a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)?
Ruminate over past experiences? Easily stimulated? Maybe you feel everything deeply and have high levels of empathy for others? You could be highly sensitive. In this post, we hope that you gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be a highly sensitive person, including behavioural expressions

Been a while
Been a while, but figured I’d put it out there again. I’ve been struggling with a depression that I just can’t seem to kick, I have abused alcohol more lately because of it trying to numb everything but it just causes more trouble for me as per usual. I’m about to lose everything, my wife, my marriage

Educated Queen
Since my original center is temporarily closed. I have started the process with another center and received education today. My biggest take away that the educator said was you must take your meds when you have your transplant and I need to get my BMI down. I'm no stranger to taking meds and being diligent

Need support
I was already dealing with a really painful breakup after a 3.5 year relationship but now I'm also being stalked and harassed by a guy my ex dated right after breaking up with me. She doesn't seem interested in helping and now my anxiety is so bad I can't function. I've lost 20 lbs in the past 2 weeks

10 year old ODD symptoms
We are going on a year of medication treatment with ADHD for my inattentive 10-year-old boy. He started on a low-dose of sertraline, Then we added methylphenidate 10 mg ER and gradually increased it to 20. We eventually weaned him off sertraline and started him in 2 mg of guanfacine. Based on his feedback

What to do
Hi all, it's been a few years since I've posted. Life's gotten better in some aspects, career & confidence. However my mental state is just a mess and taking over my life. I've been on the NHS waiting list for 6 months but a friend of mine has been waiting for well over a year... I can't afford a private

Tired of suffering though today wasn’t horrible
I’m so over suffering I don’t know really how to get myself out of this though I did at least start going for little drives again today wasn’t a horrible day but I keep getting those sensations of being scared weird sensations throughout my body and chest just so over it. I finally sucked it up last

Any advice on how to stay focused?
Hello everyone! My name's Camilla and I'm 26. In October of last year I've been diagnosed with combined ADHD and I'm still trying to adjust to the news. I'm writing because I would like some advice on how to live a healthier life! (TW: mention of antidepressants) I've been in therapy since 2010 circa
