obsessive thoughts
I have periods of anxiety that take over my brain for months at a time. All day I monitor every thought to gauge my anxiety levels. It’s exhausting. What do others do to break that cycle?

The TMS journey continues...
One of my primary issues has been
social
anxiety
but I went to a function this weekend by myself and did photography of the people and activities for the organization and had no anxiety about it at all and really enjoyed it.

My Current Struggle Is Food
Another complication is that
social
anxiety
makes it challenging to eat in public or even get take out. I can do fast food. But anything else... by myself... would be very hard.

Taking anti depressants
Hi I’m new to the group! I just needed some reassurance on taking fluoxetine for depression and anxiety for the first time.

Frozen in time
For 16 years I have struggled tremendously with a undiagnosed form of major depression and
anxiety
. My
social
anxiety
is so fierce I am too afraid to make phone calls, answer them or even listen to voice-mail. I don't even think I have received a hug from anyone in the last 5 years.

Is this normal?
So I keep reading and being told by health professionals that exercise is good for fibromyalgia and that
social
interaction is good for my
anxiety
and depression, but although I try to do these things it ends up making me so ill.

Diazepam addiction.
Hi, I have been addicted to diazepam for a few years and have finally tapered down over a few months to 1mg per night. I honestly don't think it is strong enough to matter but if I don't have one just before I go to bed I cannot sleep. Also would taking magnesium oxide and 1mg of diazepam interact

ADHD and social anxiety
Hi, I recently have identified that a reason I feel uncomfortable socially is because I feel people don’t understand my ADHD. I mean I don’t understand it either! But with problems such as light sensitivity, I often want to say something but worry people with think I’m being too sensitive or weak. Also

Ut OH, I STOLE SOMETHING
I had a problem a long time ago. It started at Walmart. I filled my cart with rose bushes and there was nobody around to check me out. I kept asking for help and nobody would help me. I waited and waited nobody came. I got mad and took the buggy to my car and loaded the roses inside. Then I walked back

Back in 2020 I suffered a panic attack from what was determined as
social
anxiety
in the office. I’ve since been working from home but still suffer with everyday things and avoid what should be enjoyable events such as holidays.
