Hello.
I suffer from generalized and
social
anxiety
, panic disorder, PTSD, severe depression, binge eating disorder, minor Tourette’s and anger issues. I’m too broke to go to therapy and my dad doesn’t believe mental health issues exist so he doesn’t think I need it and won’t help me.

New here, really struggling with loneliness.
Hi there, as the post says, I feel lonely all the time. I am around enough people, but I rarely ever feel accepted as a human being. On top of this, my long time gf (the only person in my life that I've felt that understood me) dumped me and found a new bf for herself. I go out, but I'm every bit

Does anyone have any experience taking this? I currently take 5-HTP but I’m not seeing a difference. I don’t know how much longer I can deal with the depression and anxiety that I’m dealing with. It’s been since May when it suddenly appeared, with no signs of it disappearing. It’s painful. The feeling

Social anxiety help?
Hi anyone, I feel struggling with
social
anxiety
and would be very grateful of any advice. In
social
situations I always feel afraid to speak for fear of being judged for what I say, but also I’m afraid of being to quiet.

Need to take 0.25 Xanax for anxiety
Today I went to a psychologist and told him about my
social
anxiety
case and how it is affecting my work. He told me that i have mild anxiety. He suggested 4 options: anti depressant, xanax low dose, beta blocker, and CBT. He mentioned that cbt is for the long run and takes time.

What do you expect when you spend most of your time beating yourself up?
Suddenly you experience health or
social
anxiety
, derealisation, agoraphobia, depersonalisation, panic attacks or claustrophobia. You frighten yourself half to death worrying about it and then follow your instincts and start fighting it.

I have for my entire life suffered with
social
anxiety
(without even realising it and just suffering thinking I was painfully shy) and low self asteem. I have tried CBT but due to a busy life schedule I just couldn’t commit to the set appointment times and kept missing them.

Not quite sure how to live
I suffer from anxiety and depression which I often tried to manage on my own mostly because my
social
anxiety
is really bad and I can't bring myself to talk to a doctor about it.

How can I ever make money with anxiety/depression/disability?
I've been officially disabled since 2015, but I last was able to work in 2002. To give background to my situation: I started working at 14 (as an IRA/Keogh processor, of all things) and worked through college, until graduation at which point I landed a dream job as a pioneer of the virtual reality

Increasing dosage on Escitalopram
Good evening I’m doing well after 8 weeks on 10 mgs of Escitalopram (Lexapro). In the UK 10 mgs seems to be the usual dosage prescribed for moderate GAD. I’m wondering what the benefits are of increasing the dosage as a lot of people (mainly outside UK) seem to do this. Is it because 10 mgs becomes

Social Anxiety help!
Hi, I think I’ve been struggling with
Social
Anxiety
for a while now but I need some help to overcome it. I see myself as a happy person but lately it’s taking over my life and I can’t be happy in my life when I know this is stopping me from meeting new people and enjoying social situations.

I have social anxiety and I don’t know what to do!
Hi! I have always been shy growing up and I’ve broken out of most of it, however I do still get it sometimes pretty bad and I don’t know what to do about this situation. Im scared to go to my boyfriend’s moms house. So the first time he ever took me to his moms house, I had the worst experience ever

Update on my week following disaster of a first day
The awkward girl with
social
anxiety
loves college! Life sure is crazy. But yeah! I am loving college. It does seem to be a trend for me to have an issue with cars at college.

Acutane Advice
The acne is a big factor contributing to his

with feeds his depression. He’s been doing better, generally speaking, and wanted to try Acutane to clear up his face. He says he’s ready to get back into his life but only if his face clears up.
