Rexulti, Electroconvulsive Therapy, or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation?
I have treatment-resistant Major Depressive Disorder and
Social
/General
anxiety
. I've been in therapy and tried so many different medications over the past 12 years for depression, but at least once every 3 months, I start feeling severely depressed. I can't get out of bed and I have to miss work.

First Post.
The research I did during my teen years brought me to consider
anxiety
,
social
anxiety
and depression to be the most definite cause of this. My family (aside from my brother and grandparents) have denied it because they don't think I express any signs of it.

Do I have social anxiety disorder
I'm having a really hard time talking to people who I'm not best friends with or something, like my teacher or my grandparents. Also presenting in front of many people, makes me SO anxious. I don't know what to do. Please help if possible.

Arguments Impacting Mood
I think it’s the
anxiety
from me wanting everyone to like me? Or the
social
anxiety
from being embarrassed when other people hear? Idk if this makes any sense at all, but it does to me right now. I never know how to get out of the funk or to stop thinking about it.

Anxiety is under better control
The fluoxetine is helping and all, I still feel very tense sometimes but I am much better now than I was a couple months ago. Thank God, I was beginning to think I'd never get better! I read the book "My age of anxiety " by Scott stossel and it really helped me. It helps a lot just knowing I am not

Introduction - Mountain Boy, Denver, CO
Hi everyone, I have Dysthymia, which is chronic depression. It's not as severe as many other forms of depression, but it's long lasting and difficult to overcome. It feels like I cannot really enjoy anything, nothing satisfies me, and I'm constantly in a negative mood.

Feeling Broken
After some time after my daughters diagnosis, we decided to start medication since we feel she was starting to have some
anxiety
issues and
social
problems at school. This took a long to time just to accept and I still wonder if we are making the right decision which is adding to my own stress.

There is a fabulous site that I found on Facebook called “The Mighty”. Check out this article regarding behaviors caused by ANXIETY

social
and work life from this. It makes my
anxiety

Constant sadness
I have come to my last resort. I don't even post on Facebook, I don't share my problems, I feel like I bug people when I discuss anything related to myself, but I've come to a point I just can't take it anymore. No I have no suicidal tendencies. I am your typical girl at this point of the conversation

Fluoxetine - Worse Before Better?
Hi, everyone! I've not been around for a while as I had a major breakdown which meant I spent 11 days in hospital. I was 'boarded out' of my own NHS area as no beds were available locally (not unusual) so I wasn't under my own psychiatrist. He did however contact the hospital psychiatrist and agreed

Hi all new here.
I have been struggling with
social
anxiety
for many years now, and anxiety in its self is taking over my life. On top of that I suffer from really bad migraines. Doctor has prescribed Prograne beta blockers that I must say are helping me manage the headaches and the anxiety.
