I'm new to this group. I have PTSD and I can not get past it. I suffer from a lot of rage, anxiety, depression, etc.
I would love to talk with anyone or everyone just for some support as I don't know how to deal with a lot of my feelings. Please feel free to message me, I am willing to talk.

Not really sure what to put for a title
I'm new here and just trying to figure out how to cope with PTSD and anxiety. Its been almost a year with the PTSD and a few months since the anxiety diagnoses. Both of them overlap with each other so I probably could've had the anxiety longer and just didn't know it until I was diagnosed a few months

Antibiotic eye drops- dosage and side effects
After a trab, I was given boxes of antibiotic eye drops called Dexafree. I was diligently taking them but after five days or so, the discomfort and inflammation is gone. Still a blurred vision, which is a concern... Am I supposed to take them until doctors say otherwise? Since this is a steroid eye

Tube surgery
Hello. I am a new member. Last Thursday I had Baerveldt tube surgery to my left eye. Still some blurring and discomfort from the stitches and the eye is watery. There was scar tissue to remove from previous surgery. I saw my consultant the following day and he wasn't surprised when I told him I had

After being diagnosed with GCA due to partial sight loss in right eye I started on 50 mg prednisone. Seven days later back to ophthalmologist to check swelling of optic nerve. It has reduced slightly and now on 30 mg for next month. I am so grateful to my optometrist and her expertise in picking up

Partner with Alzheimers
My partner has Alzheimer’s Disease. Last winter he was feeling very uncomfortable living alone so I invited him to live with me which he did and he was very grateful. But he began to have what I believe were panic attacks as a result of a new living situation, being separated from his beloved cats

Istents and cataract surgery but pressures still high
Hi, I'm new here and looking for some support and advice. I was diagnosed with glaucoma 12 years ago at 38. My pressures have always varied from 18 to 35 (when I was first diagnosed).

Contact lenses and injections
I have myopic cnv in my right eye and had my first injection 12 days ago. I normally wear contact lenses but haven’t worn them since before my injection. Does anyone else have injections and regularly wear contact lenses? I know I’m probably fine to wear them again now but still worried about infections

I am struggling with my PTSD and anxiety.
My PTSD and anxiety have been triggered again, over the past 6 weeks, following a fight with my wife. Having trouble reigning in the overthinking and hypervigilince. What have you done to manage your mind in tough times? I feel a bit bombarded by worry.

Reality check
Mostly I run 6 days a week. Trying to faithfully follow a 5K training plan (Garmin, with coach Greg) this week I took rest days, on Sunday, Wednesday and Friday. Today as part of a [i]Time Trial[/i] run I did 1.6km aiming for 5:12, which is my target 5K pace. To run at that pace I need to shift up

Bacterial Eye infection/conjunctivitis
I have a rather nasty bout of conjunctivitis which is getting me down somewhat. I have been using Chloramphenicol ointment for 3 days but it seems to make the pain worse. Also tried eye wipes and holding a flannel soaked with warm water which is good at relieving the irritation for a while. Its been

Dry Mouth.
For those of you suffering are you doing anything that’s helping you produce more saliva? Not temporary like Biotene products and xylitol. I’m desperate. I don’t have Sjogrens.

CSR and strabismus surgery. Plus benefits of CBD for CSR
Hi guys I was recommended for strabismus surgery.. they said it was I was a great candidate but it’s for both eyes. I’ve never really had it as bad as others may have.. it’s slight but as I’ve gotten older it’s starting to get worse. I’m also a lucky enough to have CSR and I’m curious if anybody has
