Hello all, just found this forum today.
So I haven't officially been told this is anxiety. But from what I have read online it seems to be. A bit of background, I have Tourettes Syndrome so a lot of these depressions come easier to people like me, so I have read. It gives me comfort to think that at least. So anyways most of my anxiety comes from relationships with people (like friendships, not with a SO or anything). Comes and goes. This past few months it has gotten really bad. I originally thought it was just depression over things, but then pains started (mostly in my left arm, I'm a young person so I didn't assume heart attack). I don't know exactly how to open up to my parents about it, so I was thinking of just trying to go for a check up and asking the doctor. What is the typical course of action to get medical help? And I'm not really looking for medications, I've taken enough in my early years with TS (took Prozac, Straterra, and Paxil when I was in my early to mid teens).
Thanks forum.
