I've been spending most of my time in the anxiety and depression forum but now think maybe it's really bp. I'm so up and down all the time. I can't work because my mind is so fuzzy and I can't...
Dee! I'm sooooo glad I found your post. I too am on fluoxetine and omeprazole. They told me I have ulcers. I'm on the fluoxetine to help with my anxiety. A dr put me on clonazepam and it made my...
I got the Mirena due to uncomfortable periods and extreme cramping when bleeding. Insertion was quite painful. Hopefully the pain will all be worth it in the end. Thanks for your comment!!...
Thanks! I'll keep you updated...
Today I had the Mirena placed in my uterus. Side effects can include mood changes. I'm just wondering if anyone else has the Mirena and if so, did it make your anxiety worse? Hopefully it doesn't!...
Oops forgot the 1980. I emailed u now lol...
Yeah it's been hard to return :( but I did it. You can too! I emailed you :)...
I'm so sorry you are struggling so. It hurts me :(. I returned to work for a while today. I made it through but I was nervous. Sean what's your email. I feel we should keep in touch more. I worry...

That's ok :) I hear ya..it was hard for me to end my relationship last year too. I felt really alone for a while, but now I feel so glad that I did it. Today I feel pretty good! It's very cold...
Yes a light at the end of the tunnel!!! I'm so happy. I think I'll still be nervous, but I will get through this! And so will you! I'm really sorry about the gf :( if she ended it because of your...
Sean it went really well! She gave me so many pointers! I'm going to even join an 8 week support group coming up soon! How r u doing?...
Yeah. I always get embarassed of my feelings because I sound crazy when I say them outloud. I've got 10 min until my appt ugh. Wish me luck! You know ppl from Wisconsin? That's pretty dope, Sean! I...
My session isn't for a few hours. I'm kind of dreading it. I don't like people analyzing me....
Hi display. Yes, I feel ya. Life is overwhelming. I've been off work 2 weeks because of anxiety. I'm finally seeing a therapist today. Have you ever talked to someone? Try to prioritize your tasks at...
Hi simmo. Australia is another place id love to travel to someday. With all the anxiety and stress of my job, I've lost almost 20 pounds in the last few months. I hear exercising helps and now that...
Yeah it is scary. I totally feel ya on that one. I have a therapist appointment tomorrow that I'm already nervous for. Can't sleep. I've always wanted to go to Europe. I don't know if I'd like to...
Yes I do :( very fuzzy. When get those feelings I get anxious. So I took more lorazepam and feeling a little better. I know we can get through this. It's an illness like anything else. Here in...
Sean my anxiety has gotten worse too. I called my dr and she upped my lorazepam too. In also seeing a therapist tomorrow. Ugh. I hate talking about my feelings to a stranger. I know it will help....
Thank you :)...
Your heart will not stop. Call your wife at work and have her check on you a few times throughout the day. Take a deep breath. You are ok. Think positive. You are just panicking. Listen to some...
I definitely would rather just worry about myself. I feel being a manager is a lot of responsibility, especially when you are anxious. I have my own apartment and I need to keep a job that will...
Yes! These past 2 weeks I've been super spacey. It's because my thoughts just keep going and never stop. If I rest, then they do. As soon as I wake they are there again. I really don't want to wait 2...
Thank you I will!...
Yeah. I have a really hard time relaxing. My job is super stressful. I'll have to take a look at those and see if it helps me. Thank you...
Ishiman, what meds do you take for your anxiety? My panic attacks have gotten really outrageous and I'm not able to work right now. i'm on fluoxetine 60mg and lorazepam as needed....
I know....I hate that. Try to take a few deep breaths. It's REALLY hard to get that fear of going crazy out of your mind. What I do, is leave my apartment and visit my parents/sisters. I sometimes...
I wish it would go away now! lol :) But thank you so much for your help!...
Sean, whenever I am sick I always feel more depressed and anxious. I don't know if its the chemical imbalance in our bodies or what. But I totally understand that feeling. I think when you have a...
Oh Sean :( I'm in the same boat as you right now :( How do we get through this? :( I'm so low on money right now because I haven't been working. My job is so understanding, but my landlord isn't! I'm...
Thank you kitt. I think I will try the journaling. Then I can show my therapist what goes on in my head. I'll also try to think positive. Thank you for your words....
Weary, how do you suggest I enjoy my freedom? I feel really worthless today because I had to take another week. But I physically can't handle it right now with the change in meds. Does anyone else...
I'm on 60 mg of fluoxetine and lorazepam as needed. I just recently got bumped to 60 and it's not working. I can't work. My mind races and I have panic attacks at work. My stomach hurts right in the...
I had to take another week off work. I just hope the meds start working soon. I don't wanna lose my job. I also am looking for a different job too, so we will see what happens. I'm 25 and have been...
I took another week off. They aren't firing me. They are worried about me. I really need to figure things out. Maybe try to get in to talk to someone.... Anyone. Thank you for your words. I am single...
Wish you luck too. We can get through this!...
I'm reading power over panic by Lucinda Bassett and it's really good. My worst symptoms would be diarrhea, stomach ulcer pain, and the sense of not being real. I don't want this job anymore. If I get...
I was on 40 for about 5 months. It worked well then stopped. Lorazepam is to help calm you down when you have panic. I'm going to ask for another week off work because I cannot go in yet. I'm so...
Ginax I feel for you. 2 weeks ago I was in the er on and off for 2 days. All my results were normal. They told me to follow up with my primary dr so I did. I was still having this pain. My dr said I...
It's so hard to make a decision like this. If I quit I'll have no insurance and no income. I do have a job interview next week. If I keep the job I live in worry everyday and my stomach ulcers act up...
Jsh oh do I know the feeling. I myself am having a really hard time working. I took a medical leave all last week and may need to this week too. I too feel fuzzy when I drive. I drove yesterday to...
Hey sc. I did the pros and cons thing last night and cons outweigh the pros. I guess I'm also scared of letting down my friends and family. I don't want them to think I'm a bum right now for not...
Hi Sean. Yes I'm on fluoxetine. I went from 40 to 60 last week. Plus I take lorazepam. I know exactly how you feel about your gf not understanding. That's one reason my bf and I broke up last year....
I just honestly don't think doing a managerial job is best for me. It's too much right now. I didn't even go to school for management. I went to school for administrative assistant. I would rather...
Sean...I'm new here too. I'm a 25 year old female that has had anxiety since I was very young. I feel EXACTLY the same as you. I've been crying the last few days because I'm so terrified in my own...
Born in Wisconsin....live in Minnesota :)...
New here...really struggling with my anxiety. I've struggled with anxiety since I was in high school, and I'm 25 now. I've went from job to job, thinking the next one would be better. I've realized...
