I'd say my family helps me out the most with my anxiety/depression. We've always been a fairly close family, but since my dad passed away this year, it's been even closer. I can't stress enough how...
A congratulations is definitely in order Percy. Great job ! :)...
Hi ComedyDork, I'm a fellow insomniac as well, so I share your pain, lol :o. What's helped me a pretty good deal is 100 mg of Seroquel that my psychiatrist recently prescribed me. I've been through...
In terms of your dosage though, I would definitely give it a shot. I would think the side-effects would be next to none on such a small dosage as that....
I've taken Lexapro for the past 5 months. My primary physician said it's great for anxiety as well as depression so I was like ok, well good let's try it. I don't feel like it's done that much for...
My good... I'm alive. It doesn't always seem like that's a true blessing but it is. The astros won last night. I don't have work or class today, so kinda a nice day to just relax a bit. The family...
Hi there hlayne, Welcome aboard! I can definitely emphatize with the thoughts constantly running through your head and not sleeping as well as you'd like. I think I have a weird triage of ADD,...

Thanks everyone. It's great to feel like I'm welcome already :) and a welcome to mom9mom and southerngirl as well!...
Hi Everyone! I'm brand new here. I've been in the war against low-self esteem, chronic anxiety/depression for about 3-4 years now. There are good days and bad days as cliche as that sounds. I find...
Or a slightly better way of saying the above which just popped in my head would be, just because someone elses problems SEEM bigger than yours, doesn't mean that you can't voice your opinion about...
The putting your problems thing in perspective is good every once in a while. Like, X person went through a hurricane, perhaps I won't die if I'm stuck in traffic for 10 mins longer today (at least...
I'll nth counseling as well. It's helped me a whole lot. Things are still far from where I'd like them to be, but it's progress and just doing something as simple as seeing a counselor at my college...
I'll just add my two cents in for the "it might be time to change your therapist" crowd. It happens. I didn't wanna shop around at first, so I settled for a boring therapist that I saw for around a...
