Support Groups
Close Panic Attacks
Have been suffering from panic attacks for 20 years, but has gotten worse the last 7 years.
Treatments
- Klonopin Working / Worked
- I take .5 mg as needed to quickly calm during an attack or if I am going to be in a situation that will cause one.
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- Been working with my therapist on this for 6 years.
- Xanax Working / Worked
- Take it only at night PRN.
- BuSpar Working / Worked
- I recently increased to 30 mg BID.
- Paxil Not Working
- Horrible, made me a zombie & feel numb all over.
Close Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
I have been suffering with IBS-D for close to 20 years. I have cycles of bad spells, with severe diarrhea & abdominal pain. Difficult to know what to eat. Avoid fried & spicy foods, lettuce & dairy.
Treatments
- Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Somewhat Helpful
- NEVER eat salad in a restaurant - no can do! Also avoid fried & greasy foods & most dairy.
- Psyllium Not Working
- I found adding fiber to my diet to be more irritating.
- Imodium Working / Worked
- I basically live on this stuff. I probably take at least 2-3 per day! It helps, but not always when I'm suffering from a severe bout.
- Bentyl Working / Worked
- I was prescribed this PRN, but have been taking it daily for the past month. It does help slow things down. I take it before I fly or if the stomach churns.
Open Anxiety
Dx'd with GAD 7 years ago. I get very nervous before going to events, so I think I have some social anxiety as well - even though I love to be social.
Treatments
- BuSpar Somewhat Helpful
- Just increased to 30 mg BID.
- Klonopin Working / Worked
- Take .25 or .5 mg PRN.
- Lexapro Too Soon to Tell
- Just started with 5 mg, to increase to 10. But I have bad side effects with all SSRIS.....hoping this works.
- Seroquel Not Working
- 25 mg BID, but will wean off since starting Lexapro.
- Zoloft Not Working
- Horrible - hated the sexual side effects! I don't seem to tolerate SSRIS.
