talking to my friends, especially those on DS help me a lot.

Open Panic Attacks

i've had a few anxiety attacks..theyre far from fun. i've passed out once, but i can usually control my breathing after awhile. sometimes i need a bit of help from another person though.

Treatments

Psychotherapy Too Soon to Tell

i've been told how to handle anxiety attacks. i havent had once yet since the suggestions..so we'll see how it works out.

Open Diets & Weight Maintenance

i've been overweight since...well since forever. im still struggling but i think in the end the only thing thats going to work is old fashion diet and exercise.

Treatments

Physical Exercise Too Soon to Tell

i was with a gym but then didnt have a ride there anymore. we now have a treadmill and a home gym that i will be using. hoping it will work.

Slim-Fast Not Working

tried it when i was younger. didnt work.

South Beach Diet Considering

i've heard many goooood things about the SBD. i might be willing to give it a shot.

Weight Watchers Not Working

tried it for about 9 months or so..i lost a bit, but i got discouraged when i gained a few pounds and i stopped WW. ever since, i've gained back what little i lost (only like 5-6 pounds) and then some.

Open Pet Bereavement

i had a dog that i've had since i was born..he was my best friend. I loved him soo much. We had him put down a little over a year and a half ago...and it still hurts more than anything. i miss him..he was 15 when we had him put down. very old. but it still hurts so much.

Open Migraine Headaches

i get migrains and occasionally optical migrains. i get headaches more frequently than migrains. i really hate them and sometimes the migrains are enough to keep me in bed for a full 24 hours.

Treatments

Caffeine Somewhat Helpful

i think some of the headaches are caused by my ups and downs with caffeine. i'll drink caffeine a lot and then not at all sometimes. after not, going back to it keeps headaches away.

Excedrin Working / Worked

i use excedrin when tylenol and IBprofen dont work.

Tylenol Working / Worked

tylenol and IBprofen usually work.

Open Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

i became depressed after reporting abuse from a family friend to the police...i also have times where i feel lonely, depressed, and un-worthy/inferior to everything.

Treatments

Psychotherapy Working / Worked

im in counselling and it does help..it seems to help talking about everything.

Writing Somewhat Helpful

writing helps..but sometimes it seems to just be an excuse to vent.

Open Home Schooling

im a sophomore in high school. i dropped out of my local high school nov. 2007. im now being cyber schooled. i LOVE it.

Open Vegetarians & Vegans
Type: Lacto-ovo vegetarianism (No meat)

im considered a lacto-ovo vegetarian. milk and eggs are NOT meat. i dont like eating eggs...but i do occasionally. milk is OK... but im kinda picky about that too. i call myself a full vegetarian, even if the books say im not. i've had people purposly chew meat in front of my face just to be rude about it. honestly, i wanted to punch them. i dont mind if others arent vegetarians/vegans and eat meat, however, rubbing it in that they eat meat is just un-called for.

Open Anger Management

i thought i may be bipolar...or just have anger management issues. i get soo mad at some of the dumbest things to the point where i wanna hit something or throw something...idk. i've never been tested for bipolar or anything anger wise. my dad has/had a lot of anger issues so it might be heriditary.who knows.

Treatments

Music Somewhat Helpful

this helps sometimes..other times it just doesnt cut it.

Open Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

I wash my hands WAY too much. im like a germaphobe or something. I also have issues with doors and their locks... if i lock a door, i have to twist the knob 4-8 times to make SURE its locked, then re-twist the lock and do it again. I cant touch things an odd amount of times. i either have to touch it 2, 4, 6, or 8 times. 4 and 8 preferance. and it has to be with BOTH hands, an even amount. Im just weird.

Open Weight Loss For Teens

I'e been overweight 95% of my life. I'm 16 and a full 100 pounds overweight. I'm beginning to lose hope =/
