    About Me

    I am 31 years old and have been struggling with depression for over 10 yrs now along with anxiety disorder and the feeling of lack of self worth. I often fill like I am never gonna amount to anything and I try so hard to love myself but feel like im so far away. I have been through several relationships and nothing every seems to work out due to trust issues in the past How do I overcome this ? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all and May God bless you.

    Interests

    I pretty much stay close to home due to my panic attacks and the lack of feeling self worth. I often find myself comparing me to one another.

    • Close Anxiety

      I am 31 years old and have had panic anxiety attacks for over 10yrs. I have tried several different drugs to help. I often feel very depressed and wonder why me. I am a mother of 2 beautiful baby boys and have a tough time in relationships due to trust issues and the feeling of lack of self worth. I often worry about things that doesnt matter instead of the things I can change and does matter.

      Treatments

      Breathing Exercises Somewhat Helpful
      I tried and it sometimes works but its very hard to get to a calming point during a panic attack to breathe right.
      Klonopin Working / Worked
      Yes it is working hopefully to my advantage. It does seem to calm me down at my worst points and I refuse to leave home without it. Although it does sometimes makes me sleepy. Only take .5 mgs. maybe 2 times a day.
      Paxil Somewhat Helpful
      I was on paxil for over 5 yrs and my system got immuned to it they said. It was the best drug I had that seemed to help me but after being on 40 mg for so long it didnt work after those years. I was gettting back to the point where I started.
      Positive Thinking Considering
      I hope this will help me with a little help from others I think this will benefit me in the long run seeing how I often compare myself to others and always think the worse in a situation. I am so down on myself and have very little feeling of self worth.
      Zoloft Not Working
      Tried it and no it didnt help. Or at least I didnt give it my all and I think that was alot of my problems when I was younger. I felt there was no hope and that I was the only one suffering from this sorta thing.
    • Close Depression
      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      I have been struggling with depression for over 10 years now on and off. This is probably the worse it has been. I thought I had it conquered however it has came back to haunt me once again. I am bound and determined to beat it again !

      Treatments

      Effexor Too Soon to Tell
      I just started effexor xr 75mg. The doctoc actually told me to increase it 3 days ago to 150mgs. Today I only took 75mgs because I thought that 150 was making me more anxious grrrrrrr.
      Lexapro Not Working
      Tried lexapro and it only made me worse or at least I thought so.
      Paxil Working / Worked
      I was on paxil for 4yrs it seemed to really help HOWEVER my body became immune to it so they decided to put me on effexor xr which I have only been taking for a few weeks and to be honest I don't really like it.
      Positive Thinking Considering
      I really think this has alot to do with my problems and I am willing and ready to try it. I am thinking about writing positive messages on my mirror everyday until I actually start thinking positive thoughts again !
      Prozac Not Working
      Tried it but was allergic to it !
      Seroquel Not Working
      The name itself scared me so I stopped taking it.
      Wellbutrin Not Working
      Tried it way back when. I was still in denial about being depressed so I really didnt give it my all.
      Writing Not Working
      I cannot sit down and read something and remeber what I just read. My comperhension skills have really went to the gutter. I was in college and had to withdraw seeing how I had troubles in studying and I would read a paragraph more then 4 times and still couldn't focus ont he main point. My mind goes to fast...grrrrrrrrrrr.
      Zoloft Not Working
      Tried it and didnt give it my all was still in denial. So therefore I stopped taking it.

      Treatments

      Lamictal Too Soon to Tell
