Support Groups
Close Anxiety
I have a family history of depression and anxiety. As a teen I suffered from anorexia. I was luckily able to overcome that in my twenties! However, it's been replaced by anxiety and some depression. I struggle daily with both. Often it's perpetuated by my line of work -- social work -- which is high energy often dealing with crisis, etc.
Treatments
- Ativan Somewhat Helpful
- eventually, did not seem to notice a difference
- Breathwork Somewhat Helpful
- I forget to do this. Helps for a bit and then the anxiety creeps back in.
- Inderal Somewhat Helpful
- Doesn't seem to have an effect.
- Lexapro Too Soon to Tell
- Just started a couple of weeks ago. Waiting to see
- Meditation Somewhat Helpful
- I dont stick with it.
- Paxil Working / Worked
- Tried in the past
Close Healthy Relationships
I've always been involved in rather co-dependant or enmeshed relationships.. starting as far back even as my best (female) friend in kindergarten! So, essentially, I'm used to being with a partner. In 2004 I divorced the partner I had been with for 8 years and married for 3. Now, I'm trying to figure out myself and what it means to be in a healthy relationship and negotiate dating without getting hurt.
Treatments
- Couples Counseling Working / Worked
- Was in couples counseling during divorce and with a boyfriend since then. Sort of helped
- Patience Working / Worked
- Breathing techniques help a lot.
- Talking Working / Worked
- Communication is good. But I feel like I tend to talk too much and get myself in trouble. I need to learn how to censor myself sometimes..
- Writing Working / Worked
- Writing helps me with all my "issues." :)
Open Stress Management
Treatments
- Patience Working / Worked
- I don't live in the moment enough..
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- I haven't been getting to the gym enough though
Open Depression
Depression runs in my family. I've had an eating disorder in the past and normally suffer from anxiety rather than depression. But at times feel hopeless.
Treatments
- Celexa Working / Worked
- Used in the past
- Lexapro Working / Worked
- using now and unsure if it's working yet. Still have panic attacks on it.
- Meditation Working / Worked
- Working on this with my therapist
- Positive Thinking Working / Worked
- I try.. but it doesn't really come naturally.
- Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
- Usually call my mom..
