    Give Authentic123 a hug

    • Hug

      From stherrell Monday

      I'm okay! I just started some medication to help me cope but it seems that all it does is make me sleepy. Is this common? How long does it take to actually help. I need to be able to "live" not just fall asleep..ha!! Thanks for any advice.

    • Close Panic Attacks

      I've had panic attacks in the past but through working on myself I've managed to keep them at bay. As anyone who has experienced panic attacks will know, the slight fear of another panic attack is always with you. This fear stays with you, sometimes it's stronger and other times it's weaker. I thank goodness that there are sites like this that bring conditions such as anxiety and panic attacks, to the forefront.

    • Open Phobia
      Type: Social Phobia

      I consider myself to be a giving, nurturing, and giving person. I have social phobia that relates specifically to being around people I don't know or hardly know, being in large crowds, and having problems starting or maintaining conversations with people I just meet. I do on occasion have my social confidence moments, but they don't last.

      Treatments

      Acceptance Working / Worked
      I'm trying not to get too attached to the negative emotional feelings that go along with being accepted. I am learning to let go if I think I said the wrong thing, made the wrong gesture, or facial expression, or did the wrong thing, etc. I am working on not second guessing myself.
