      Hi Roook I can understand how you feel, the anxiety is horrible and really messes up your thinking. Have you tried good quality fish oil. I've been reading about it and it's supposed to be excellent at lifting moods, helping anxiety and giving you focus...I need buckets of it. You're doing well, hang on in there. Koala

      I think it was quite selfish of your room mate to expect you still to take her to work even though you were of sick. You should try and be more assertive next time. I also agree with nvrex2. You should go see the dotor and rule out any sicknesses. Im very lucky because i have recently began to feel a lot better. I know that this may not last forlong but its good enough for me for now. I hope this comes to you in time but for now get to the docs

    • Close Anxiety

      Had severe depression and anxiety all through my teens. Went on Paxil when I was 20 that helped a lot. Helped me get out of my situation and start over. Recently went off the paxil and the depression hasn't return but the constant anxiety is pretty annoying.

      Treatments

      Paxil Working / Worked
      Helped keep my anxiety and depression under control for years.
      Lexapro Somewhat Helpful
      It's taken the edge off the anxiety I was having which almost put me in the hospital. Makes me really sleepy though
