Hi. I am starting this because I am tired of feeling alone, tired of talking to people who look at me like I'm crazy (or those who have actually called me crazy). I'm starting this to share my experiences, ask that you share yours with me and pray that we can help one another, family members, friends or anyone else who might be interested. I just want us to know that we're not alone (or as alone as we sometimes think and feel).
Hi I have the same disorders as you do I have anxiety, depression, ptsd, due to the fact from my early childhood. i would like to get together to share experiences and help one another out. please feel free to contact me by email so we could talk more privately.
I used to have bad anxiety when I was in my late teens/ early twenties although I think it starting developing since I was 15, the anxiety got so bad I become physically sick, I developed stomach ulcers.
After getting sick I decided I didn't want to live in fear anymore and starting reading books on positive thinking, they really helped me and I'm cured to this day :) I found a great site that I thought might be useful for suffers of anxiety attacks they are dedicated to finding the top resources around to help people who suffer from this mental illness.
I am fearful every morning so you are not alone.. I am religious so God says speak good thoughts say I will be ok and I will get through this and we are not alone..Never ever say we are crazy, always say we have a condition and it can go away.. I have had it a few times in my life and it always goes away.. Let's share our stories and try to encourage one another...We must stay positive that we will be cured... If I can do it you can I get weird thoughts and obessive thoughts sometimes I just want to end it but I know tomorrow might be the day that things are better.. we must hang on..I will pray for all of us.. God bless you, I will be herer for you.. and please be here for me..

Yes, i have panic attacks sometimes, and people ask what is wrong? i was in a church crowded social setting and i felt the strong desire to leave the church. i was just starting to cry not loudly i didn't want to make a scene. Just felt overwhelmed by all the things going on in my life and needed a release....i stayed through the service barely making it to the car without breaking down and just cried all the way home and felt better....i was saddened by Father's Day missing my father so much that was only part of it there is a lot of stress in my life right now that triggers panic attacks. on the surface i try to act all tough and strong it takes me a while to breakdown but when i do the wall comes down and tears fall....some people call me a cry baby...i am a sensitive person sometimes people are afraid to tell me things negative because they are afraid i will get so upset.....
i don't know i think my medication helps but it would help more to be able to talk to people who understand and not assume you are NUTS....which I am not.......
Hi there. I'm sorry it took so long to get back to you. I'm sorry to hear about your troubles...I KNOW how isolating it feels. Have you tried journaling? It helps me a lot...sometimes writing it all down not only puts things into perspective, but helps me to realize why I'm feeling so overwhelmed. It is good talking to others who are like you (and me!) because it does help to know that the feelings and thoughts are part of the illness...it seems the more I (personally) fight it, the worse it is. I just have to accept that this is how I am. The medication HELPS, but it does not (for me) stop me from feeling or thinking the way I do...it does help my mind slow down enough to realize what's happening. It's still difficult though--the constant shaking...I always fear people are going to think I'm on drugs or an alcoholic or something like that. And you can't explain to every person you meet that you have this anxiety disorder going on. I feel your pain--I really do. Are you feeling any better now that Father's Day has passed? Please feel free to keep in touch with me...I'd like that.
Hi, thanks for writing, i am better that father's day. A friend of mine is struggling with identity theft and harrassment issues..i am really worried for him......the credit card companies are threatening his wages
it is not even his charges someone stole his identity....i do okay sometimes i get angry about the way innocent people that don't have any money to hire a lawyer to fight this harassment........
i just carry the weight of the world on my shoulders and try to solve everyone else's problems as if they were my own......i start worrying about something and sometimes it is hard to let it go.....
somedays better than others today isn't the best day......im hanging in there.....
Hi Lynn,
I am so happy that I found people on this site that are suffering from the same thing just in that it doesn't make you feel so alone or isolated.. I know exactly how you feel I went to church on sunday by myself and it was hard but we always make it through and we have our faith and we must be strong in the lord and the power of his might..Stay strong keep in touch and lets support one another. Sometimes I feel like just ending it all but that is wrong thinking I know I will be healed. I had this a few times in my life and it has always went away.. I have a husband mother 3 daughters and one son nothing is going to take me away from them.. They say it is just stressful events that happen and maybe we can't cope with them right now so we go into this state but joy will come in the morning one day..
