Anxiety, stress and panic attack thread.

Whatever it is do not follow through. I've been depressed and now that I look back at it, it made me make a-lot of irrational decisions and thankfully I never did anything. Go to the doctor, therapy or anyone who you're close with even if they may be hurt by your past actions. I have one person that I would go to if it all goes downhill from here, and I'm sure she'd be really understanding. Keep yourself close with love'd ones and forget what you may have done to them, no one wants you to go, especially them.

Thanks. I ended up being hospitalized for four days. My Psychiatrist probably saved my life. It was only my fear of how my loved ones would feel that kept me from doing it.

I went through some severe depression in my last job and had some really bad panic attacks before I quit that job. I took a couple years off of work (while taking lorazepam) and i eventually got over my depression. The only thing that sucks... I went back to work about a year ago and have recently started getting my hours cut back (causing me to stress out again) and I feel like my depression is coming back again...

I only take medicines when it ruins my quality of life excluding the occasional migraines due to eye issues. The last time I got on an actual medicine was when I had H1N1. That is something you do not want. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Imagine the worst flu you ever had, multiply it 10 times an toss in pneumonia, bronchitis, strep etc on top of it all. I seriously though I was going to die.

Me too...

Usually I just listen to music when I get pissed or am stressed about something. It helps me forget about what I am stressing over and allows me to deal with the problem.
