Stress Center Peer Support

My doctor takes time to listen to everything in my life (which is rare to find a doctor to take time nowdays.) He knows what's going on at home. He has tried giving me advice on fixing things and offered to suggest a marriage counselor for us. My husband refused, he doesn't believe in that. So after...

Hi Zoe M Thanks for the advice. You actually told me the very thing I have learned to do out of desperation. haha For some reason I thought that was the wrong thing to do, you know avoidance. I also assumed finding humor in it would make it go away. I suppose if it works though it can't be wrong. Ag...

I've been on Lexapro 40mg for about a month now, feel much more positive--but like you, mornings are sooo hard. I've been able to work from home for the pas...

Thank you for sharing that. I haven't cried like that in a long time. It is so necessary to know that we are not alone and suffering without the support and love we desire. Thank you again. -J

Yes, I have heard this. I went through this. I was on Zoloft and got switched to the generic form. I could feel it little by little not working. I was on it for about 6 months, when I "crashed" and my depression and anxiety came back full force. (I hadn't had any problems for 4 years). I finally ask...

If you are willing to join the message board then you will see there is a whole section for anxiety and panic. A lot of the members always say that anxiety it their worst symptom.
