This is actually a big fear of mine. My mom is my safe person and we are very close. What will I do if she passes away? How will I know that I am ok and safe without her? She is the only person I feel completely safe with when I am having a panic attack or if I am sick. These thoughts lead to intens...

There were quite a few who no longer participate often in the forum. I have changed my user name. I was 'cornflower'. Congratul...

I've actually found this website the most help. I love being able to talk to people who are going through the same thing. My cat died a year ago and I was a basket case! I cried for 3 days straight. My fiance has been getting better over the years at realizing when I'm having a panic attack (althoug...

I am no nurse but from what I have read some people can just have elevated liver enzymes for no known reason, hopefully this is your case. I found this info on the mayo clinic, this is not to scare you but to inform you, talk with your doc and ask questions <A HREF="http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/...

That is definitely a factor. Unless you grew up in an area of the country where differing sexual orientaions are widely accepted, you no doubt have some anxiety about it. I am gay and was afraid to talk to anyone about it for the first 27 years of my life. I guess I was afraid that people would not ...

I remember when I was going through my "I think I'm going to hurt someone" phase, I couldn't watch certain things on tv because it gave me more things to be afraid of! I couldn't watch the news or anything. I couldn't say ...

Thanks. . .it's just I was playing 2-3 or 4 hours a night on that game. Then getting up in the morning and checking to see if anyone added anything. Maybe you're right though. I'm allowed to play around. Hubby thinks I shouldn't go there any more for a few days so I make sure it's not the most impor...
