I used to be the same way also.. When my anxiety peaked I cried 3-4 times a day ... felt like I was loosing my mind I would cry so much that I feel asleep of beeing so drained. I'm the type of person who only cries at funeral this wall all new to me but now taking paxil which has taken my anxiety level down and is helping also this program is a blessing I feel with both you can't go anywhere but up. When you need to cry it's good it liberates emotions you need to get them out don't worry it will get better just keep holding on

It is comforting to know that I'm not weird and that other people have the crying spells also. I am taking 10 mg of abilify, 300 mg of Welbutrin SR, and 600 mg of lamictal (I think that is what I am taking). I used to take prozac and that seemed to keep me stable, but I went off of it because I didn't like the sexual side effects. Unfortunately, all medications come with possible side effects. I am on session #2 right now. I am really going to work with the program, because I want to get better already. I've felt weepy, sad, depressed and anxious for too long now. Years of anxiety and depression. The anxiety right now is keeping me from trying to find a job right now. I am 24 and being helped by my father and I am also on disability for my major depression. I gotta push myself through the fear and really follow and work with the program 'cause I want to heal.

Honey, you're not alone. I don't think I'm the only man on these boards who understands you either. One thing I'm certain of is that there are a lot of good people out there.

You're crying because of the lies that the condition makes you tell to yourself. Keep writing down your negative thoughts and at the end of the each day, you'll be that much better at recognizing the lies.
Before bed, you can go through as many of the negatives as you can and create a positive for each one.

This is how the healing started with me. That was the very first thing that made a dramatic difference for me.

Keep us posted on how you're doing.
