    Hang in there, Hugh.  If you need to wallow, or scream...well, just do what you can in the moment to take care of yourself.

    gambs, I always knew you were insightful, but I think moreso since you've had your kiddo.

    today is a bad day. 
    I hope it gets better for you, HFD.  Hang in there my friend!

    In 2 seconds I found out how you can access free therapy paid by your health service.

    If you are relying on your GP for your mental health ... you'll never get better.  GP's are just that, general practitioners...therapist special in helping you sort out your problems.



    You seem to be assuming that lastexitlondon is completely clueless and has never been to therapy, which is not the case.
    At some point you have to help yourself as well.  Coming to a bands website and constantly saying your not getting help/better is not going to change your situation.  Why keep going to your GP thinking you have dementia when he's saying you don't, yet he is convinced he has dementia.  If he doesn't trust what his dr is saying...why come here and complain. 
    You know, you've got a right to your opinion, but this is not the thread to be doing what you're doing. This is a support thread, and one that's obviously used at least partly as a form of catharsis, not one where it's appropriate for you to question why people are seeking support here and saying they're complaining. Read the mood man.
    And part of support is offering suggestion that might work ... which is why some people reject therapy.  Sitting at your computer complaining will not help you ... well some of you it might help.

    Why do you keep using the word complaining. Describing ones feelings is not complaining. What kind of anxiety was it you overcame?

    Extreme anxiety ... I was suffering debilitating panic attacks for over a year, as many as 2 a week, they never came when I was at home, they always happened when I was out somewhere...I could be at the dog park with my dog in -10 and out of no where it’d always start with profuse sweating followed by slurred speech, uneasiness in my balance, usually followed by severe nausea.

    I was trying all kinds of different pharmaceuticals.  None worked very well, the best was therapy ... a good therapist can get most back on track ... I know mine did.

    I’m not saying therapy works for everybody...but I trust therapy far more than pharmaceuticals.

    i know your in Britain and I have little understanding of your health care system...but I sought my therapist outside of our government system and just paid out of pocket.  Family drs. are not mental health drs...

    I was just offering different suggestions that were given to me and thought they could help others.  I now realize this thread isn’t about getting help.  I will this thread alone.

    No one's attacking anyone dude.  All I'm saying is part of being supportive is also offering suggestions that can reduce anxiety levels.  PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH OFFERING SUGGESTIONS THAT MIGHT HELP.  If you get terminal cancer, do you stay at home and "wallow, wow is me"  behind a computer, or would you look for ways to live longer and healthier...

    My aunt recently passed away from cancer, she lived 6 years after initially being told she would only live about a year...at the suggestions of others she took  marijuana oil  every day and had several cups of dandelion tea a day...lived far longer than her drs ever thought.  And she never entered hospice...now if she ignored these suggestions she might not have lived nearly as long.

    It's the same thing with anxiety...

    I know I've mentioned my recent a few times...but I thought since this Thread is about anxiety I am thinking it's a good Thread to vent..

    You know having your Partner talk to some other Guy about something Personal and important behind your back and not you...This was the same Guy she was messaging while we trying to have romantic time together...Also is the same Guy she bought a Birthday Present for on the day of his Birthday and yet I didn't get mine until a week after my Birthday...

    Anxiety inducing or what...

    I think you can't get this out of your head. Its going round and round. That is horrible and eats up your life . All consuming. Ive been told im the same once i get something troubing me i can function . Mine is health issues but it works yhe same for emotional situations. I had one with my dad that ruined me.  There probably is nothing that makes it go away
     I hope younmeet someone kind and thoughtful to gradually move forward.

    In essence i don't mind how many times you need to post. Help yourself . I tend to post similar things. I bore a lot of people with my persistent health fears. They have no answers and get fed up with me. But i can only be me. I can only try every day and when that doesn't help i type or speak.
