Dhampir Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 As it says. Far as I'm concerned, the "IF" has been mostly ruled out, it is only the "WHAT" that has to be determined. I'm scared. As scared as I've ever been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As scared as I've ever been. any detail or is this a guessing thread? What are you sick with? Why are you scared? Peopl get sick and well everyday? Are you terminal? If you are terminal I would spend less time here and more time jamming life in if you are getting less than your fair measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kolaida Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 From what I read, sounds like it could be anxiety and depression, only on a very severe scale and not improving even with medications and therapy. I worry what people are thinking and planning around me, too. I try to remind myself that I only have control over my thoughts and actions and that I cannot fall into the "should" thinking pattern-- they "should" do this or that because then I'm setting myself up. But it IS hard. I've thought many times of seeking out an SSRI because sometimes it feels like my thoughts are on constant loops. I've been to talk therapy off and on over the past year and a half and will probably seek some more. But I am sad to hear that the medication hasn't improved your situation any. (I don't know if I'm actually right. Was just worried and checked some of your previous posts to try to get some idea of what was going on since I've seen you around here pretty often).

Hang in there! I'm sorry, I actually meant something completely separate from the anxiety and depression, which btw, aren't helping things.

I just wanted you to know that my thoughts are with you and my fingers are crossed for a good outcome. Please keep us posted...*hug* 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seeker001 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Please take care of yourself, and, as Margee said, if you don't want to share the specifics that is ok. Just let us know how you are doing, you have plenty of support here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenaissanceWoman Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 ... I've thought many times of seeking out an SSRI because sometimes it feels like my thoughts are on constant loops. I've been to talk therapy off and on over the past year and a half and will probably seek some more... Please look into an SNRI instead. Fewer bad effects, more side benefits. That's been my experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhampir Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 pathology has thus far been ruled out, although it seemed like a rather quick dismissal. not bad news so far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karhoof Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Woa! Ireally hate to hear there's bad news in the wind. pathology has thus far been ruled out, although it seemed like a rather quick dismissal. not bad news so far. Get a second opinion. Even if it isn't what you want to hear, at least you'll know better what you're dealing with. Seriously, keep us posted and try to relax until you know everything that can be know about it.
