Avatar n tn I currently have postpartum depression and anxiety and am taking medication for this. However, my ruminating thoughts are still haunting me and I wanted to know how I can help cope and heal. Ever since, my baby's birth, I've been having thoughts of being homeless and constantly worrying about this to the point it makes me physically ill and depressed. My psychiatrist says the medication should help with the thoughts and it has in intensity but these thoughts are still there.
Avatar f tn Help for what? Depression, anxiety, substance abuse? There are lots of public health clinics that go off of income and if you have no income you pay nothing at all, and if its substance abuse treatment the same thing. You have to research it, but you will find a lot of low income gov funded clinics and even rehabs.
1592423 tn?1297648762 Kristellk, I don't normally give pause to considerr what others might think of what I have to say, but, I have to say, in this case I did...You see, I'm proud to say today is my 117th day of sobriety, they haven't all been easy, as a matter of fact, there've been a bunch I'd like to do over (I don't much like the one's where I sound like a whiney byach), but the fact is I've done them. I've never gone to a meeting. I've never read a book.
Avatar n tn I'm sorry to hear of what you've been going through. I found some resources for you to use to find some help within your area. Here's some links to low cost mental health services (1) http://fhsid.org/index.
Avatar m tn re not in immediate danger-they also have a lot of resources to help you and suggestions-they might tell you to go to the ER if you are having suicidal thoughts. Good luck and I hope you find a solution soon.
1123227 tn?1259627086 This website is obviously one. I am dealing with certain internal issues that I don't understand and want to know what free resources are there available for me to discover what it is I'm going through. Therapy seems to be the right answer but I can't afford therapy. I'm on a fixed income and would like to know what's out there for me in terms of improving my personal mental health specifically in the realm of anxiety and depression. Thank you.
Avatar f tn Speak to your doctor as they may offer you help. Im in England and we have lots of resources not sure what its like where you live.
Avatar m tn You also have school counselors that can help you with resources too. I know our school has online resources they hook kids up with. And there are psychologists, psychiatrists, your family doctor. These are all resources you can use to feel better. Is your feeling every day or just intermittent?
Avatar f tn I understand what you are going through.. Everyone will tell you to run & don't talk to him, but the bottom line is you are the only one who can make the BEST decisions for your baby & you.. some symptoms of stress is headaches, stomach pains (usually lower toward the pelvis) uncontrollable depression(crying) & terrible dreams which cause bad sleep patterns.. I know 1st hand.. You are both freaking out & scared..
Avatar f tn Treating anxiety and depression in children and teens is VERY tricky, for this exact reason. The very meds that may help a lot of adults have pretty AWFUL effects on the growing, developing person. Even young adults in their 20's can react badly to these meds. MY guess is that is what is causing his suicidal thoughts...it is actually a common side effect. Work CLOSELY with your son's doc....
Avatar f tn We have a new student who is 2 and 1/2 starting Monday. He had Apraxia and I have been frantically searching for info on how to best help him adjust and thrive. We have 17 other toddlers in this room so it is very busy. I have never had a child with Apraxia and would welcome any advice. Thanks!!
Avatar f tn What about other resources? Not just the school resources I mean.
Avatar m tn You are going to feel like **** the next couple of weeks. But just set yourself free if you can't get any scripts anymore. I have been sober now for 27 days and it was hell, but I'm better now. I go back to work tomorrow. I am nervous about it but I have to have some sense of normal. You might want to go to the store. Get, something for diarrhea, something for muscle pain, something to help you sleep. All OTC stuff. If that's all you can do that's all you can do.
Avatar f tn I had post partum depression with my first and I didn't seek help and it was really bad. There are resources for you. Therapy will help during and after pregnancy. Maybe your job offers free resources? It would be worth looking into. Don't suppress it like I did. It will just hurt more in the long run.
Avatar f tn Monday was two weeks on lexapro. Side effects have dissipated . Depression, I don't know, I guess it is better somewhat. I'm back and forth between 5mg and 10mg. I'm becoming a little paranoid after reading how hard it is to come off of the lexapro and I have to take the xanax because I really can't sleep on it. Good thing is there is no more fatigue :) My question is, how afraid of drug addition should I be or should I just worry about that later and get my head together.
Avatar f tn I am guessing that with the holidays around the corner that isn't helping either. Everyone tells us to be happy and singing yet it may be the last thing you want to do...and that makes you feel even worse. Trust me when I say that there are a lot of people on the board with big hearts that are willing to help out when they can. With that said, Can you give a general state and city you might live in or be close to? (DO not give us any street address info..
Avatar f tn I think I have depression. I've taken loads of online tests and they have all said I might have severe depression. I want to get properly tested for it but i'm too embarrassed to ask my mum to take me for an appointment because she will just tell me i'm being stupid. Is there any way i can get tested without her knowing?
Avatar f tn Contact therapists or psychosis to ask them about free resources. That is how I found help for my depresdion.
Avatar f tn It sounds like depression, least some symptoms. There is no way to get rid of it exactly, only manage it. There are medications and therapy, support groups, crisis lines. There are a lot of resources there to help you, you just have to find the courage to use them. My advice would be to talk to someone, family, parents, trusted friend, teacher, school counselor. Someone who will support you because above all else, you need support.
Avatar f tn And get some help because there are a lot of resources out there for moms and babies that find themselves in your situation. There are shelters you can go to with your daughter. Just do it safely when he is not home. I will be praying for you. You'll get through this.
Avatar f tn Usually depression makes us feel this way . I know its an awful feeling but with treatment these feelings get better . Also this site offers some support . Read other peoples experiences in this site too .. And most importantly if u r feeling suicidal please contact suicide prevention helpline and also get professional help .
Avatar f tn It's not uncommon for patients to have depression after a heart attack -- there is some subtle connection between the brain and the heart that is not completely understood. It's also common to feel more weak and tired after a heart attack, and you should be enrolled in cardiac rehab (basically a supervised exercise regimen) for a few weeks to months after a heart attack to help get you back on your feet. Call your primary doctor or cardiologist and see if you can get plugged into this.
