Common Questions and Answers about Do i need anxiety medication quiz
anxiety
I did some research on some stuff that has been going on with me since I was a child and I strongly think I could be add/adhd. I know that I am no doctor and cannot diagnose myself but every time I bring up testing me for this my psychiatrist just kind of shrugs it off saying that it could be something else and while I do respect that she is more educated in this than me I also do not see the harm in a test.
I was driving today and had a headrush for a few seconds along with shortness of breath. my girlfriend and i just had a kid, but i was experiencing some anxiety before the birth. Why would i have had a head rush and shiortness of breath while driving by myself, im also seeking employment, so i guess there is some stress..
thank you for your response! I do plan on talking with my doctor. I just hate having to go through this! I know part of it is the grief but I have terrible anxiety attached to it. I just hope that it's just the medication and this floaty feeling won't last...or I can be put on something else. But would the zoloft react that quickly? I've just started on it the past 3 nights?
I went to my doc because I wasn't feeling right. Yes, I drink alcohol and I am a diabetic, please don't lecture. Anyway, within less than 18 months, my total cholesterol shot from 180 to 259, my tris are 494 however, right before I went, 20 mins, I had to drink regular pop due to a very very low blood sugar reading, now they told me that drinking the pop would throw off the tri and total.
Where do I start when trying to find out if I am depressed?? I don't mean taking a "quiz". I mean to I talk to my primary doctor, or what do I do? I have mood swings and am very irritable at times. I already know I am co-dependent from therapy sessions that I have been in a few years ago. I do not have money to continue therapy and I need to know what I can do to start feeling better.
Sometimes I just don't feel like anything is worth all this trouble.
I dont know if I am an alcoholic or not. if i do the AA online quiz the it says I am, things like have i missed work because of drink and do i ever had missing memories from teh night before.
my situation is this. I live alone and I never have alcohol in the house. I never drink alone and I never drink in the daytime. I tend to get tipsy quite easily and usually have bad hangovers. I probably go out once or twice a week.
I took a quiz and it said somewhere about 94% positive I was depressed I have also taken a quiz and it said I was bipolar and that I have a mental illness causing me to have multiple personalities. I don't know what to do my mom will just say its hormones and everything but I don't know how much longer I can take this. I don't cut but have thought about it and I have also thought about what people would do if I committed suicide.
It is indeed a chemical imbalance b/c all i want to do is cry. I can barely function when i am in that dark place, yet i do. My face seems to change and it physically takes over me. My mom is begging me to get 'help'---chemical help....but i am really afraid. WHEN i am not in this dark place i am a high functioning member of society--this has happened maybe 3 times in over a year...............THOUGHTS?
do i need a doctor? For the last 2 or so years when i have to go any where in public i get a sick to my stomach feeling and when i actually arrive somewhere my back busts out in a sweat bad and i turn really red for no reason. Its to the point where the only way i can hang out with people is if i am drinking alcohol, it takes my mind off the feeling that everyone is stairing at me or wanting to say bad things about me.
but he says he still cant forget it n does not feel for me the way he used to and i feel his commitment towards me has changed, um shattered cause i know i never meant to hurt him. i dunno wat to do , i feel lonely , i only expected him to understand that i was childish , um not in rite frame of my mind..........
My boyfriend says i need medication the problem is when i want sex i get very but very upset if i don't get it i sometimes have to beg him and if he doesn't comply i get really pissed off sometimes i want to leave him just because he doesn't furfil my sexual needs...
I have also levelled with my wife and she is also very supportive. I am also on anti-anxiety medication. I almost went in for the DNA PCR test but relented due to worries about 'false positives'. I complete a month from this 'exposure' next thursday and am thinking of going in for the Duo. These days of wait are killing me and I am also nervous about the test. Honestly, guys, i know I sound crazy, but some reactions / help from you folks would do wonders.
But therapy takes time and you need something that will help you now. This is why I feel you need to talk to your doctor about an anti-anxiety medication to help you right away so you can function day to day. Xanax is good and taken as needed, and Klonopin is normally prescribed 2 time a day. There are many, these appear to be very popular, but your doctor would know what would be best for you. I would try the Zoloft, it's been around a long time and may just be the right one for you.

Im on medication for depression and anxiety. Also occasionally I have a sedative in case I go bizzercerz. Would that hurt my child more than stress would?
I am guessing I have GAD, my doctor did not tell me what kind of disorder I have.. all I have been told was that I have anxiety. I have this undescribable nervous feeling everyday. Sometimes worse than other days. I also have palpitations which started over 4 months ago and have continued everyday. I do not have bad panic attacks. The extent of mine have been nervousness/shakiness, hot flashes, shivering, etc.
What kind of medication have you been prescribed? I am a proponent of medication combined with talk therapy when dealing with anxiety. Depending on what kind of medication you are on, in my experience, some side effects can stay with you for a little while (i.e, when starting, stopping, or adjusting the dosage of an SSRI). For me, medication is a useful tool when confronting anxiety, but it is not a 'cure all.' We all react differently to medications, and must weigh the pros vs.
I need help deciding what to do. I have been complaining to my doctor for the last few years about hypothyroid symptoms (15 pound weight gain for no reason, cold intolerance, constipation...etc). He said my levels were fine. Then I went to an allergist who called me and said that my thyroid was producing antibodies and that I should have my TSH levels tested again. My other doctor's office called me yesterday and said that my TSH was 4.65, but that my t3 and t4 levels were normal.
This time around with the Paxil, I never had the need to take anything with it. I do have lorezapam (Ativan) in my cabinet, but I haven't needed it. Although I almost took it on my flight home yesterday. We were flying through a thunderstorm! There were and are times I feel anxious but I attributed those feelings to "normal" anxiety. Like having to give a presentation at work.
Right now I feel I can manage my anxiety without taking anything extra.
