She is getting help and is showing a moderate degree of improvement via medication.
not work but school , I was institutionalized for 2 months due to it. A fine establiishment it was too , where they shoot you up with tranquilizers mucho bueno :)
I have anxiety issues but I am not that bad...however there are websites where you can communicate with others like that.
myanxiety.org i think that is the website..
I will say I have anxiety about working which is kinda getting in the way. I haven't had a job since June and now Im afraid I can't do the job or Im scared to do simple things like be a receptionist. I live in fear but what can I do
I was almost crippled because of that some time ago but luckily came out of it quickly enough. If you need help, it is available in several forms and you can try what works best. Can share information if needed.
I am. I started with PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), developed anxiety disorder which then turned into full panic disorder and finally agoraphobia. I have not left my apartment for two years. So, if I can't leave my own front door, I can't work. I have become paralyzed with fear of everything, but mostly of people or the public. If you have anxiety disorder, try your best to get it treated before it gets worse. Best of luck.
Yes, I wouldn't go outside or communicate with people other than who I felt comfortable with (3 yrs+). Lost any kinds of friendships that had been previously established. Lost my kids to my ex-husband, now have to pay child support. I loose all feeling in my extremities when bad. Been to the ER. Tried to take my life. Locked down for 5 days becuse I didn't want to die after I OD'd. Major depressive disorder, but these days, it's normal. Life sucked, and no one could feel the way I do at that point and time.Somtimes, I still think that. I even tried to apply for Social Security Disability for a social anxiety disorder. Government STINKS! Pay taxes and no return when you really need it. I was denied SSI and SSD because I was so embarassed about what was going on in my mind that I could not tell the entire truth upon evaluation. Always, always be honest. One way or the other it pays off in the end, just not with the government. It did make me feel better in the end to be honest to myself and admit what was bothering me. I still can't be in large crowds, but I have to breathe and deal.
