I'm right where you are in figuring out things, I think, Sir! I'm studying "Shame" and how it relates to my childhood. I think you might be in the same boat perhaps? I've been listening to tons of audio books, and moving on from Anger management to Shame. I'm on a really good book, I guess...
Thank you Stacy for your input! Very good advice. I've been much more cognitive of my other "quirks" and symptoms now that ive finally been diagnosed, so maybe I can try my new cognitive skills on when I get angry. I'm learning. I need to learn what to do when it's about to boil over. It...
Thanks, Namenotdiagnosis, I appreciate your input. It helps to know of others having the same problem. I just bought 5 books on Anger management, and I think my T may help me find some group therapy maybe, we'll see. I'll let you know if anything helps. me. Best wishes
I've been tackling my issues with anxiety and the physical aspects of PTSD the past 4 months or so, and now I want to address my outbursts of "rage". I'm sure i'm not alone in that I have rage when I experience anger. Has anyone had benefit from anger management therapy having PTSD? We're not...
I'm now trying zoloft and wellbutrin together in place of the prozac. So far,so good. watching for side effects. Prozac had a sexual side effect that I just cant live with, so i'm hoping it fades as the prozac works itself out. Or maybe I'll be stuck with the same side effect with zoloft. If...

That could be so, but now i'm on meds, I have peace for the most part, and now have pretty obvious attacks that i learned how to breath through, so im making it.
I'm on 20 mg(still think its too low) of prozac, Angel. Started on 10, but felt I needed more...the sexual side effect is a deal breaker, so just got back from the doc and trying wellbutrin and zoloft. I can understand apprehension for meds, but ive been suffering so long and now that someone...
It wasn't until I started prozac about 2 months after diagnosis that I think I may have broken a permanent panic attack. I've never not felt light a heavy weight is on my chest, and a tickle down my spine like falling. It wasn't until about a month after starting the prozac that it kinda...
Update: Since last message, doubled the prozac to 20 mg, guanfacine at 3 mg, (4 is max for my weight). I can now feel the anxiety just underneith. Like panic attach just wanting to break the surface. I never recognized panic attacks before because apparently Ive been in a perpetual state of...
