What are your experiences with Klonopin? I’m nervous to try, and that’s an understatement.

So my employer failed to meet four of my accommodations within a seven day period, resulting in a panic attack for me in front of my colleagues. What would you do?

I. FINALLY. Did. It!!! After 8 years of harassment, I filed a harassment claim against my employer. Finally feeling empowered

I had an event last week that required me to meet with HR and consequently, I had a panic attack. I just can’t seem to get over this in seven days. Rumination?? I don’t know what it is ? suggestions? Help?!!

I have been doing CBT for 3.5 years, and of course, this year has presented various challenges-for all of us- due to the pandemic. To that end, in the one session I have had with my T since the start of 2021, he explained how busy his practice is as a result of the challenges presented by the...

I get it. . . The economy needs to get going again. But schools re-opening? We are going to sacrifice our children's lives and put our teachers- who already earn peanuts- on the frontlines? As a teacher and parent, I cannot fathom. I'd rather be jobless. So much anxiety over this

I finally shared with T that I use alcohol to numb. Couldn't bring myself to do so in person, so I emailed him. I can't fathom his disappointment that I see him so regularly but have never come clean

My job defines me. And BTW, I HATE my job. For the numerous reasons my employer has wronged me- despite my efforts to (and evidence to prove that I'm doing well,) succeed- I can't move forward. I feel perpetually 'stuck' in a frame of uselessness-or helplessness- despite my accomplishments. How...

I feel like I have been making progress processing my trauma, albeit VERY slowly. I attend therapy regularly and am off of work at the moment, on as good headspace. That's why, when hit with a panic attack - one with no obvious recognizable triggers- that paralyzed me today, I'm so damn...

Today is the third anniversary of the MVA that changed my life in so many ways, resulting in continuing medical care and a diagnosis of GAD with panic, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. And while I'm especially grateful to be alive, I cant seem to move past the accident, despite trauma therapy...

So I was at a meeting at my work delivered by the Emergency Team, and was told that since we were going to discuss workplace shootings, those employees with PTSD should feel free to leave to avoid discomfort. Ummmmm. . . Am I being overly reactive if I felt like mentioning that SPECIFIC...

In a time when most employers tread carefully around ADA, as many of you already know, mine does not. ? In fact, if they weren't so ignorant of the law and in what they say they are doing is legal, I would be more inclined to let it go. I'm tired of having to "prove" PTSD is a disability

Does anybody just not want to do this anymore? ANY of it?

I have some friends who loosely use language -usually associated with work, mind you- that, in my mind, mocks PTSD (ie: "It's nice to not feel sheer panic about having to go to work tomorrow. I still have PTSD over it"). This person HAS NOT been diagnosed, and while I do think I have thick...

Long story short. Was diagnosed with PTSD in 2017 and took an FMLA leave from work (6 weeks) that year to work through things. Fast forward to now. I understand the interactive process under the ADA, but since my 'disability ' has already been established, can my employer contact my doctor...
