    I plan on taking propranolol for my anxiety, good idea?

    Maybe, I have been given so many things and had so many bad reactions I just can’t remember. I have been given beta blockers twice and both times I had sever reactions. Never again for beta blockers.

    What Exercise Did You Do Today

    1 1/2 hour hard bicycle ride. It is windy and the pollen is bad. The whole ride I was having breathing issues and my eyes were stinging and tearing. Now, a couple hours later I am still having breathing issues. The things we endure to try to stay healthy.

    What Exercise Did You Do Today

    I have been out of the country for a bit so my normal exercise routine was interrupted. While traveling I walked a lot. I got home a week ago and I have been riding my bicycle a couple hours everyday. Today I took a rest day from the bike and I walked 1 1/2 hours with Lulu. It really feels...

    I plan on taking propranolol for my anxiety, good idea?

    I support you for posting a med question but be careful following advice. In my experience docs don’t always get what we are going through and other suffers do. At the very least, others sharing their experience identifies issues with the med that you can research on your own. I did try...

    Ask a foreigner

    When in New Zealand as a kid we would all stand in Movie theaters, at horse races and other public events and sing God Save The Queen.

    Other Meaning of the word “trauma”

    For me I think over use of the words trivializes them. Bad things happened to me starting in infancy. I was unaware of the impact upon me as it was all I knew. I believe my responses to life situations did not help so I have unknowingly compounded the problem. It has been a personal journey...

    Other Autism??? - I know many of you have autism and I would like to hear your take.

    I am still waiting for my evaluation referral. For me autism would explain a lot. I have never fit in nor do I have the desire to at this point. For me it is about understanding myself. The world feels like an insane asylum.

    Online Therapy Services --Good? Bad?

    It was all questionnaires and emailed responses. The responses seemed mechanical and I wondered if a human was really involved at all. If it was human, it did seem really uninterested in the process.

    Online Therapy Services --Good? Bad?

    I tried online therapy and I thought it was a waste of time and money. I can’t remember the name of the company but it was really funky. I would fill out endless forms with questions and then I would get a response that made me think a real person wasn’t reading the busy work I was being sent...
