    Treatment team paranoia?

    Sooooo...I’ve got a therapist, dietician and a psychiatrist. I stopped taking meds last fall, then decided I needed to start again a few weeks ago...and added back in the psychiatrist. Now, I’m freaking out over the “team” and their communications with each other, and feel like I’m reading into...

    Self harm question

    Hey guys-it’s been a little over a week since I last cut. Which is actually huge for me. I was super busy last week and didn’t even really think about...fast forward to now and it’s all I can think about. It’s like an itch that needs to be scratched. Relentless. I’ve gone longer than I thought...

    Therapist on vacation...

    I had no idea I depended on my T this much...she's been out of town for 2 weeks and wont be back for another week. I'm in contact via email, but have a weird "tell all, then tell nothing" thing going on. I even annoy myself with this. When things get really bad-I either send an email saying...

    Feeling guilty in therapy?

    So today I finally told T I was feeling guilty that I’d made someone in my family out to be worse than they are. She only responded with-do you think that’s true? And I said-I don’t know.

Of course it’s listed under symptoms but my therapist said it’s not likely caused by the cymbalta...it’s bad enough that I’m considering stopping medication altogether....this is the fourth med that I have tried and...

    Valium not working?

    I was recently prescribed Valium...I didn’t even want to take it, but a few days ago my anxiety was super high, and my panic. So, I took one. It didn’t seem to help at all. Is that really weird or abnormal? I tried one again yesterday-same thing. Did not get any relief.

    Emergency plan?

    Hey all-I started therapy for PTSD about 6 months ago. Childhood stuff camenup (seemingly out of nowhere). Anyway, just this week I was asked to set up a plan of who I would contact if my anxiety level gets to an 8-10. Honestly, I doubt I’d tell anyone. It’s been there before, and I couldn’t...

    How to talk to therapist

    Hey everyone-first time poster, a few month lingerer. I started therapy (for the first time ever) back in February-met with that therapist 4 times and decided it wasn’t working. Met a new therapist in April and have been seeing her weekly since then (except for a couple of times we’ve had 2-3...
