i’m trying to help my mom. over the holiday, her computer broke. i was fixing it (and i knew i’d be able to fix it, it would just take time) but she got SO STRESSED out it was extremely unrealistic. she was extremely agitated and kept saying that it was stressing her out so badly she felt sick and couldn’t relax. she was agitated for the 3 hours that it took me and said she couldn’t handle the stress of it happening again.
sometimes she gets like this. she just doesn’t know how to deal with stress at all. is this considered an anxiety disorder? she isn’t generally anxious and doesn’t have difficulty sleeping or have the major symptoms of full blown attacks. if not, what would it be called, just not handling stress well? what is a good way to help her? any good books about this? thank you!
hi, i will clarify: my mom really had no reason to be stressed out. she barely uses the internet and has dial up. they basically check email and she has access to that every day at her office anyway. that’s what was so strange about it!

Kevin T asked:


I’ve always wondered if i had some sort of anxiety disorder. I’m 16 and have major trouble with social situations. Found a site with symptoms of social anxiety disorder:

Excessive fear of public speaking

Avoidance of social situations

Extreme fear of being judged or embarrassed

Blushing, sweating, shaking, pounding heart

Extreme discomfort with dating

Panic attack

Heart palpitations

Difficulty breathing

Feeling disoriented

Feeling loss of control

Dizziness or feeling faint

Compulsion to escape

I have all these symptoms.

I still haven’t seen a doctor for this yet.

Social life ***** for me. I can barely look a girl in the eye let alone date. And right now I’m taking a class during summer school. Only three other students in the class, all of which i know. And I get nervous there. I always try to avoid going to peoples houses or if i am at one and they want to go to their friends house and want me to join, I try to make an excuse. Also recently I started taking meds for adhd, but have noticed these symptoms FAR before then. Though it seems the meds kind of increase my social awkwardness. I really want to see a doctor and maybe get something prepscribed. I still want to take my ADHD meds. So if anyone knows of a anxiety medication that doesnt react with my other meds, please tell me. I am currently taking Concerta 36mg
UPDATE: The only problem I have getting treatment, is money. I don’t even know, if i were prepscribed meds, my parents would be able to afford them.

I’m 13-years-old, hmmm i guess it sounds weird, but i am extremely afraid of death. i’ve only had anxiety a few times, so i don’t think i have depression or other symptoms. i’m not scared of the fact of how i’m gonna die, but just thinking of the end of life terrorizes me. actually, my first anxiety attack was when i was like 10 or 11 so i’ve feared death for a while now

help? any advice? thanks

Thank for trying to help me.

Here’s my background info: I’m 34, I live with my parents, no wife or kids, have a part-time job, and have 2,000 in credit card debt that I’m trying to pay off within the next two months.

O.K., here’s what’s been going on in my life:
Everything was going fine until about two months ago. Some unexpected expenses had to be paid, and the only money I had to pay with were my credit cards. The debt has been slowly increasing. Then, just as I started a new job that I got last month, some moderate anxiety/depression/quasi-panic attack symptoms began appearing. Since then, I’ve become increasingly paranoid about most everything. My sleep is awful now, which intensifies my anxiety during the day.

Then, I went to my dentist to have a simple chipped molar bonded. She insisted upon filling the tooth, and during the procedure she ground too much off of my lower-left molars, which has caused my teeth to not fit correctly. As a result, I have been having severe TMJ (TMD) jaw and ****** pain, and I cannot eat many of the things I did a mere few weeks ago. I recently went back to the dentist because the pain was so bad, and told her that I needed to have an adjustment made on the teeth, and that I suspected that the misalignment was causing the symptoms of TMJ and the ****** pain. This dentist said that there was nothing that could be done, and that she didn’t see anything wrong. However, when the dentist had me bite down on the colored paper in order to see where the teeth were hitting one another, the upper and lower teeth were not touching where I suspect she ground too much during the procedure. I was given a prescription for Soma and Vicoden, and told
that I could be referred to one of the dentist’s colleagues for a second evaluation.

Distraught, I took the advice of my former orthodontist, went back to the dentist to request an adjustment on my teeth, and after getting nowhere with the dentist who botched the work, I went to a lawyer who represented me several years ago. After telling him about the pain that I have been in and how the dentist screwed up, he then casually mentions that one of his best friends is the spouse of this dentist, and that my chances of winning such a lawsuit were not very good simply because the burden of proof would be too high, and that the legal fees for such a case would be too expensive.

So now my damn teeth no longer feel right and my jaw hurts, and it appears that i have screwed up by going to the wrong lawyer!

I feel anxious and uncomfortable all of the time. I can’t see how I can continue feeling like this anymore. Could you please offer me some advice. I don’t know how to deal with it, and have prayed about it so many times. I do not know what else to do, and feel like I am losing my sanity.

I know that numerous people, especially strangers, have been looking at me like I am crazy lately. They look at me like I’m a freak. All of this is driving me crazy. I wish that none of this crap was happening to me right now – - that I could simply turn back the clock four months ago, and start over again.

All the best.

J asked:


Everywhere I go I just feel self-conscious and my head really hurts, and I’m just plain uncomfortable. But people say I’m not awkward because then I’d be like *start doing a hunchback of notre dame impression*. Ok so, even if I am normal and not awkward, I still feel it – I feel so horrid I just want to kill myself. It has caused (since being a teenager and I’m currently 17) so much psychological pain it’s unbelievable and I have a burning hatred for myself.

Well, anyway, I know how I act – quiet. I’m just quiet and make no friends due to that. No one notices me at college despite working in a band as the drummer. I also blew every mind in the college when I performed by playing with my teeth in the theatre, but that just goes to show that people only notice my musical talent.

I’m sweet, polite and humble – in other words, a sad loner. This causes suicidal tendencies. I wish I was ordinary. That way, I will have a chance at having a girlfriend, and one day a wife and kids.

Even if I am normal, I still feel terrible everywhere I go. Can I cure this mental awkwardness that no one else has? Or am I just, like some people (e.g. Michael Jackson, Gandhi, Bin Laden……..), a sleepy, quiet and introverted sweetheart, as opposed to your ordinary fun-loving manly hunk you are willing to lose your virginity to?
QUESTION: What is it and can it be cured?

Praying For a Baby BOY! asked:


Ok so I am 23 years old. I am a wife and a mommy. Well for years I have suffered with anxiety but is has seemed like it has gotten worse this year like since Jan. 09.

I wake up at night with it and I have it sometimes in the morning when I wake up and I will think that something is wrong with me. After I work out I even have one sometimes and I will be thinking “Did I workout too hard” or “Am I having a heart attack”. It is always like I am in extreme fear when I have having an attack.

I am not even sure what to do. It has interfered in my normal life one too many times. I will be scared to get out and walk somewhere sometimes like a store or mall because I will have a fear that I am going to pass out.

I wake up sometime and i feel really dizzy and I will seriously think something is wrong with me. My husband called 911 one day and they said that my heart rate was 170. I am so worried and i am not sure how to deal with this.

I don’t want to be put on medication and be “drugged up” all the time. It seems like when I am having one that my biggest worry and fear is that I am dying and that something is really wrong with me.

I am so miserable. I never want to live like this anymore. It is hurting me so bad. I am tired of being scared and heart pounding and fear over nothing. And then when it is all over I feel fine and I am like “When I have another one I will takle it” & then when the other one comes it is like a new symptom and I get more worried than I was with the last one.

I went to the ER a few time and they have done thousands of $ in test like medical test like on my kidneys,liver,heart and blood test and medically they said that everything is fine. I even had blurred vision one day and I was certain that was a heart attack.

Please if someone has been through this tell me how you dealt with this. I need to know how to cure this before I really lose my mind:)

Thanks so much for reading my story=)

debon.alana asked:


In Highschool I was very outgoing. I liked to joke around and was probably kind of mean in someways. I was comfortable with myself. I didn’t have a problem interacting with people I didn’t know very well at all. I really didn’t care too much what others thought.

Now, nearing 10 years later I find myself the opposite. I am too focused on not looking/sounding stupid that my attention goes to myself which ultimately makes me do rather “air-headish” things and sound like an airhead (perhaps I really am but I doubt to this extent). I don’t like to be in crowds or in social settings where everyone knows each other and I am the stranger. I am pretty sure my social skills have eroded because of this as well.

Basically, I am watching everything I do and looking at how others will see it and how they are reacting. Thats my main focus while everything around me is a lesser priority. I can’t figure out a way to stop this.

Sometimes it doesn’t bother me at all but for the most part it does. There are a lot of other details that I can provide if anyone needs but I am just looking for anyone that has dealt with this personally or knows someone close that has dealt with this. Basically for any information regarding it and how to deal, beat, cure, etc it.

I would like to avoid medications if possible but I realize it is a strong possibility. I imagine I am only truly myself a very small fraction of the time in anyone else’s presence.

Appel asked:


It has been explained to me that people with depression and anxiety (like me) have some type of chemical (serotonin) imbalance in thier brain. And just like people with diabetes need insulin, people with depression and anxiety need SSRIs.

Does this mean it is impossible to help depression and anxiety without medication?
What do you think of therapists who think SSRIs are the only form of treatment?
