this is such a sad american trend.
I mean, is so strange anxiety incidence in US is something like 8 times than my country (it's a %rate), and the way to value incidence is counting diagnosis and prescriptions. It's sad you say "I'm going to doctor and I hope he will give me pills". we (europeans-but don't get what I say as an attack) are very astonished by your ease to prescribe psychomeds... I talk as a medicine student, actually attending neurology department. it's a lot about responsability. How can a teenager safely handle psychoactive drugs?... it's sad to hear some of you take painkillers to be less shy, is worse than sharing some friends' ansiolitics to be high... this mentality of artificial relay is a big trap hiding just a huge business. this year prozac had its 20th birthday...20 years of billions of dollars... another sad thing is that this economical trend is extending to europe... it's now sure anxiety can be cured with diet, physical activities, breathing training, and can be caused by metabolic disorders (see hyperthyroidism)... but I understan it's hard to move overweight asses from their computer. much easier getting pills and falling in the cliche "I'm on xanax, like in ellis novels and independent movies!", huh? I just hope your doctor is a good one and not just a prick who receives prescribing-prizes and at least follows your therapy. good luck |

Great post from you and nice to see you around. I totally agree with the above because i have been a sufferer of anxiety attacks in the past. I normally wouldn't like talking about it on an internet forum, but since the subject has been brought up and I am a little susceptible to it, I'd strongly recommend to fight them without the help of medication, as much as it is humanly possible. I was put on very strong medication from the word go, which made me feel drowsy all the time, like I was on heroin. My mother picked up on the fact that it wasn't helping me at all, but in fact it was sending me to outer-space quicker than you can say 'floatingslowly is floatingreallyquickly', so she made me stop taking it altogether and tried other things, like going for walks and not saying a single word, a healthier diet and generally just being a benign presence that looked out for my mental state carefully and lovingly. It is very difficult to assest what might work for different types of anxiety, since attacks vary very much from person to person and are triggered by disparate factors. I'd say that physical exercise is very important, together with a certain respect for your own body and mind, but that sounds like an all too obvious thing to state. Difficult to achieve it when you are a teen and have a fascination with self-destructive imagery, but destructive imagery can only be fun if you watch it from a far out galaxy, not on a daily routine that involves functioning like a human being and not a human wreck. |

Well, do what you like. Don't take this the wrong way, but that will also mean that message boards the world over will have more and more whinging, spineless train wrecks to shout about their relevant, but ultimately more effectively resolvable problems. Ever heard the one about being a man or woman and using your own incredible mechanism of self-defence?

I didn't mean physical self-defence, but mental self-defence. That's a mechanism that we are all equipped with, to varying degrees. You seem to come across like you have a choice, but still want to opt for the most drastic solution to something that could be dealt with more easily than that, and with more lasting positive results. There are cases where medication is not a choice, but a necessity. But that doesn't seem your case, hence the existence of this thread. Don't take this personally because you seem like a nice chap and this is not a personal attack at all. |

Ok, I will spell it out for you more clearly, then. You are very much at an age when it's not uncommon feeling cut out or, erm, alienated by your own surroundings. It is very possible that when you feel awkward you might get the impression that life is shit and you are the only one to know it. But it is not as simple as that, there are millions of teenagers feeling exactly like you do, and an even bigger proportion of adults feeling worse. Choosing to go on meds because of this feeling is not going to turn you into a swan with unbelievable social skills that will be admired and discussed by your peers, no. Perseverance in trying to achieve some peaceful state of mind will do, trying to achieve what your personal goals might be will do, continuosly re-adjusting your being to those surroundings you feel like hating so much will do, and the same for the people who never seem to get you. That is something that isn't weird or unacceptable, it's something that is common occurance for most people since entering teenagehood. Suffocating such feelings with artificial help is not going to resolve much apart from messing up with your head. Unless, of course, the problem is of a different nature altogether. |

i really would try taking ALL the caffeine out of yr diet before you started to take medication, so that you know for sure that it is anxiety you are creating, not anxiety created by drinking a can of coke, or have a morning cup of coffee.

Like Nefeli already said, I seriously hope that you don't take offence about anything that is said on this thread, because we are posting it in your best interest. I have a question, if you feel like answering it: Did the doctor tell you that you are suffering from anxiety attacks or panic attacks? The reason I am asking is because they are two different things, and panic attacks are most definitely treatable without taking meds. |
