si conShould I go back on the meds for panic attacks and anxiety?
Posted by: | CommentsIm 23 years old and have been diagnosed with panic disorder and GED. I stopped taking my medication almost 5 months ago (was on Paxil 10mg/day since august 2007), and i was doing jsut fine, until i got a really bad cold. My panic attacks came back, and i was anxious all over again…its just such a horrible feeling. I started feeling the numbness in my head again and it freaked me out so made my doctor write me a CT scan, i had one before about a year and a half ago when I got the GED and panic attacks. So now that is freaking me out i regret getting it done again but i just wanted to make sure nothing was wrong in my brain because the feeling just does not go away (stupid i know). the plus side is i can control it better now, but i jsut dont feel like my self, I'm scared of doing things incase i get a panic attack, i try to suck it up and distract my self but the feelign is just there, oh and i start crying out of no where too just because im soo tired of tryinggg (im crying while im typing this). Thefore im thinking about going back on the pills!!! any suggestions of what i should do, should i go back on them and just get my self back to normal and try to tapper of them after I feel better?? i just need someone who has exprience with thsi to give me some advicee!! the doctor was wondering why i decided to get off them to begin with and i was like because i dont want to take pills for the rest of my life. He said that he is going to suggest a therapist for me and someone will call me to set up and appointment and this was a month ago and no calls. So i dont know waht to do, i want to go back on the meds just to feel the relief for a bit!! any advice or suggestion is appreciated, i am desperate for help!!
I've been having panic attacks for 13 yrs! They started when I was 14 and I'm still having them. Like you I've tried to wean myself off of them several times, but I always end up back on them. Some people are helped by therapy, which can teach you different ways to try to handle the panic attacks without drugs. They didn't work for me, but it is worth a shot because many people are helped by them. I read a book that may also help you "Power Over Panic" by Bronwyn Fox. Since your doctor hasn't called you, take charge and make yourself an appointment. Look up therapists in your area, call them up, explain that you have panic attacks and would like couseling on ways to deal with them without drugs and they will make you an appointment with someone that will have knowledge in this area.
Can someone be fired after developing anxiety disorder?
Posted by: | CommentsMy friend developed an anxiety disorder while working at her current company. They have assistance available, and she is taking advantage of that. However, though her immediate boss is working with her to reduce her stress and anxiety at work, the general manager is overriding these methods and making life at work difficult for my friend. She is beginning to think her days at this job are numbered and that she will be fired soon. Is this legal, or is it covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act?
I'm not sure if it is covered but if your friend has already been working there then I don't see how she could get fired. If she did, it seems like a discrimination lawsuit could follow. Especially if the place of employment offers help and she is taking full advantage of that. Only in special circumstances could someone be fired for this.
The best form of treatment is to go to your doctor, get a referral to an expert, tell them everything, and do exactly what they say– opposed to asking on Yahoo! Answers, especially! What is right for one person might not work for you. You need to get a professional, individual diagnoses and treatment plan from an expert. There is no “best” treatment. It simply depends on you, your specific symptoms, and what works best for YOU. You won’t get that on here, I’m afraid.
Good luck!
Bipolar Disorder and medical marijuana?
Posted by: | CommentsDoes anyone have evidence either way that can prove bipolar disorder is effective or not? I don't want your opinions. There's a lot of myths about marijuana. I'd rather evidence. I'm for it. I have bipolar disorder and it's quite effective with minimal side effects, if any. I've haven't smoked for a year and my mood swings have been RIDICULOUS. I was having a manic episode recently for the past month. I couldn't sleep and ANXIETY, lol. After 4 visits with my psychiatrist, with their meds making it worse actually, I decided to smoke some marijuana
Instant relief. Slept like a baby that night.
I already called out one of "Above the Influence's" sources that said marijuana can induce psychosis and/or depression. He admitted that he's most likely wrong. Just thought I'd throw that in there, for all of you who is so quick to say it's horrible : P
I have Bi - Polar and have had multiple hospitalizations being treated for years with a cocktail of pills and injections. I always seemed to end up back in the same spot hearing the same few things from doctor
1. It may take up to 8 weeks before you begin to feel better
2. If it doesn't work we can try something else
The fact of the matter was it took well over two years to find a combination of about 7 different meds a day just to maintain me and I would still end up in the hospital a few times a year.
Then I was forced to move and lost insurance and I began experimenting using Marijuana medically to help alleviate the moods and some issues i had with insomnia and just like you the relief was instant not months to know "if it was going to work" No money wasted on co pays to see if it worked it just worked. I have been vaporizing cannabis to treat the bipolar and insomnia and for me it works. I haven't been admitted into the hospital while using to treat the bipolar nor have I had any of the side affects associated with ambien and "sleep driving" (yes it happened to me)
Just like you I'm not interested in what someones morality is (tell that to the drunk who beats his wife) I am simply interested in what works, what keeps me going from day to day. For me it works

What kind of treatment is there for this?
Posted by: | CommentsMy friend developed a horrible fear of throwing up in public (he doesn't have a fear of puking at home though or in a car, just when he's out in public in front of ppl).. so whenever he goes out to stores or other places, he gets bad panic attacks (nausea, dry mouth, heart races, sweaty palms, excessive swallowing, etc) but when he leaves he feels fine. It all started with a bout of stomach virus 2 months ago.
What kind of treatment would be available?
No Treatment, it will pass, its likes falling off your bike and not wanting to go back on in fear of falling agian. Just give him some time and his fear will go away. Maybe now this might not be the smartest way but get real drunk till the point hes in public (friends house with lots of people or somehting) and throws up, he will realize wow im F'ed up but hey i threw up and everything is cool

Natural Medicine Leads to Real Cures
In contrast, the philosophy of natural medicine holds that a weakened immune system (and/or along with other weakened bodily systems) is the reason foreign invaders can thrive, producing symptoms and diseases.
Most of us are taught that we need to go to medical doctors when we get sick. What we aren’t taught is that the real doctor is already within us as the innate wisdom of the body. This is the difference between conventional allopathic systems and natural holistic medicine systems. The philosophy of natural medicine is that, given the right conditions, the body will heal itself. Whereas the allopathic model tries to control defective body systems through drug intervention, or kill foreign invaders with antibiotics, natural medicine rarely includes toxic agents. Instead, herbs, homeopathic remedies and other non-invasive therapies are used. These techniques harmoniously help facilitate the repair and strengthening of bodily systems (especially the immune system, which can then properly fight foreign invaders), or help to destroy offending pathogens without toxic side effects. The goal of natural medicine is to figure out why systems have weakened and then repair them, which results in healing.
Allopathic Medicine—Symptom/Disease Management
The allopathic medical philosophy taught at most medical schools, and practiced by the majority of medical doctors, relies on the concept of identifying diseases or symptoms, and then prescribing drugs to manage or combat those conditions. It is a system that considers the disease or symptom to be the actual problem, as opposed to addressing the underlying causes that produced the disease or symptom in the first place. A wide variety of tests, procedures and equipment specially designed to identify diseases and symptoms have been developed, which on one level is great, because these tests could be used to help figure out underlying causes. Yet, on another level they are very limiting, since they are rarely used for such purposes. Typically, once a diagnosis is determined, the tests are plunked into the patient’s file as conclusive evidence of his or her condition.
