It’s ok to fail! The best part is that you’re trying. The only thing you can do is try. It’s a big step that you even tried!!!

Actually I’m a practicing Greek Orthodox Christian and just came back from Bible camp. I’m not an atheist, I just doubt my faith sometimes. You’re not alone.

People on this forum are here for you. I CARE ABOUT YOU! A person who has never spoken to you CARES ABOUT YOU!!!! People who you may never meet CARE ABOUT YOU!!!! You’re not alone in this battle! None of this is your fault.

Let me emphasize that your illness is NOBODY’S FAULT! Not yours, nor your parents. You got it by a cruel stroke of fate. Your parents would never have wished this on you. You haven’t allowed anything to get out of control, it’s an illness and just like the flu, you can’t control it.

Yay! Hope it keeps working!

The only thing that kept me from killing myself was the knowledge that it would wreck so many other people’s lives. Your family and friends would be devastated. It would be selfish for me to do that to them. As much as I wanted to die, I couldn’t wreck their lives. Depression will always be with...

Yes! I was on lexapro for a while at max dosage. Worked really well for my depression and my suicidal thoughts ceased to a stop. I just switched to Zoloft to treat my ocd and my depression is creeping back in. C’mon, you gave me severe gad, depression, and now OCD? Fate is a cruel mistress. I...

I see a therapist every other week and am 100% open with them. I saw the psychiatrist once with a list of everything I wanted to mention before I was prescribed Zoloft. My therapist and psychiatrist talk frequently. I don’t think it’s working :(

* titrating

I haven’t been on Prozac. I was on lexapro at max dosage for a while. I have been on Zoloft for 8 weeks? We have been titriating up slowly.

It’s just making me upset because I felt the old meds I was on helped more but I couldn’t deal with the OCD that the meds didn’t help.

I’m so anxious right now, ive never done this before. A little backstory on me, I’ve been suffering with GAD my entire life. From the time I was little, I was anxious. I even started showing physical symptoms (super painful stomach aches) from as early as second grade. This has all led to me...

Depression sucks. My issues with anxiety, ocd, and depression i completely understand the “fake” portion of depression. I feel like everything is a show. I can’t feel anything anymore, it’s all artificial. I also often wonder why it had to be me that inherited this. All my siblings are...

I hope it gets better for you! Counseling is really great and I hope it helps you out! You can talk to me whenever you like!

Hey doll! Don’t be nervous! Lexapro is a great medication and really helped me in the beginning of my anxiety/depression/ocd journey. Hope it works! :)

Hi everyone! I just joined today and am super excited to be on such a great forum! I really need people in a similar situation to talk to because I feel like a freak in my school and family. I have severe generalized anxiety, depression, and OCD. I’m really excited to meet some new people who...

I feel the exact same way!!! I hate being watched and I always feel like everyone is staring at me too. When I very first started therapy for anxiety, my therapist taught me this tapping routine and I had to rate my anxiety before and after. My anxiety was higher after then it was before I...

You’re not alone! It’s the complete opposite for me! Everyone I know is dedicated to their faith, but I’m not so sure. They are so many people out there who believe in what you do, you just gotta find them! :)
