i’m in college and i wanted to know if i should tell my professors about my panic disorder and anxiety disorder and wear a alert bracelet
should i tell the counseling center at my college)??
i also have a history of seizures too. i’m only 20 and i feel so bad for having this so young. so what do you think i should do about this?
i live in constant fear of my next breakdown,panic attack,and seizure and it keeps me in fear and it makes my anxiety worse especially in class

See, I have random drug screens for a OWVI I recently had. I have no trouble abstaining from alcohol, but I have an anxiety disorder and post-traumatic stress and its overwhelming. do they usually do blood tests for substances such as Klonopin or is just the standard drugs (cocaine, weed, etc) they test for?
thanks
maybe its a pain in the arse with school work and everything else to see a doctor

What kind of doctor should I visit if I think I have an anxiety disorder? I’ve done research online of anxiety symptoms and even taken a test to determine whether or not (not professionally of course) I may or may not have anxiety. I have many symptoms and the test said I may have an unhealthy amount of anxiety. Now, I want to take the next step. Who do I visit to help me with this disorder/ possibly get me medication? A psychiatrist?

I am 13 and have have two panic attacks. i havent gone to the doctor but their is anxiety disorder in my mums past. I had my first panic attack when i had a needle, and the second when i flew off fast scooter. i dont know how to deal with the attacks and my mum dosnt help, all she says is calm down and acts as if im embarrising. i htink she thinks im exagerating over little things. but when it happends its out of my control i cant stop shaking and hyperventilating, my hands freeze up and i had severe tingling in my face and a very pale face.Mum dosnt want to take me to the doctor or buy any medications. i agree with her when she says she dosnt want me on any strong perscribed drugs. she dosnt want to spend lots of money taking me to phyciatrists or phycologists(im not sure which one) but i want to get better. any advice. please give me good answers im realy stressed about it all

I was diagnosed with chronic anxiety disorder. my doctor prescribed me medication. I picked up the prescription this afternoon….but should I start taking it today or wait until tomorrow? I plan on taking it every morning because I know it’s the only time of the day I’d remember to take it. I don’t want to take it now (in the early evening) if I’m going to take it again less than 24 hours later. I’m supposed to take it once a day.

I am wondering what a full psychiatric work-up can include? I have been diagnosed twice with an anxiety disorder in my life, once when I was 22 years old, and also when I was 33 more recently. I am so worried that the psychiatrist missed something. I am so scared to go off of the deep end, and become seriously mentally ill. How many psychiatrists should one see before an accurate diagnosis is made, and also what does a full psychiatric workup include?

I’ve had an anxiety disorder for about one year and i was wondering if smoking weed had anything to cause this.

Recently I have started to notice that before I fall asleep, I have to turn on the fan in my room. It has to be on high, it has to be pointed directly on me and it has to be really loud. (which is why I use a portable fan.) about a week ago, I accidentally fell asleep with the fan off, and at about 3 in the morning, I woke up literally screaming of a nightmare. I’ve come to The realization that I literally need it on, but i was wondering if it could be OCD or some sort of an anxiety disorder. Please help! Thanks!

I’ve notice since I’m no longer on meds for my anxiety disorder, I notice that I have been less social. not confident nor happy. feeling miserable. like I’m missing a lot in life not doing anything with it. and I’m about to turn 20. I tried to be social, but it feels uncomfortable. I talk for a few seconds then stop and feel like a lame ass. I know I have crazy fun side in me, but feel like this anxiety is not letting me show it. it’s holding me back. I need to know if there’s any way to be more social, and if it;s possible to deal with it without any help form a physician. I don’t have a job right now and. I don’t have that much money. like 1,248 dollars to be exact. I don’t want to spend money on treatment if I don’t have money. any advice???

I was diagnosed with social anxiety and I am filling out this health questionnaire for college. One of the questions it asks is if I’ve ever been diagnosed with a panic disorder. Is social anxiety a panic disorder? or just an anxiety disorder?

If you take these meds and feel better, happier, calmer, more rationable and feel like a reasonable human being, does that mean that you definitely have either an anxiety disorder or a depression disorder of some sorts that is underlying?

I seem to be very irritable and depressed and anxious and can’t concentrate very well that seemed to have increased with my age, and then I started taking some ativan, and 5-htp. In time I noticed my mood lift and generally I just felt alot better.

So, does that mean that since I’m a responder, that I do have anxiety and depression?

Also, if a "normal" person took these, would they notice any differences? thanks.

I’m diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. But, to help me cope with my anxiety/fears I use routines that (according to my pschiatrist) border on obsessive compulsive. But, I also am atleast somewhat depressd (it kind of fluctuates from really lethargic to really really anxious) But I know OCD comes from too much serotonin and depression comes from too little. So is it possible to have both?!

what medicine should you take for anxiety disorder? and can you take it for a long time or just a short period of time. also do you take it everyday or only when you have panic attacks?

I am hoping to expand my family, I have one child and would love to have a couple more. The problem is that I have been taking Paxil Cr and Klonopin to treat my anxiety (I’m not talking stress, I have a diagnosed anxiety disorder) Is there any one out there who has taken any kind of anxiety medication during pregnancy or know of anxiety medication that is considered safe during pregnancy. I went off the paxil and klonopin when I was pregnant with my son and it was unable to function. I have a 3 year old at this point and I have to be stable for him so not treating my anxiety really isn’t an option. I see a therapist, but I only fully feel good when I am on anti-anxiety medication. Thanks in advance for any responses

They have all the symptoms of a severe anxiety disorder but doesn’t want to see a Dr. I said it would probably be best to do that but they won’t listen. They tried home remedies but they just get worse. What should they do?
