I have an appointment to get anxiety and depression medication that I genuinely need. Which depression and/or anxiety medications are most notable for weight loss? I want to take whatever helps with appetite suppression. PLEASE don’t answer if you don’t have an answer to my question… in other words, please don’t tell me not to take medication for the weight loss. It’s just a fun bonus that I want.
Thanks- I’m also trying to get Adderall but because I need a 4.0.

How do you know that you are having a panic attack? For the last month and a half I have been having dizzy spells and feeling sick to my stomach. The spells would last between 15 to 30 mins. After the spells I would feel really tired and feel tense all over becuase I don’t know when they will come on again. I have had blood work done and next friday I will have and echo done. I have scheduled an appointment with a heart specialist. I will see my doctor on sat July 28 2007 to find out the test results. If I am having a panic attacks is there and kind of medication that I can take to help stop having theses attacks?

Have an appointment with my family practice doctor and I am wondering if i can save a trip by just going to a specialist so i dont get the doctor run-around.

typically where do you get the most help from for anxiety/panic disorder problems ?

I usually get nervous when asked to read or when we’re reading in a group. I get shaky to the point where i can’t control myself and my voice tends to sound different and when I finish reading I feel embarrassed like I don’t want to talk to anybody. I made an appointment to see a psychiatrist, but I can’t see him/her until mid October. Is there a way where I can get a pill for nervousness in the meantime without getting a prescription?

I know appointments with psychiatrists don’t usually last very long since they’re very busy.
What happens if you see a psychiatrist and tell them that you are going to kill yourself ?
Do they have the time to do the paperwork to have someone admitted or will they just give that person another appointment.
There’s this psychiatrist who works at a hospital and I was wondering, since it’s in a hospital and busy, if they just let you go..
Will they just let you go since hospitals are busy and they have other people to see

I know, ask my doctor, I will! But in your experiences, is it ok? I am set to start Birth Control pills next month, Yazmin or Yaz and Anti Anxiety meds at the same time, either Lexapro or Cymbalta (dr said to try one of thos, so I am still researching to see which one I want. I had Effexor but was too afraid to take it, so switching at next appointment.

Any input would be great!

Also do you prefer yazmin or yaz? differences?

Lexapro or Cymbalta? differences?

I’d like to go into Urgent Care after work for my Anxiety Attacks. They always come at night when I try to sleep. Not quite sure why, but I would really like to try to avoid tonights. I’m not sure if it’s really accepted to take them there though. Any idea? I don’t want to wait to make an appointment with my doctor. It could be atleast three weeks.

I finally have health insurance through work and thought I should see a doctor about getting an anti-anxiety prescription.

It’s become second nature to put on fake smiles out in public so I’m afraid the doctor might assume I’m lying just to get some kind of pills. I don’t even talk to family about anything going on with me so I don’t know how to conduct myself at the appointment.

I have an appointment today with a doctor to review my own psychiatric file. I am nervous about what I will see because I have read that psychiatric records hold a lot of negative things about patients.
More specifically, what can i expect the doctor to do-is he going to explain the whole time i read my file? what if i dont want his explanations? how do i know they didnt take some stuff out of the file because it might be too negative?

I have a neurology appointment next week to be evaluated for a possible disorder that is causing my anxiety and panic attacks.

After months of therapy and lab tests, this is the last testing I have to go through.

Has anyone gone through this, and what are the possibilities that it could be neurological?

My dr recently went away to care for his family overseas. Since then, ive played musical drs(not at my request, its the hospital) and this p.a decided to switch up my klonopin with ativan. Its aparently cheaper?!? anyways, the p.a suggested i take the same milligram amount i used to. SHe was kinda in and out with my appointment, didnt explain anything.
Is ativan stronger or weaker then xanax? is it fast acting? are they about the same?

i’m 16 and i’ve been expriancing anxiety and panic attacks since i was 14 and i can’t take anymore..so i’m making an appointment with my doctor and i’m kinda nervous,will it make my anxitey worse?or will it help at all?

Hi,

I am going to the doctor tomorrow. I know that he suspects I have an eating disorder (I am 5’8" and 102lbs, but blame it on my genetics) and so I need to know what he will be watching out for during my appointment!

I know he will ask the obvious questions: are you eating right? are you sleeping right? how much are you exercising? etc but I don’t know what physical symptoms he will look for other than my weight?

Thanks in advance for your help!

The hypertension is controlled with medication. Would it be advisable to go on a low dose of steroids for a short period of time to control chronic inflammation in his bowels? He has an appointment with the doctor coming up soon. I just want all the information i can get before the appointment.

I started doing more Pilates and ab work in the last couple of years as I heard that ab development can affect the back, and it seemed the occurrence of pinched nerves and back spasms subsided for me. I’ve been getting more pinched nerves in my neck recently, perhaps because my ab work subsided a bit. Do you have tips for me so that I avoid them? They really restrict my head movement. I’m 30ish in age.
P.S. I distrust chiropracty. I did have one experience, and it confirmed my fears: The doctor said "next time" he would teach me something, and each next time I went, he would push it until the next appointment. I was price sensitive at the time and was not keen to the shenanigans.
