Does hypnotherapy work?
My mom is making me do it for my depression and eating disorders. is it a waste of time and money or did it actually work for you?
Natural treatment for anxiety symptoms and panic attacks.

i think whats been going on with me are anxiety attacks. and my mom wants to take me to get a physical to see if i do o_O. i dont understand how a physical can tell me if i do have anxiety attacks or not. can you explain?
I know i have anxiety and depression even though I have never been actually diagnosed. I lost my mom when i was 13 yo and after had some major changes in life. I am now in my 20’s, married, with a good job but I still suffer from depression. Some days I get really in the dumps like when my husband and I disagree. Just wondering how other people deal with these problems with out taken meds.
My mom got me a Nightmare Before Christmas light box for christmas. She bought it from Spencers. Everytime I turn it on the light flickers before coming on. I’m not sure if its supposed to do that or if it has a short in it or something. Does anyone have one? I tried lookin it up online but couldnt find anything about it. The box doesnt say anything about it and the only piece of paper that it came with was talking about how to mount it to your wall. My mom lost the receipt and I’m not sure if theyd take it back.
My mom says we don’t have enough money for me to go to therapy right now, but I have been making enough so I think I can pay for it myself. Does anyone have an estimate from previously having gone through physical therapy? Thanks
I’m trying to lose weight and lower cholestoral at the same time so I’ve switched my diet drastically to mostly apples, celery, orange juice, cheerios, and things of that nature. However my anxiety seems to be getting worse and I tend to freak out more about health and other things (last night I couldn’t go to sleep till 7 AM). My mom says it’s because I’m weak and wait too long between meals (usually seven to twelve hours). Is my diet also a contributing factor?
I think I have social anxiety. I was always a quiet person in school. But since 6th grade I hate going because people would always make fun of my weight and how I looked old for my age. I have all the symptoms of social anxiety.
Making a long story short, later today I have ninth grade orientation from 6pm to 8 pm. Its almost 6 am now and I cant sleep. My days and nights are mixed up also. I fear going to the orientation because of all the people that will be there and my parents will there too. My dad is old and my mom is young. My dad is old and my mom is fat. I think people will judge that lol.
I havent even got a letter from the school about the orientation either. I found this out from the school website. Should my parents call the office later today and find out whats up?
Also how can I not worry? I hate the thoughts of going but I need my schedule and need to know where all my classes are lol.
Are they kids any mature than junior high? Like a little more mature?
I’m ready to deal with what happened to me in the past. The thing is tho that my dad doesn’t know what happened to me as a child. My mom does tho and I’m not ready to tell my dad.
How do I even bring up the subject that I want to go to therapy?
I’m a 17 yr. old college student if that matters at all.
I can’t just go to a therapist on my own…money is an issue.
I am researching products to help my mom who is now ling in Alaska where the days are getting much shorter. I’m specifically interested in opinions about artificial light and ionic therapy. Has anyone ever bought or used the NatureBright SunTouch PLUS Light & Ion Therapy Lamp. It kinda pricey and I’d like to get some feed back or if you can recommend a good or better idea. My mom will not take OC or Rx’s .
Thanks for reading and answering.
I’ve been home since my 6 mos. old daughter was born and I’m going back to work part-time at the end of August. I am a teacher and will be working Thurs., Fri., and every other Wed. It’s a good schedule and I have a great babysitter - my mom. The issue is my daughter already exhibits some separation anxiety when I leave her alone with my mom now. She doesn’t have such bad anxiety that she gets upset when I walk away for a few minutes, but she does get especially upset if she’s soothed for a nap or is fed a bottle from someone other then myself or my husband. I know it will be especially hard at first, but will it get better with time? Is there something I can do to help reduce the anxiety?
What are the signs of anxiety? I mean what signs should I look for in my mom. The doctor diagnosed her with anxiety
What are the signs of anxiety? Can one feel anxious and become critical of loved ones? Would the person feeling anxious say and do nasty things to others.
I am asking because of my mom and the things she has said and done to me. I feel so unrelaxed in my own bedroom.
My brother very obviously has social anxiety disorder but my mom refuses to take him to a psychologist, although I seriously insist on doing so. She’s quite adamant. He doesn’t have a school counselor that can help him, so is there anything we can do? He’s 13, I’m 16, and I can’t drive yet, but is there anything else I can do? Are there any books I can help him? His social anxiety seems to be ruining his life.
How can I speak to a doctor–I haven’t any money. I thought you had to pay for a doctor’s appointment. If I’m wrong, well excuse me. lol.
I’m pretty sure I need to be on something for it because no matter what I do I can’t shake it and for the past two years, since I graduated from high school and have had alot more responsibility, it seems to keep getting worse and worse. So now, how do I make a doctor’s appointment? Does it matter what doctor’s office I call? I am 19 but my Mom takes me to a place called Promed whenever I need a physical or get sick so does that mean I can just call them up and say I need to set up an appointment or is there anything I need to do? We don’t have insurance and I don’t want my parents to find out about this since they would tell me that every ounce of my money needs to go to paying back college loans…. any advice would be helpful. Thanks!
Well I’ve had anxiety attacks since I was in 5th grade, and Im about to be a junior in high school. I use to have them when I was on the 2nd story at school (scared of heights) but.. now its different, im not sure what causes this, but, sometimes at school, When the teacher is talking (or any other situation like this) and I don’t want to interupt b/c i’ll get embarrased. I feel like I could throw up.. and im guess its b/c im scared of throwing up in front of ppl..so in situations I’ll be like Omg, what if throw up in front of everyone, its like I don’t want to have to get up or ask to go to the bathroom b/c i’ll get embarrased. I only get anxiety attacks when theres alot of ppl around or I don’t want to have to ask to go anywhere b/c it would be awkward..like suppose I feel like that, and do ask to go to the bathroom.. then come back feel the same way, and ask to go to the bathroom again, they’ll just be like is she ok?? I want to get on pills to help me b/c I HATE IT.
My mom thinks im too young for pills. and my doctor says i just have to learn to overcome it.. i mean i’ve tried to but its been sine 5th grade.. I have learned to control it somehow..but i mean i need some more help.
My mom says its all in my head but my health anxiety feels very real and it makes me feel like something its wrong. How to tell her please help my head hurts and i cant stand to feel like this any more.
