hi guys, just stumbled across this site whilst browsing the internet and thought it would be a good idea to become a member as I have never really spoken to anyone before about anything. I have recently been diagnosed with general anxiety disorder and been put on medication, i am also awaiting counciling (but this is taking a lot longer than I expected...) I am 23, female and live in the UK.
My parents split up when I was 10 and went through a horrific divorce resulting in my dads arrest, restraining orders, and general mental abuse etc... to be honest though I dont like to put any type of blame on why I am like I am but it seems to be the reason doctors have gone with. Around this time I stopped eating, developed OCD, and anxiety problems. Since I have been on Citalopram for almost 3 months now I generally do feel better about most things but I thought it would be a good idea to see what other people have to say and how other people cope.
anyway :huh: x
