the crying has stopped!

[seeker]

Hello everyone,
Well after my depsondent post earlier on, the crying has indeed stopped. not sure whether it is due to prozac, no work, rest or probably a combination, but anyway, I am starting to feel human again. Amactually looking forward to things now and any day now will actually get off my bum and do some of them, too! There is hope everybody!

Oh dear Gareth - have you got any help about it? It was only after I cried every day for about two months that I realised 'hmmm, maybe this isn't going to go away on its own!'. My fiancee has been lovely, but was finding it difficult to comprehend what was going on! He ahs been very supportive and caring though.

No i try to deal with it myself if i can i am 36 and they say that men don't cry thats cxxp. I have had anxiety for 2 years thats all but its horrible. How long have you had it for?

I have had it for about 12 years now! It comes and goes in severity though, and I can control panic attacks well now. The depression I have suffered lately has thrown me, but it is getting better as I have said. I would get thee to a docs and try beta blockers for general anxiety - they have a miraculous effect.

Try and be happy i know its easy said than done stay calm and and get plenty of hugs off your partner.

"try beta blockers for general anxiety - they have a miraculous effect."

These drugs aren't the miracle drug some think they are. They do, like all medication have side effects. No criticism intended, I just want to give the other side of things. I was on them, and my Dad, and we were so lethargic we were tired all day every day. Also they can increase your blood pressure.

Absolutely - I agree I wouldn't just pop pills will nilly, but I think if i had taken a short course of beta blaockers way back when I started suffering panic attacks, I may never have gotten as bad as I have. of course, i'll never know. I spoke too soon, as well - had a massive cry tonight, following silly argument and frustration with myself. not an argument with myself - i'm not that mad!! sigh. Ah well. At least the gap between cries is becoming greater! thanks for all the cheering messages. i'm not getting much help with my twitchy muscles thread in symptoms!
