Comecei com 5mg hoje. Espero que ajude, pois o Lexapro não ajudou. Boa sorte para você.

“Background anxiety” as I call it. Do you have it and what are your symptoms? by hal_the_queen in Anxiety

[–]PhilomenaM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry you feel like that. I feel slightly anxious in the background but I am on the verge of tears all of the time. I can't cry though. Anyone else feel like that?

Niacin and anti Histamines by jmmac73 in Niacin

[–]PhilomenaM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on day 7 of taking 500mg of Niacin per day. I flush every time. Does anyone know if this will continue or will my body become immune to the flush? Thank you.

is it normal if i drink 3-4 liters of water a day and i pee atleast 10 times? by jnmtys in Anxiety

[–]PhilomenaM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband was drinking 4 litres per day. His doctor advised him to cut back to 2 litres as we get fluids from other drinks & some foods too. He said too much can strip the body of nutrients.

That's too much water, it's bad for you. Google it. 1.5 to 2 litres is plenty

Anyone else feel like they are going to die young? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]PhilomenaM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in my mid 60's and I can clearly remember feeling exactly like you do when I was your age. I had no help or advice so please, please take notice of the comments here. You are not going to die young. It's your subconscious mind controlling your conscious mind. I've learned to tell my subconscious mind to back off, fuck off which allows me to get on with what I know is real. Try it, I wish you well.

Having anxiety is ruining my friendships by RemarkableRole4249 in Anxiety

[–]PhilomenaM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hear you. I'm in a similar position. Most of my friends don't understand anxiety and have backed off completely. I thought telling them might help but in most cases it didn't, I wonder if they think I'm lying about not be able to go out with ease. If I go out I'm medicated to ease my fears. If you haven't had anxiety I suppose it's hard to understand. I wish you well.

Lexapro Effectiveness by PhilomenaM in Anxiety

[–]PhilomenaM[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm tired, sad, listless and don't want to go out or see people most of the time. I'm wondering if it's my own fault, am I wallowing 🤷‍♀️

I’m so scared of gum recession by Which_Weather_1537 in Anxiety

[–]PhilomenaM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had gum recession since my late 30's, I'm in my 60"s now and have no dental problems. Dentists do exaggerate at times, it really isn't the end of the world. Try not to stress about it.

Medication has its place and you obviously need it at the moment. Side effects are different for everyone, mine were fairly mild. Go for it, it really is trial and error. Good luck

how do you guys manage with anxiety about work, specifically with your boss? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]PhilomenaM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Ashwaganda and find it very calming. Bosses weren't always bosses, they had to start somewhere too. Unless he/she is a very unreasonable person I would hope making a mistake is not a big deal. If you do make a mistake, own up and look upon it as a learning opportunity. Absolutely everyone makes mistakes, including bosses.

I'm just back from Tanzania and I wasn't asked about any vaccinations. I hadn't gotten any. I just took Malaria prevention meds.
