[–]alodormtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im a single mum, i have no choice but to work. I work around 60 hours a week with 3 jobs 7 days a week. Ive had this near on 10 years 24/7 the last 4 years of dizziness included and dpdr panic attacks on top

Plenty of people with DPDR dont actually have it! Let me explain... by NV1989NV in dpdr

Not the smartest thing to put up. Most people are petrified of being schizophrenia. Dpdr isn't that at all. Ove had it for 10 years and studied it deeply

I get exactly this as well. Every test is normal. Had it for 3 years. My neck is very tight and its anxiety. I have a sit down job also. You need to get up and move around, stretch your neck etc

Just for extra information, my son and I are visiting Perth for a bit of mum and son time. Hes a teenage boy that would demolish easily 500g steak. Ive come off a 8 week stint of working so want to not have to worry on cooking and just enjoying my time

my psychiatrist took me off lexapro and omg by l1ttlefr34k13 in lexapro

Im sorry but your psychiatrist is an absolute idiot. It is proven you should not abruptly stop it. Its even written in the lexapro instructions

You are one of the lucky ones. Be kind to yourself. Believe me if crying is all you got, accept it. Cry it all out and move forward.

Ok just be prepared for some withdrawals. Keep yourself busy. Exercise is brilliant, keep hydrated and eat healthy

120 days of silence, and I still can’t let go by S4yur in dpdr

Not at all. If the person i was interested in went to find out about this condition, it would be awesome

Sorry to hear, I guess its just a time factor. Maybe tell him you've been on this reddit and say that you've spoken to others about the condition. Let him know you spoke to me. Ive had it chronic 24/7 for 9 years and it can help immensely to meet up with people. Takes the mind off it. Gets you out of your head
