Re anxiety
I'm new here and not sure where to start, I have been suffering c-ptsd and anxiety lady few months,I'm currently not working so my stress levels are high I had a job for 16 yrs and ever since I've not been working and witness my father in-law pass infront of me with second heart attack in the hospital and my own health not 100% I've let that get to me so much, Iam dealing with a service on the phone when I get emotional in my local area but wish things would improve, I tried 8 days of antidepressant but had too many side effects so had to cease over weekend

Re: Re anxiety
Hi @Nattysa just stopping by quickly to say welcome to the forums. I’m sorry things are difficult for you at the moment and that the medication you tried wasn’t good. Sometimes it can take time to find the right one… and it’s well worth the time and effort, I’ve found great help and relief from medication.

Re: Re anxiety
hey there @Nattysa, welcome to the forums ❤️
it sounds like things have been really intense lately. It's understandable that you're struggling, although I wish it were different for you ❤️ I hope you find our community supportive.
Have you spoke with your GP about the medication? Like @Bow said, for some of us, it can take a while to find the right one. I know for me, I had a few weeks of side-effects, but they helped a great deal. But your doctor will be the best person to speak to.
I thought I'd tag a handful of our community guides for you to meet and connect to @Faith-and-Hope @Judi9877 @NatureLover @outlander@Shaz51 @ShiningStar @Snowie @Flying_Hams @wellwellwellnez @maddison @pinklollipop15

Re: Re anxiety
welcome
whats been happening for you today ?
Sounds like a heap of things to be going through aye.
You sound like you know yourself when you say "I've let that get to me so much"
Would you agree with that?
