I got a notice stating that according to the FDA patients 60 years and older should not take more than 20 mg celexa and 10 mg lexapro. It also says for those under 60 they should not take more than 40 mg of celexa and 20 mg of lexapro. If they are doing this they need to be monitored by an EKG. It says at higher doses it could make you more at risk for an irregular heart rhythm. I just thought everyone should know about it. http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/anxiety-and-depression-21/celexa-warning/ Tue, 13 Dec 2011 03:16:54 +0000 elvina Leaving it all behind? http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/anxiety-and-depression-21/leaving-it-all-behind/
Does anyone else have fantasies like that? Of just leaving their lives behind and starting anew?
I know it wouldn't make my problems go away, or even lessen, and might even make them worse actually, but if I had the financial means, I would possibly do it nevertheless.


Btw, I know I said something similar to this before-- I'm not sure if it was a topic or a blog, but I think this is different enough to post it. I hope lol]]> http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/anxiety-and-depression-21/leaving-it-all-behind/ Sun, 04 Dec 2011 10:13:44 +0000 JaneDoe <![CDATA[Anxiety doesn't HAVE to control you.

I'm new here, but I just wanted to share a bit with you. I've suffered severe generalized anxiety and panic disorder since I was very young. My anxiety was so severe I had to drop out of high school, never having attended classes. Throughout that time, people didn't believe I had anxiety...They thought I was making up excuses or just trying to get out of things. When it got bad enough that I had to drop out, teachers still werent convinced.

Throughout my journey, I went through about 23 different medications, ~10 psychologists/psychiatrists, and almost every side affect you can think of. I have been there. I tried everything...EVERYTHING. For years I did anything I could with the hopes of going back to school to join my peers but it was futile, and for some time I gave up that hope.

However, eventually I found the right medication for me and balance along with behavioral therapy and I am proud to say I have been able to live my life again! I got my GED, got an associates, and am now on the trip to getting my MD!!! I've even started writing a blog about it to encourage others (ged2md.blogger.com) and I promise al of you... YOU CAN GET THROUGH IT!

Please don't give up, and please realize there is help out there and to use EVERY source. I know it's hard to go through every step and not find help, but don't give up. Exhaust every resource and you WILL improve! I promise!!]]> http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/anxiety-and-depression-21/anxiety-doesn-t-have-to-control-you-success-story/ Wed, 30 Nov 2011 23:08:31 +0000 jesse Birthday Game http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/fun-and-games-23/birthday-game/

I've recently been looking into trying medication for depression. It looks like I might be starting something in the next week or so if things work out. Seeing as SSRIs seem to be used to treat both depression and OCD in some cases it shouldn't cause any harm if the cause of my depression is in some way due to OCD, but I thought I'd look into this a bit.

Is it possible for OCD compulsions to be resisted by force of will, depending on the severity? (I seem to have obsessive thoughts on a regular basis, but I never let myself act on them no matter how strongly I feel a need to.) If so, can this lead to depression? I don't know much about psychology or neurology, but I feel like it's possible for that to happen. (I know I've been diagnosed with some mild OCD tendencies in the past, but some recent introspection leads me to believe that I may have some stronger obsessions I haven't been able to talk about with therapists.)

tl;dr: Is it possible to resist OCD compulsions and can this lead to depression?]]> http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/anxiety-and-depression-21/ocd-leading-to-depression/ Tue, 15 Nov 2011 02:21:36 +0000 noparlpf What was the first song you related to? http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/discussion-22/what-was-the-first-song-you-related-to/ And why?

The first song that I ever related to was "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" because I WAS him lol. I was around six or seven. The way it says: "All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names. They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games." I completely related to that and knew exactly how Rudolph felt. All of the other children (and adults as well) used to laugh and call me names. The only difference is that unlike Rudolph, people would ask me to join in "reindeer games" but I was too afraid to and didn't know what to do, so I just stayed by myself. Lots of times I was totally ignored, sometimes I was made fun of instead of being asked to join in, but most of the time, I could have joined in. I was just too scared to.

So, what's the first song you ever related to, and why?]]> http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/discussion-22/what-was-the-first-song-you-related-to/ Mon, 24 Oct 2011 04:28:35 +0000 JaneDoe Testing http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/announcements-24/testing/ testing 1 2 3 testing 1 2 3 http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/announcements-24/testing/ Fri, 14 Oct 2011 17:22:40 +0000 testy testerson Shoutbox = Chat http://www.livinganxious.com/forum/announcements-24/shoutbox-chat/ Is there a way to make the shoutbox bigger? since we like to use it for chatting basically :P Or if there is some other kind of chat box to put on the...
