I need some advice…?
Hi Everyone,
I need some advice. I’m 26 years old….To make a quick story short on my history, I moved out of my house at 14, got pregnant when I was 14, gave my son up for adoption ( i do not regret this at all ). My son’s father at the time was very abusive, verbally and mentally. When I turned 17 I met my husband. We had a beautiful baby boy together when I turned 18. When my son turned a yr. old my 18 year old brother was diagnosed with testicular cancer. Unfortuntly my brother passed away 6 months after he was diagnosed. Now within the few years after my brother passed my husband got very badly into the drugs. In Sept of 06 my husband and I married and 7 months after we had a beautiful baby girl. Our family is now complete. We moved out of province. Over the past 11 years I have been dealing with serious anxiety/panic disorders. Lately I have noticed myself being very careful and always watching my floor, like I see mice running around at the corner of my eye. I have layed mouse traps and never caught anything. Then I also deal with hearing things. I swear someone says something when they don’t, or I hear people screaming outside…Also at times I get the feeling of little tiny bugs crawling all over my head, arms ears…I’ve done alot of reading online, but it sends me everywhere. I need some help and advice, my doctor keeps throwing me on all these differant pills and non of them are working

I can’t say for sure what you have, but if you are going to a GP for the medicine, switch to a psychiatrist or get a second opinion if you are already going to one. Be your own advocate. And remember it does take at least two weeks for many psych drugs to work, so make sure you are staying on them long enough, assuming no negative side effects, to tell if they are working. I would guess generalized anxiety disorder and paranoid depression from your symptoms, so maybe those will throw you in the right direction.
Hope that helps
