Hi Fallen4myT, Thanks for welcoming me. I also suffer from mega anxiety but not much depression either. I am so glad that I found this site...the people are so nice.
The only thing is I don't know if I am posting right...should I start a new thread each time or what? I am confused on this website.
I take xanax for my anxiety but recently (6wks ago) started taking Lexapro and I have to say my xanax usage has decreased tremendously. I have had anxiety since I was 17, now 33 and I have never talked to people about it. I wish I found a place like this a long time ago - it really helps!

hi Ivan Michael,
Thanks for writing! I am 33 and have been suffering from anxiety/panic disorder since I was 17. After all these years I have finally decided to take meds to help me overcome this terrible disorder.
God Bless and be well

Hey Anxious babe how are you doing? My doc has mentioned Lexapro but I havent tried it yet..you may find a lot of posts on it on the area called BABBLE its all on meds and stuff. I think youre posting just fine...It depends on what you want if you want to join in on a thread already existing just add to it by using the reply..but say, you wanna talk with people on a certain subject you need to talk on or want to just make a new one SAY FOR FUN There realy isnt a rule on it we are all so easy ya know.
I HATE ANXIETY BTW...
There is a Social board too and that is great as well as the Psychology board they are like my personl favorites...If you write poems or like to write...there is a Writing board....Just feel free to look all around and jump in anytime or...add a new thread :)

hiya anxious babe! welcome to babble. i've been here just a little while (posting since september) and have found it to be extremely helpful to me. i hope you find the same thing as well.
i noticed your name on social as well. i'm glad to see that. there are a whole bunch of helpful, supportive and just plain wonderful people all over this site. feel free to explore around and post where you need to. also, if a conversation (or thread i guess is the term used) interests you, poke your head in and talk. i'm sure everyone would love the chance to listen to what you have to say.on the other hand, this board is nice in that you can begin talking with the other posters who registered around the same time you did.
glad to see you babe! and i hope your anxiety is improving soon. i know personally i had extreme anxiety just a year ago, but through therapy i was (and am) able to control it. i'm lucky i guess?
ok, one last note. don't let ivan fool you. he's rather fun to talk too. again, glad to see you here!

Hi Karen_kay,
Thanks for the welcome. I am looking forward to finding out what people like me do to overcome their anxiety. I have had anxiety since I was 17. Now 33 married with 2 kids, I am able to keep my anxiety under control with no more trips to the ER. However I keep my xanax handy and was just put on a low dose of Lexapro 6 weeks ago. I am feeling better but still have bad anxiety before my period.
Well enough about me, what about you?
