The obsessive thinking and the constant fear just about drives me over the edge at times. I am 57, unemployed because of this (I used to have a high paying job) my husband lost his business and had to start over in a low paying position. Our daughter lives with us (22) and she works full time and is very good at that. Otherwise she spends the rest of her time lying in bed and never does a thing in the house to help me. Neither her nor my husband are supportive in any way. My daughter has a boyfriend and she seems happy. I seem to lack the communications skills that are required to help them understand what is going on with me and that I need help. Yes, I have tried and yes I have gone to my dr. What am I doing wrong? All of this contributes to my stress and ultimately my pain. Every antidepressant I have tried has made me feel very, very sick.
Please help. Thank you to all.View Thread

I used to be so sociable, I had a life, a good profession and lots of money and now my life is so full of fear. I have tried so many antidepressants and they have all made me so ill. I am very sensitive to drugs and a lot of foods. (I have fibromyalgia and I usually post on that site)
I hide in the shower and cry. I do have some good days but those days that I feel desperately frightened have me feeling unglued.
Please help. I understand what everyone is feeling how you are suffering.View Thread

Good luck.View Thread
