Question:
Is there a medicine of choice for fighting the urge to overcome
"wanting" to be alone. I do not like to interact with people at all! I
think it is depression that has probably gone way too far. I am only
comfortable when alone. (Oh the anxiety is improved with the
imipramine and occassional xanax for emergencies).
Is there one medicine that has had more success for what I am
describing?
Answer:
Wish there were just 1 med "da cure" med but we aren't that fortunate.
Sounds like you are a little depressed and possibly have some social phobia.
Have you talked with your pdoc about this? What exactly happens when you are around people? Are you anxious, do you
fear you are being judged by others, do you feel trapped? Do you prefer to
be alone? Some people are loners and like it that way. Or do you really want
to be able to interact with others, but more comfortably?
I think it is very important to find out what is causing this isolation,
whether it be depression and/or social anxiety. Getting your disorders
effectively controlled with medication and cognitive behavioral therapy
would help a lot. Desensitizing yourself slowly to social situations could
really make a difference.Interesting thought, sorry I can't be of any help, the depression I go
though seem to fade along with anxiety
I can understand how overwhelming anxiety get that it leads into
depressions for me once anxiety starts to fade away I normally feel
overwhelmingly good
depression that lead into anxiety might be better treated with a
anti-depression medication your doctor might be able to help you with this
psycolgist help me work though the worst of my conditions and along with
medication is usually the best results
If you focus on yourself enough you'll learn to regonize your anger for what
it is, a destructive force to yourself,
it basically does more harm to you than anyone else
(I probably heard that thousands of time growing up)
anger and hatred cause stress to our being (mental stress)
stress leads to anxiety,panics and other physical symptom
reconizing this is the start to changing how we view things
not easy to understand more difficult to change but once you do you'll find
yourself happier and healthier and you do it for yourself
If someone does something that annoys you, you will not get angry you
replace it with understanding, and you do this for yourself, when all else
fails Dig down deep within yourself focus on what you are doing learn to
breathe find happiness within yourself put a smile on your face and move on
because your doing for yourself
