I have had a hard time recently and I'm suffering from anxiety!. Any help or experience in this would be much appreciated!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
From the age of fourteen, I was addicted to heroin and a heavy drinker/smoker!. At sixteen, my girlfriend became pregnant and gave birth to my son when I was seventeen!. Two weeks later she walked out and I got the wake up call I really needed!. I decided it was time to get myself sorted out, but it wasn't easy!.
I used all the will power I had in me to stay off drugs, but it didn't last long and I soon found myself starting again from the very beginning!. I started seeing counselors and therapists who did everything they could to try and keep me clean!. I was severely depressed and suffered anxiety disorder, as well as schizophrenia!. My three month old son had to go and live with my brother, because I was considered a risk to myself and others!. I was admitted into hospital - doctors decided it was my last hope of recovery!. I was violent whilst on drugs but even more violent without them, I remember doctors having to hold me down and sedate me on many occasions!. By this time, I had attempted suicide multiple times and I was on medication for schizophrenia and depression!. At this point I thought I was close to losing my mind - all I could think of was how much I wanted a fix!. It took me two years in all to fully recover and I still have to take medication for schizophrenia which keeps it at bay!.
My son is now three and I'm reminded every day of everything I put him through!. He was born with heroin in his blood and came close to death and then I missed out on months of his life, fighting to get clean!. I could never forgive myself for what I did but all I can hope to do is put it behind me and be a good Dad to Nathan!. Even now, I have days when I feel like giving in and when everything gets hard, I get terrified I'll go back to how I used to be!. My son is currently in hospital, undergoing treatment for acute lymphocytic leukemia and it's tough seeing him so ill!. The only thing keeping me going is knowing that he needs me, but even then it's hard!. I've been referred by my doctor to a counselor again because there's a chance I might lose Nathan!. The though doesn't bear thinking about, I don't know what I'd do without him!.
You need to see a doctor if you haven't already!. Find something to hold onto, like I did my son, and use it to help you get through!. I'm sorry I don't have more advice for you - just a whole lot of experience!. The best thing you can do is to stay strong within yourself and not let these hard times corrupt you!.

Oh yes, i've felt anxiety!. I suffer from generalized anxiety disorder, with underlying symptoms of obsession and depression!. However, I've been speaking to a therapist for over a year now, and he's helped me so much I can't even describe!. Along with the therapy, I take Prozac, a selective serotonin reputake inhibitor!. These two treatments combined have helped me live a completely (well, almost completely) normal life!. If you're experiencing severe anxiety, I recommend speaking to a therapist!. There's no harm/shame in it, and it can only help you! Feel better!. :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
