i saw a psychiatrist last week for an assesment and i told him about i worry about my inner anger, low moods, my racing thoughts where im constantly worrying and thinking about things, and forgetting. the fact that ive withdrawn into myself and dont wanna go out anywhere because i have panic attacks, and im scared of being inappropriatly angry, which i have in the past, i told him i have paranoid ideas to. but after all this he still thinks i have some type of personality disorder…and that i require some talking treatments…but he said i dont have a mental illness or depression and would perscribe me medication…can anyone help with this? you may have to read my other questions to see all the probs i have

for your distressing symptoms?

i have bad persecutory paranoia, where i dont trust alot of people, i think people are out to get me, are ostracizing me, want to ruin my life, prevent me from accomplishing my goals, im being talked about…..people know who iam..

i have racing, obsessive thoughts each day, where i cant hold a train of thought, i keep forgetting…100 thoughts, anxieties, insecurities, racing round my mind all at once…cant concentrate or organize anything.

i have high levels of panic and anxiety which has prevented me going out anywhere…i dont feel safe outside, feel ill be attacked or something will happen to me…i have panic attacks, where i cant catch my breath…im startled by loud noises..i only go out when i have to.
i have flashbacks to traumatic times, bullying times, when i was victimised and attacked.
i have rage and anger feelings constantly still, years ago i used to have rage outbursts regularly, but now i contol it, but get the feelings alot
i have disocociation when outside, when im in panic
and anxiety mode…i sort of just zone out..

these symptoms are very dibilitating and are impairing
my ability to go out, live my life or function…
i cant even leave my apartment now, unless i gots to.

my psychiatrist has organised some ”psychotherapy”
and an occupational therapist..
but he wont perscribe meds because he said their
addictive…..plus i heard the proper treatment
i should be getting is DBT dialectal behavioural
therapy.
so i feel as though im missing out and not getting the right
help, treatment or support.
can anyone give ‘ clear ‘ advise on what i should do?
i feel i exibit symptoms of PTSD , anxiety disorder, depression…..although ive not been diagnosed with these things.
just the BPD
ive suffered like this since 16…..im 30 now
i just want to get well and recover, accomplish a happy life.
this is why im so frustrated

i was diagnosed with borderline personality years ago, the mental health system up to now has FAILED me and im still struggling to get the help and care i need at the age of 31 ..

i have ptsd symptoms , all the symptoms and want to be tested and diagnosed for it, as well as the borderline , i also suspect bipolar , as i have some bipolar symptoms – racing thoughts everyday, cant concentrate or hold a thought…..forget constantly……thoughts scattered everywhere….struggle to organize.

i have badanxiety, obsessive thoughts and worries , hyper vigillant outside…on edge…get panic attacks and palpitations…….struggle with a lot of rage and anger still……..years ago used to have involuntary outbursts of rage that used to ” take over ” me outside……just before the outbursts , id remember my thoughts racing badly, feel extremely anxious, hyper vigillant……feel paranoid that people were threatening me……used to struggle with a hostile angry posture….threatening…..on guard , then id just ‘ lose it ‘ – and start attacking people , lashing out……..making a public scene.

that was many years ago now, i controlled the outburst all by myself, without any psychiatric help…….and since then been searching for proper care and help…………….and via the internet, been trying to research my symptoms and whats wrong with me..

i put it down so far to my diagnosis years ago of BPD, – which i accept, but also know i have PTSD, and put alot of the symptoms because of that, im also wondering if bipolar plays a part to.

i have symptoms that bpd doesnt cover, throughout my life ive suffered great psychological abuse , a few physical attacks including a head injury in a street attack, when i lost control of rage in 1997 , my skull was never cracked, but the skin torn open on top, ive also suffered constantly being victimized in life.

alot of people wouldnt of been able to take the stuff what i took and still with stand.

recentley i stumbled on a question here which made me think, could any of my symptoms be caused by physical illness ? – ie : thyroid problems ?
if they were , what would i do about it ? how would i get tested ?, and what would i ask to be tested for ?

here was the question :

What is the proper treatment for?
if your anxiety and panic attacks are so bad that you dont wanna go out anywhere and stay inside everyday? , plus..youve had an inner rage and anger problems for over 10 years and you also stat inside everyday because your afraid youll lose it or have an aggressive or anger outburst…i had them mainly in the past and they put me obviously in dangerous situations. and although i can control them a heell of alot better, i stay inside because of the fear of losing control of my anger, i also get the strange sensation of having the feeling of feeling detached from things that go on around me when i go out, which i dont like…..what is the proper treatment for all this????.Also what are all these symptoms symptomatic of.what disorder??……………at the moment im pursuing a second opinion because i was unhappy with the last psychiatric assessment which it was said i have a personality disorder

ok when i get mad (sometimes) my hands kind of tremble. my heart races and my breathing is a little bit shorter. its like when i get furious angry. i have gotten really angry before and not have had any physical symptoms to go along with my anger. i feel like the best thing is to physically fight someone. its like all my anger is releases in a way.

or is it a anxiety/panic attack…because when im nervous i get butterflies. i never get butterflies when im angry. they physical feeling is more in the my chest area.
im a woman btw and i have had physical fights w/ people. idk i never shake when i feel anxious or nervous it’s ONLY when im fire pissed off. i don’t know if i really get anxiety mixed with anger. i think i just feel pure anger.

I had pain in my thigh for about a week that I know was brought on by extreme stress and internalized anger

about 2 hours ago I woke up when I felt something go into my lung area and since then I have had trouble breathing

I really dont know if I want to go to the hospital because I dont have insurance and I know it will cost like ,000, I also have gone to the hospital before when I just had a panic attack

I know I have anxiety and some physical symptoms, as of right now it feels like I have trouble breathing

I dont know what to do
it feels like I cant go back to sleep because I wont be able to breathe, I really dont know what to do
it feels like I cant go back to sleep because I wont be able to breathe, I really dont know what to do

borderline personlity disorder: i have high anxiety and panic problems that have made me agrophobic:
i have rage and anger i struggle to control….i control it but struggle..but still get the intense feelings..

i feel i have ptsd symptoms resulting from an abusive, traumatic, bullying life… i get startled at loud noises..have panic attacks..
i have low depressive moods each day, feel lonely, isolated and cut off.. directionless.
i have racing thoughts everyday, where a 100 thoughts race through my brain, thoughts and anxieties….i forget constantly…..cant concentrate…like obsessive wories….i think of something, but forget it a minute later….then i get more anxious and depressed.

ive been refered for psychotherapy…but my psychiatrist wont give me any meds saying the ones that work are addictive..
theyve given me an occupational therapist to.

is this the right treatment? am i missing out on anything? if so, what treatment should i be getting for these problems?

started having panic attacks about 15 years ago. They have gotten worse over the years. I have been taking Xanax 1.5 mg and Zoloft 100 mg for about 8 years. I honestly could not function without the Xanax. It is a life saver! However; even with both meds I still have episodes almost everyday. I always get myself out of the situation in time tho before I have a full blown attack. I am so tired of living this way. I avoid restaurants and places that I know I might have one. I have been in therapy before but it didn’t seem to be helping. Does anyone have any advice for other treatment? I want so bad to live a normal life. I am tired of this disorder controlling me. I have even thought about hypnosis. Please help.
The problem is…I KNOW they are attacks and I KNOW there is no real anger. Believe me I have tried everything. When I start having one I tell myself that nothing bad is going to happen and there is no danger around and that its just snother stupid attack. But it doesn’t go away…it isn’t as bad but it’s still there.

hey guys i have a question for over two years i have had many stress related body problems, i have something like Raynaud’s phenomenon all over my body i also have bad seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp and face.

My work recently shut down due to financial reasons and so im currently seeking employment but in the time i have been off work these symptoms have dramitically got better and i had tried everything known to man to treat them.

then tonight i had a bit of anger/stess/anxiety that for anyone else it would be over and done with afterwards but for me it brought about all my physical symptoms.

am i just a worrier or anxious person as the episode tonight wasnt even that big a deal yet im turned upside down as the problems have arisen.

also im worried then that even the smallest tasks in my new job that have a little stress attached to it will make me worse again

basically even the littlest bit of stress can mess me up.

thanks for any help on this one
its a worry as it takes months for these things to clear up with little or no stress, but ten minutes to come back.

obviously i cant go through life with no stress as it would catch up eventually but why do my symptoms come on so fast with little things

i am 36yrs of age. Until three years ago i never used to have anxiety or panic attack. the situation seems to be getting out of hand cos now it affects my public speaking and annoyingly my writting. (i get so nervousand jittery when somebody is watching me write that my hands get frozen and cant even write my name without great effort. my hand will shake and my handwriting will be clumsy. And the kind of job irequires me to write all the time while a customer sits beside or opposite me.

i have tried deep breathing –sometimes its works but sometimes when i am already highly charged (with my heart beat pumping fast) it doesnt work.

i actually need a psycological technigue or help to overcome this. Cos i have come to realise that my thought and emotional state affects the degree of my anxiety. For example i tend to be less nervous or nervous-free ( as such i write well, speak publicly well) when i am angry or in a sad mood. ie anger, annoyance, sad event calms my nerves.

so pls what can i do to combact anxiety, always remain calm-no matter i.e be unshakable by events/situations, and in summary become fearless and worry-free. Thanks

First: question states:

Why are retarded kids allowed in H.S?

I am so bothered by this, triggered big anxiety attack, ANGER (it is so rare that I get angry) and I am ready to blow a gasket over this! Extreme anxiety symptoms, even difficult to type because of shaking.

2 post:

Do you think it’s foolish to seek medical advice here?

I tried to explain my feelings but like I mentioned I’m going to blow.

All of the was I am feeling now has also gotten me angry at myself for letting these people get to me.

OH, I just feel sick and disgusted now.

Thanks

im not looking for a deep, emotional answer to this question just knowledge.
