need help

lately ive fond that im having trouble controlling my anxiety and the smallest things send me in a spiral ive started taking my meds again to see if it helps and it does abit but not enough for me to function completly without my partner with me and i still dont like taking them because of side effects but im worried that if i told my dr that they arent helpin greatly hell put me on stronger meds with stronger side effects and i dont want that especailly with a young child. i also find that unless my partner or sister is with me i cant leave the house without freaking out which is hard when ive got to walk my son to daycare and get back on my own on mondays im only just pulling it off without having major attacks. my partner is very supportive but we live with his parents who think im jus dramatising everything. my study is going okish but only cause i focus on what i can do at home but as im near the end of my course im running out of written assessments and will have to go in to do my pracs my partner can come with me but he isnt allowed past reception and ive tried to discuss it with the branch manager a few times but he continues to say that he has to stay in reception area im not sure what to do i want to finish but i need him or my siter to be with me

Hi there lovely and welcome. Anxiety is very debilitating and im sorry ur struggling with this atm but ur in the right spot for support and you don't have to deal with this alone xx if ur anxiety is concerning you and u feel ur meds might not be combating it then I would def go back and see ur gp to have a chat just explain ur concerns about the higher dosages. as for ur uni goes approach ur special consideration dept every uni has one it may be that ur gp or therapist write a letter to explain ur exception to ur branch manager about ur high levels of anxiety and that ur partner is ur safe haven. I'm sure something will be able to eventuate. I hope this has helped you please keep posting and let us know how u go xx Venessa

hi fairywings thanks for your reply i dont study at a uni i study through evocca collage and they dont a special consideration department so its is a little harder to get them to cooperate with my needs and my gp does know about my concerns with side effects to meds but he says that all meds have side effects and if i need a higher dose or stronger meds then he say i just have to deal with them

oh that's a shame I wish there was an easy way for you xx it's either fight or flight isn't it.? i know daunting.... with ur meds u don't just to deal with them if u have given them ample time to work and ur still not happy i would reconsider but there is no harm in just trying if you need too - maybe just what u need to help you get by thanks for coming back to me. Maybe others in here might be able to offer some support and insight around ur schooling i'm really not sure how this school works. xx

Hey there everybody, I am Just wondering how can I feel more or less, less worried regarding my future,I don't need nor want Anxiety Medications, because I don't need them. I am 24 Years Old, Without Friends, I have been Volunteering finally for the past almost 7 Months at a Salvo's store, I have No Direction for Suitable Payed Jobs or Careers. I am with a Temp Agency Job Recruiter getting no where. I don't agree with TAFE & UNIVERSITY, I believe there over priced and you may not have a long term happy future, less your certain It's what you want and less you have had previous Work Experience while Studying. I Just wanted to Work a couple Suitable Jobs and start with Part Time Work, I Just wanted a few*, 2-3 Long Term Survival options that pay enough Money, that are Manageable for me. I'm worried I will never find a suited Loyal Wife or make Friends with Godly, Straight Edge people, My biggest Joy In my life, Is my Hobbies, Music, Religion, Comedy and Video Games and I want to have all the time I need to enjoy and become Talented with my Passions & Interests. I am still trying to get my Driver's Licence I should have It In less than 3 months, But becoming a Competent Driver when alone takes gradual experience and confidence. I feel scared because I want to be Working Jobs and Saving Money and becoming Financially Independent for Security. I want the Routine so badly and Good Warm Friendly Colleagues and a Manager or Boss who Isn't over bearing or unfair. I have a lot of Responsibility I need to Improve on, Getting up Early for me has always been tough, as I'm not a Morning person, and remembering appointments and being more In touch with my Calendar. Are my concerns fair at 24 y/o. Are many Youth In my predicament, or am I In the Unfortunate Minority. I want change to come to minimize my worries, and to feel better about myself and feel less concerned. If you guys could give me your thoughts regarding the way things seem to be looking for me. I'm pretty unaware of how the World In general Is heading besides Global Warming Concerns, I'm also heavily concerned about A.I. - Artificial Intelligence Automating and replacing common Jobs. Thanks for your Responses and time, I'm sure a lot feel the same as me 🙂
