Hi everyone,

I’ve posted this before, but I only got a couple of answers, so I’m hoping to get some more advice!

I’m 26 and am in a relationship with a lovely guy, aged 27, and have been for almost 18 months. I suffer with severe depression and anxiety. I’m on anti depressants, (Sertraline), and I’m receiving counselling. I’ve been quite open over my feelings with my boyfriend, and he’s been supportive. I’ve only recently started taking the anti depressants, (about 3 weeks ago), and they seem to have increased my insecurities. Whilst I’m with my bf, I’m ok, but as soon as we’re apart, I start having massive doubts as to his feelings for me. I’ve told him I don’t feel loved when I’m apart from him, and he asked what he could do to help, but I couldn’t answer. For instance, this weekend, he went to a party, so I went to see a girlfriend. The whole time, I was obsessing over my phone and why he wasn’t texting me back straight away etc. I know it was irrational and paranoid of me, but I can’t help it! I don’t want to keep going on at him, and saying "I need you to reassure me" all the time, because he shouldn’t have to.

I am having regular meet ups with my dr to discuss my medication, and she wants me to stick with it. What can I do to remind myself that he does love me when we’re apart? I know in my heart he does, but I get this nauseating feeling in my stomach and get all panicky that he doesn’t. Has anyone else gone through this? Or can anyone give me some advice? I want to be a happy person who he looks forward to seeing, and my fears will turn into a self fulfilling prophecy at this rate.

Thanks everyone
I meant I don’t feel loved when I’m NOT with him…

I’m sure a lot of people can say this, but, when I was 17 life was so much easier.

I have always been very optimistic, but I can see myself changing and becoming negative like everyone else I know.

I believe deeply that I should be thankful for my problems because God is in control. But I can’t control my thoughts or actions anymore. I no longer think innocently.

I am now 23 and I have had my share of traumas/unfortunate events.

My ex-boyfriend was killed in 2006 leaving me with so many questions and confusion. I can say that is the major effect of my symptoms now.

But since that happened it seems as though it unveiled all the deeper problems I’ve had in the past. Abandonment and trust issues to be specific.

I was molested as a child and abused mentally/physically.
I am now dating someone 4 years younger who is a compulsive liar and borderline. Doesn’t help much. But for some reason I love him with all my heart. I feel like being with him is only bringing my insecurities more out in the open.
With the trust issues and age difference I often have harmful thoughts. I view my self as lowest at all times and I am only happy when I think of the day I will be free of him.

But its not that easy, he wont let me go on my own terms. he wont let me go physically. If I say its over he will stand at my door day and night (i know cuz Ive tried). & yes it’s his immaturity, yes, its unhealthy. I know the answers I just cannot implement them on my part. I cant do the whole restraining order break up. Out of my love for God and kindness, I stay and pray… and think I can help him… but I think its making me depressed… I don t want to do anything I used to. I’m tired all the time, hungry all the time, sad all the time, jealous all the time. I dont have insurance for a doctor. & I’ve tried anti depressants from a family member but they only leave me tired and naseous. I don’t know what my issue is. I just want the old me back! Is anti depressents the only answer? & is this depression?

about 3 months ago i started to feel some pain in the right lung close to the heart. everytime i take a deep breath it feels like sharp doll pain that goes to the middle of the back next to the spine and into my shoulders and neck and ear. But when i breath throu my stomach the pain disappears(pain levelvery vvery little). I did have a x ray done on the lungs about a month ago everything came out fine. I am just wundering would could this be. the pain gets worse when i only take deep breaths. Furthermore, everytime i wake up in the morring i get this pain in my shoulder and under my arm when i have to pick up something using that arm, This pain is located on my right shoulder. The doctor gave Anti imflation drugs but they really dont work i still have pain on my right shoulder. can anybody tell me if they are having the same symptoms and how did u make it go away.

Me:
Age 19
Male
Smokes: N0
Drinks: No
I dont eat alot of fruits or vegs
I am not coughing
Right lung feels sore

I faint a lot of different random times. I have gone for multiple tests. They thought it was my heart, but it’s not, and they thought it was the normal questions doctors first ask, like do you smoke, drugs, drink, or pregnancy. To all those it was no.

So usually i faint in a mall, in crowded spaces, or the one that i realized at the moment is when someones complaining, (my mother), and i sit there and just listen and then i tell her i have to leave cause iam not feeling so well, and the next thing i know iam on the floor out cold, and i wake up about sometimes 10-20seconds later.
I dont lose memory, i know what happens, but sometimes i do hurt myself if i cant sit down before i go out.
Also i was tested to see if i had diabetes, and they thought it could be developing type 2 but its only in pre stages now, so i dont have it at this time anyways.
The doctor also said i could have this name i cant even pronouce, and it’s a thing where i may just randomly faint my whole life.

So i was wondering if anyone else has this? Or knows anyone that this happens too and what i could do to help it stop. I eat good, healthy foods, iam active as well.
I was wondering if it could actually be stress, but in the mall noones stressing me…

I have arethmia (not sure if sp. right) which is where my heart sometimes flutters and goes real fast for a few minutes. I have had 5 children and am 5’2 and 225lbs. I would like to lose weight but dont want to use pills or any weird diet fads. I am worried about my heart if I just start jogging or something. Yes I have tried eating less.
