Hiya! (my intro)

[LovesMeSomeCake]

Hi! I must say I'm kind of happy to see some familiar usernames in here.  Not sure how it took me so long to find this.  I'm 32, and have had anxiety my whole life it turns out and didn't even know...well aside from the bloody fingers from chronic cuticle biting and bad attitude.  I was diagnosed two years ago and then stopped fighting the Drs attempts to medicate it.  I have been on fluoxetine for almost two years and I am now one of the friendliest people you'll meet.  I spew please and thank you like unicorns spew rainbows.  We are TTC and I was worried about having to stop the meds, but the Drs say its a minimal risk so I can keep going.  TTC is stressful enough ON my meds.  Sorry, I ramble.  I'm excited to have a group of ladies to talk about this part of my life with, I am in between therapists, due to scheduling conflicts (I work 9-5, so I need a Dr. who's a bit more flexible) and I haven't really told anyone other than H about this all with.  All the best!

Welcome. It's great to hear to here the medication is helping! We're also ttc (currently benched) but medication was a concern of mine too.

Oh no, I accidentally stole your siggy GIF, but I love it so so much! Is it OK to share? not sure the rules/etiquette.

LovesMeSomeCake I'm not sure where you live, but zocdoc.com might help narrow down search.

LovesMeSomeCake You've just made this lurker come out of the shadows. Your avatar made me laugh! I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes when I was 13 and one of the top questions I get is, "Is that the BAD kind?!"

Back I go.

Welcome to you as well. I used to happily be a lurker!

Ugh, I'm not sure why I missed this, because I was sure I responded. Welcome and I'm happy that you are having a better attitude and still able to take your meds. Don't give up on finding a good therapist, either. I've seen countless therapists and just now found one that I really love and click with. Feel free to jump in on the weekly threads and I'm looking forward to getting to know you!
