treklexa Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Hi! My name is Lauren. I was googling info about drugs and came across this board. I'm actually on another forum that is similar but seems so inferior now that I've explored this place. Anyway, I've recently been diagnosed with mild bipolar depression and social phobia. I've only just started meds and will be starting cbt for the anxiety soon. This is all new to me so I take comfort in relating to other people who actually understand what I'm going through. Sometimes I feel SO alone, even with my closest friends/family. So, just thought I'd say hi and I'm glad to be here. Hope everyone is having a good day! Hope this message finds you well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pa_canuck Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Welcome - you are not alone! I'm glad you found us. I too have anxiety and have dived into CBT. It helped me immensly. Never give up hope as sometimes it may be all we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reluctant Mom Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Hey treklexa - I am also really new here, and so far it does feel comforting, though daunting. I am also starting CBT on the 12 July. I am trying to stop the urge to google it too much so that I do not have too many "negative" predispositions to it - but some of the CB folk have offered me some guidance and suggestions which have been great.
