I am me

[Zandi]

Hello, I am me and I have my issues as well as does my family. I'm new to any sort of support group as I have just pushed through my problems on my own. I myself have anxiety and a slight side of OCD. Thanks to Prozac I at least don't have the graphic images of my cats bleeding to death all over the house while I'm gone or my son dead on the side of a road somewhere.

My husband has his own anxiety issues along with a chronic pain disorder which has him on a ton on meds that affect his memory, which agrivates the anxiety and depression. My son has anxiety and panic attacks with a coating of depression.

I'm the strong one. I'm the one that keeps my stuff locked down tight so noone knows what I'm going through, cause I need to be there to support what they got going on and give them the strong shoulder to hold them up. I don't cry, which bothers me cause I really wish I could just break down and let crap out.

So, I found myself here looking for others that may understand how I handle my mental issues. I'm not sure which of the specific boards I would belong to just yet, I'll have to keep browsing.

Nice to meet you.
