Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 Kay, I don't know if it is part of the syndrome, but I know Kennedy certainly has obsessive tendencies. Hope the Paxil helps, Weir Mom to Kennedy 4yr old CHARGEr, 12, 10, and wife to Graeme New Brunswick, Canada Visit the " Weir homepage " at: http://personal.nbnet.nb.ca/gweir ICQ #1426476 " In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on. " - Frost Obscessive ?Thoughts Hello Everybody, I'm considering going back onto Paxil because of the problem I have with obscessive thoughts. I think I have heard some of you in the past talk about your children having some problem with obscessiveness. Is this part of the syndrome?

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 Chantelle, My counselor and I discussed it the last time I was in there. Of course he doesn't do the prescribing but we both feel that my regular doctor will prescribe it at his recommendation. I know my brother used Luvox for this for a while.

But then again I don't l like to hear about all the added stress it has caused you. Could you share why you are 'scared to death'? I met 18 yr. ago (we met in a bar :-) Even though I had some male friends before him, he scared me. I don't really know why. When I look back on it now, maybe I was afraid of love?

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Hi Martha, Well I think it has been a problem to some extent most of my life but sometimes I am able to handle it better than others. I have had a lot of depression problems in the past as well. In fact, I have a diagnosis of major depression, recurrent. Its just been under control for a good while now. As for the obscessive thoughts they do seem to be worse under stress, yes. I'm not under that much stress right now most of the time except for one thing. I'm trying to have a relationship with a guy for the first time in over 4 years and I'm scared to death. I think that this is the stress that is now getting to me like this.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Oh Kay, I am so SO sorry for all that you have been through- I'm in tears ;-( Why does life have to be this way (for you, or anybody)? This is a really hard post to tackle on my own. I cannot comprehend it all, at this time -- You are so wonderful to have shared this with me and the rest of the list. Thanks and with love......

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Hi Jan, Well I've been hurt a lot in my life. I do not like to dwell on the hurt but it's a fact. I was married to an abuser. He hit me a lot and even tried to kill me once. So I'm not comfortable with men. I've been divorce for a long time now and on my own. The last time I dated we got along really well but he dumped me for his ex-wife. So I'm just not sure about relationships anymore. But I am trying because being alone isn't good either. By the way, I'm not alone in actuality anymore. I now live with a family. So that is not being alone but still its different from having a special somebody.
