Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Hey Kate, I did not think i needed one either. here i am a paramedic of 30 years, and educator for the ARMY, strong as an ox when i comes to being in control. I buried my son in 90, my mom died 5 years later and my dad is still Missing in Action from Vietnam. So long story short, i becan to notice a few thinot thngs and i did think were depression/anxiety mode. My mouth getting dry, throat lumps....lol nausea, dizziness. i thought ok it is just a symptom of all the other stuff. when to the pyscho thearpy doc, spend a couple hours with her and she said you are depressed and show some panic attack items. now after 4 weeks with her i am not hiding in the bathroom at work, afraid some one might see me in pain or my Crohns getting a charge out of the game of the day,, do i eat, or not. think it over. chronic health problems and accumaltive stress with wig us all out.
