    Hey, I'm really sorry you are going through such bad anxiety. 8 too have suffered from depersonalisation. Are you on any meds at all? You mentioned seeing a therapist, have you spoke to a doctor?

      Thanks for the fast reply.i went to the emergency room about two weeks ago and they prescribe me Zoloft our Prozac can really remember..but any how I did not end up taking them cause I googled the pills first and they just have way more negative reviews than positive.i did take some of my step brothers kolnopin and it made me feel way better it was only 0.5mg but I know that's not gonna fix the problem..it will only mask it.so I don't take them anymore but I'm on the edge of taking one cause it's getting bad..I get weird thought like is the government putting stuff in our food to make us feel this way.but then I tell my self no cause dam near everyone should feel this way.then I get weird thought ls that maybe my ex is doing voodoo to me cause she hates me..are those thought cause by anxiety in your opinion?i ask my self why.why now when I have a business to run,a family to support and a newborn son to raise.

      hi mate. sorry to hear how you're feeling. I'm by no means no doctor but I think you should consider that sometimes medication can help you to get feeling back how you should be. Bear in mind that people are much more likely to leave a bad review than a good one. If a medication helps someone, they will just think happy days and get on with their life. If it does the opposite, they will be more inclined to get on a review site and offload some of their stress.I have a number of friends that have mental health issues and the way you are thinking about the government/your ex sounds like something you could need some professional help with before it gets worse. As I said I may be talking absolute rubbish but I'd speak to your Dr again and follow his advice. I hope things get better for you soon!

      Thanks a lot man for your reply I had to go to the emergency room again because they were getting out of hand and getting into see a therapist right now it's hard because are full but the emergency room prescribed me Ativan and I feel like me again I've always had weird thoughts but I think the anxiety amplified them. Everybody has weird thoughts so that's normal I guess from the research I've done it says it is.but I will keep you posted on the months coming if I find any thing new that helped.
