[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 664298, member: 1550"] I used to. Horrible ones. I have had a lot of diagnoses in my day since I started therapy at 23 and psychiatry has evolved. The only consistent diagnoses I have had, from one psychiatrist to a psychologist to a therapist for all these years are: mood disorder not otherwise specified (called, in the old days bipolar II, but it really isn't like bipolar so they changed it), generalized anxiety disorder, and panic disorder. From 23 until now probably every therapist I had diagnosed this. I had a feww add things like Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) thoughts (which I think is wrong), but these were the Three Big Ones. A panic attack is so scary. For a while I did not want to leave my hosue. Once I left a cart full of groceries during a panic attack, ran to the parking lot and drove home, missing many red iights, just to get home to my safe place. I could have killed myself or somebody else. There is a lot of help, both behavioral and medications for panic disorders. If you keep getting them do reach out for that help. Genie, my only real family is my husband and kids and grands. Ma sound like a lot, but not much and no extended family. If you need a friend to talk to, you can always PM me. Don't be shy. If you want to read about or post about family of origin issues (mean mother, sister, brother, aunt, uncle) there is now a forum for that...Family of Orign Forum. It has helped me c ome to grips with my life in spades. You are welcome to read or post there as well. [/QUOTE]
