hi all,
i am not sure if its the right forum to write about my current feelings. I live in a house with my parents and siblings. i have my own room and everything is provided. but over the past few months ive started to feel like i am not a good fit in my family. i dont enjoy being a part of the plans. i dont share the laughs, i dont want to be a part of any future plans. i just want to leave. i feel a kind of compulsion to not respond to anything my family tries to do. over the last few months ive become a loner. and i am definitely more bitter. i take effexor xr and my doctor tells me that it causes a lot of anxiety. i am definitely not happy with myself right now, any ideas/suggestions to make myself feel better?? thanks. |

when i took effexorXR, it was very good for my anxiety. it calmed me considerably. are there things going on within the family that you are internalizing and perhaps this is coming out in anxiety? how old are you? do you see a Pdoc or a family M.D.? sorry for all the questions, just trying to get the overview of your situation. xoxox pat

no nothing in the family, they try to be supportive actually. i am 22 and i see a whole bunch of people. current diagnosis is bipolar depression and anxiety. i just tend to think too much and that causes all the trouble. i cant help it though.

part of if not all of what you are feeling is normal. most 22 year olds are branching off from their families by going to college, getting their own appartments and jobs, basically establishing who they are independant from their families. you might try contacting some of your friends and finding out if they need roommates, know of jobs and college opportunities. Research college and jobs and appartments yourself too. even if you decide to stay with your family you will feel better because you arre finding ways to branch out independanly emotionally if not physically from your family and developing who you are independant from them just by looking into those things and you may be happier for it.
