Exploring My Identity Through Algorithms

Hi, nice to meet you! Hope you get what your looking for out of the app. Let me k ow if you'd like to chat some time, looks like we have some things in common. 😁

Nice to get my 1st reply back to a reply. Lol. Yeah going to my happy place is really the best thing I can do. A lot of times I have to sit in bed or on the side of the road with the dread/doom feeling, cold sweats, rapid heart beat and thoughts of dying. I'm always alone when it happens too. Hydroxyzine like I said works sometimes and I take it 3x a day. Never have I tried Xanex. What does that do? Is it for people like us?

Hey! You're the highest of my matches. I see you have bipolar and GAD like I do. I believe you've had it about 8 years longer than I. (Diagnosed) Are there any tips you yourself have when you feel a panic/anxiety attack coming? I can pop a hydroxyzine and it may or may not help but what I do is think of my happy place and go there visually and take deep breaths in through my nose and breathe out through my mouth. I do this about 5 to 8 times. It works sometimes. Then sometimes I end up going to the ER just to be checked out. I truly hate the anxiety. My bipolar is my evil, money loving twin. I am completely opposite of my normal self while being manic. I get that way a lot. I've gotten to where it's hard to fight my urges. I'm being tried on different meds next month to see if that will help me better. I just feel as if nobody understands me but I forget I'm not alone. There are others. Sorry for the long post. I got carried away and we'll, wanted to be clear.
