    OMG FINALLY I Can Write My Success Story

    @Tamara G Hi I am new here too (almost 3 weeks) and I also have a history of panic disorder too. I think you should try to speak with your dr about a different antidepressant. I was researching and came across celexa as one with a connection to tinnitus. I am not a dr but you might speak to...

    Life Goes On

    So sorry that this has happened to your beloved dog, Ping. Horrible and sooooo devastatingly sad. As a dog lover and owner, I really truly do understand. It is a profound loss. Again, although there really are no words, Im so sorry.

    Possible Sinus Infection — What to Do?

    Hearing Test Results Asymmetric?

    @sakrt I agree with you 100%. Its all very difficult and each speciality doc only focuses on their box as you say. And if it doesnt fit, they decide its anxiety. One time my son had a terrible sinus infection and the ENT didnt see it with his scope so he decided my son was "faking" to get out of...

    How Long Will It Take Until I No Longer Have Fear and Anxiety?

    @Jason37 what you said is so true. I didnt freak out until i looked into it. And i think a lot of us on here are the more anxious type? I am. Not with everything but once i started looking into it my anxiety went nuts. I also know people who can just ignore it and right now, 2 weeks in i feel...
