Hi everyone, I’m an autistic adult in my 30s, and I’m hoping to hear from anyone who has experienced something similar. For some time, I’ve found that wearing traditional taped nappies gives me a genuine feeling of sensory comfort, safety and reassurance. This isn’t sexual, and I don’t have a diagnosed medical need for nappies.

I’ve been taking citalopram 10 mg for 8 weeks now. My anxiety has definitely improved, which is a positive sign, but I still experience a constant feeling of nervousness, inner restlessness, and discomfort every day.

Thankfully, that has improved recently, but I still don’t feel completely normal. I’ve re...
None of this was happening before my HA. I was put on 25mg metoprolol along with other heart meds. About 2 weeks in I was woken suddenly in early morning (4:) with my heart pounding out of my chest, heat spreading across the chest and into upper arms, pulse racing, sweating and extreme anxiety.

Hi I’m 43 and been having various symptoms for about 3 years now. My doctor (a female) keeps telling me because I’m taking the pill I shouldn’t get symptoms! My periods have also changed. I have one day of heavy bleeding and a few days of hardly anything but I still get all the stomach cramps. Has anyone else taking the pill (Microgynon) had any changes?

Hi Everybody.. I’ve just come into my 4th week of taking Fluoxetine 20mg for my anxiety. I suffer with health anxiety quite badly.
