Hi. I am in India. I have my dinner at 10 pm usually. I am usually excited about my meals. But yesterday I had my only meal of the day at 4 pm and am not feeling like eating anything since then. It’s been 20 hours. I also could not sleep the entire night. I felt a weird anxiety that kept me awake. I cleaned my home; reset some furniture but even after that could not sleep. I feel very dissociated and blank. I don’t know if I feel blank or anxious. Can anyone relate?

I'm in the us & this happens to me sometimes. Honestly, generally right before my period or right before i get really sick, but once or twice in my life it was because depression or anxiety. Anyhow, that's rough, would highly recommend looking for ways to increase rest/oxytocin/seratonin.

Is there anything that has been making you feel anxious, specifically? Sometimes, writing down your feelings - both whatever is bothering you and the positive things that you are grateful for - can be helpful in these moments. Writing can be powerful to combat anxiety and other emotionally heavy moments in life. I hope you feel better soon!

Well I recently told a guy I have been seeing I have HSV-2. We have not yet been physical but it’s been heading that direction.

You’d think that since HSV-2 affects 20% of Americans and likely a higher % of gay men, there would be less taboo but it’s hardly ever talked about. Anyone else in my shoes? Or had it disclosed to them?

I manage 2 physician practices and one is extremely toxic. To the point the dr sides with staff even when I am trying to make corrective actions when patient care is in jeopardy.

It’s been extremely stressful and harmful to my ptsd anxiety and depression.

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.

For those who were diagnosed as an adult can you provide some insight into how you were able to obtain a diagnosis. I went to my primary care dr who referred me to another dr who specialized in mental health. He asked me about 5 questions before telling me I should see a neuropsychologist for an official assessment. The referral he gave me is super pricey and apparently isn’t covered by insurance. Is that normal?
