I AM A 24 YEAR OLD COUNSELOR AT A YOUTH DETENTION CENTER. I PASS OUT MEDS EVERYDY TO OUR YOUNG CLIENTS AND I HAVE SEEN SOME CLIENTS WHO HAVE MADE UNBELIEVABLE PROGRESS DUE TO THEIR MEDICATIONS. NOW, I ASK FOR MY SELF...I HAVE RECENTLY DIVORCED AFTER A 5 YEARS AND MY JOB IS VERY STRESSFUL. I AM SICK TO MY STOMACH WHEN I THINK ABOUT GOING TO WORK, AND LAST WEEK I HAVE A PANIC ATTACK FOR THE FIRST TIME. I FEEL SICK ALL THE TIME AND I AM ONLY TRULY HAPPY WHEN I AM ON MY SOFA, HIDING FROM THE WORLD...BUT EVEN THEN I AM WORRIED ABOUT EVERY LITTLE THING.I WANT TO FEEL HAPPIER FOR MYSELF AND MY TWO BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS. I AM TOO YOUNG TO BE FEELING THIS OLD. I HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD I HAVE ADD AND CLINICAL DEPRESSION, BUT WAS UNABLE TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH ANY TREATMENT. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME SOME IDEAS ON WHAT IS AVAILABLE FOR ME????
THANKS- SARA
