Hi Barry, I was once an outgoing, charismatic girl with a future full of hope. Actually, I am still those things but my life has been put on hold by my anxiety disorder, panic disorder and severe depression. Last year I had a nervous breakdown and I am struggling to get back to who I am meant to be. I am 30 years old and had to move back in with my parents. 10 years ago, when this was all beginning, I had such a hopeful future. I had gotten into one of the best engineering schools in Wisconsin as I am very intelligent and have always been a very good student.
I appealed to Dr. Phil for help and actually got a call from producers. Things were looking good but they decided to do a show on specific phobias instead of general disorders and had a guest on that was scared of clowns. I was so disheartened but I guess it makes for better TV.
I will make a long story short by saying that I have gone to lots of traditional therapy (which I can't afford since it is hard to hold a job), taken all kinds of psych. meds and tried crawling into a hole (which thankfully my mother won't let me do). I can't wait to get my life back and I would like to go to an inpatient program that specializes in these mental disorders. They run $30k+ per month (generally you will go in for 1 month). I have done quite a bit of research and have found 2 programs. One is http://www.bridgestorecovery.com/, the other is http://www.sierratucson.com/.
Please, please, please help me get my life back on track. If you are interested in hearing more about why I became like this or anything else, please contact me.

i don't know about what i think, but you sound pretty put together to me, why don't you try natural solutions, did you read a Hal Lindsey book, or something concerning the so called end times, bet you did. stay the hell away from trash books and people that couldn't care less if you jumped out a window. If your depressed than masterbate, it works, for axiety, drink a beer or smoke a joint, that should work, i bet your creative so create, don't fall into this trap, your wasting your life and DR PHIL IS A CONTROL NUT.
