I am 21 years old have a 2 year old daughter. I am completely overwhelmed to the point of having panic attacks, seizures, and thoughts of suicide. My husbands in jail til Sept, and in the past 3 mos, hell would be envious of my life. I havent seen my daughter in 3 wks, ive broke my wrist, fractured my ankle, got bit by a brown recluse and got blod poisoning, have had 27 seizures, sleep 2 hrs a night (if lucky), have nowhere to live, eat only every few days(lac of money not disorder), have panic attacks, work all the time, etc. I really need someone to talk to because I am completely alone for now.

Hi fireinsid,

You have definitely had your share of recent trauma!  It is good to share your experiences and thoughts here butI also just wanted to make sure that you are receiving some type of professional support.

If not yet - please be sure to find a doctor/therapist that you are able to relate to.  

Are you on any medications i.e. for the panic attacks or the seizures?  If so you need to let your doctor know that these symptoms are not well controlled.  

If you would like information on dealing with the panic attacks, we have a great sister site - www.thepaniccenter.net  - It is designed to help people deal with panic and anxiety.  Sometimes just learning more about the disorder can be helpful.

Please keep us posted as to how things are going.  Hope to hear from you soon.

Casey
