It sounds like a lot of anxiety... Have you ever considered an anxiety medication? That might be one thought...

Hi Elana
Thank you for your thoughts. It means alot to know I am not alone in this. I have seen my therapist 3 days in a row with all this, today she is supposed to call and check in with me. I am taking valium for anti anxiety right now, although I have to say it isnt helping me much , seems like my anxiety level is out weighing the benefits of the medication. I am trying to hang on. but this morning , on top of everything I am having to cope with my husband abusing his medication. He is OCD and schizoeffective. He ran out of his antivan and thought he could take his seroquel for his anxiety and so for the past couple of nights he has gone without his seroquel, now he is a mess, both of us together being a mess at the same time has to equal disaster at some point. I don't know how much of this I can cope with. Dear lord how much can one person handle?
