i never really thought of myself as having anxiety problems.
all i ever really knew was that i hated going to places with alot of people, or traveling to different places that i didnt know, or getting up and talking in front of people!
I never thought that it could ever be social anxiety!
My husband just recently started working for himself, he is home every night now, which is awesome. however for 9 years he wasnt. I was mom and dad! I was a very busy person, I went 90 to nothing and did everything for everyone! Since he has started this new business opportunity, I have found myself very anxious! i am always edgy! i snap at everyone! i cry all the time! nothing is right nothing is wrong! i cant sleep or i sleep too much! i either dont eat or i eat too much!
Last week I had a Panic attack. I have had panic attacks before so I knew what it was and I knew ok! thats it I have to go to the doctor! So off to the doctor I go!
So I am at the doctors office and he gives me this little survey to fill out for social anxiety, panic disorder!
Finally! Now I can understand why when we get in the car to go to a baseball game i break out in a sweat and get all grouchy and act the way i do. Now i can understand! My doctor put me on Zoloft, not for depression, but for anxiety. i am feeling better. I know it isnt a quick fix.
its just another step in my life that i have to take!
