I wonder if you would be disappointed in me for talking to my GP about a short term Rx for anxiety meds. I don't know if she'd even do it or not. I'm working so hard at everything we've talked about this go-around but it's hard. My anxiety still gets the best of me sometimes. I was feeling like such a failure at life earlier, so SICK of myself, my inability to make and follow through on adult decisions (well many anyway, I have made and followed through on a couple lately but not nearly enough) and mad at myself for feeling so overwhelmed by everything.... one little innocuous seeming thing can set it off.... I got through it after it happened earlier today, I said Artie stop this, BREATHE dammit, and I stopped what I was doing, closed my eyes, and took a few deep breaths and said to myself "Things always work out. Things always work out. Things always work out." And I was able to calm myself down eventually. I just wish my brain would stop manufacturing this anxiety in the first place.
