As a result of my ridiculous anxiety, I have been having multiple BMs per day, which led to a case of hemorrhoids. I have been treating them with ointment but it hasn't been very helpful - lots of pain and discomfort pretty much all the time.

I read some articles last night, and they pointed me to suppositories. I went to the pharmacy early this morning and picked up a pack, and Hallelujah it worked! After weeks of suffering with these hemorrhoids, I finally have some relief! Looking forward to them finally healing!

Mood-wise, the absence of pain and discomfort is helping - I'm still low but not as low as before. I remembered my Klonopin today, so at least physically, the anxiety symptoms are a little lower, too. I'm still paranoid, and my head tells me everything is ok, but my emotional side is saying 'Beware!'.
