Well, tonight's the night - - my husband will be gone overnight so I need to live with my darkness-at-night phobia. Just trying not to think of it. I thought he was going to be back home before dark tomorrow, but I just found out this morning that he won't be back til late into the evening tomorrow too. I have the feeling I will be coming on this board for extra support.

I'm sad and jittery about the fact that today was messed up when it may otherwise have been productive. Yesterday I experimented with taking a Cymbalta thinking I'd give them a try and see if the anxiety improved. But I got very dizzy on it and more anxious. I just felt weird, which I could stand for a week or so to see if it got better but I was too unsteady on my feet, that really is hard for me to handle. So I missed this morning that I could have washed my hair because it was finally warmer in my apartment. There was loud noise from upstairs from between 12:00 am to 4 am and every time I dropped off to sleep I was awoken again. This place is the definition of hell.

Allergies are killing me now. I've send out an email polling all my family members to see if anyone knows medication that works.

I drove my husband & myself back from SF after his surgery-no panic, no tears, no freaking out. The last time I did this was 16 months ago & I was an absolute wreck (pardon the pun). I saw my tdoc yesterday & told him I can see such a difference in my anxiety-makes me hopeful about my other issues as well-hugs to all

Not sure why, I'm nervous about seeing my partner today. I've postponed until after lunch. Maybe I'm anxious about whether his mother will be there or not, never felt good with her around. I always felt like I had to be careful of myself because she's so easy to offend.

Well, I made it through last night! And the dogs didn't want to stay on the bed with me too long, which worked out just fine because all I did was lock the bedroom door.
My husband should be home around 7:30 tonight. Not looking forward to 5-7:30 tonight again, but I made it through last night so I can do it tonight too. Not happily, but I can do it. |

Having a lot of anxiety about whether I can wash my hair today. It's sunny right now but my back is worse than ever. I have to do it leaning over the kitchen sink.

It's my mother's birthday and I, along with my sister and brother-in-law (possibly my step-niece, too), are taking her out to dinner. I should shower but I don't know if I'll be able to. I'm also concerned about finding a clean shirt that is somewhat nice...
Of course the actual "leaving the house" part is a problem as well as driving to whatever restaurant she picks... I hate being freaked out by what should be a lovely time out! __________________ * Panic Disorder w/ Agoraphobia * Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder * Hoarder * Fibromyalgia * Major Depressive Disorder w/ Recurrent Major Depressive Episodes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I exist here.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME?!
sorry I'm just scared and frustrated. Another lonely day, just me and my dog. I feel so heavy for a whole day again. my legs feel so heavy like I would be walking in a lake of mud or sth. my whole body is heavy. even when I sit this damn pressure is crushing me. disney songs on yt and I did some work out in my room. drank a lot of water, yet my lips are so dry. took my dog just outside. and when I was outside I had to come home quickly coz this heavy feelings triggered panic. now still this feelings, and strange feeling in my head. seriously what is wrong with me, even pdoc says it's strange, others don't have feelings like this.. I just want to know.... __________________ |

had such high anxiety yesterday about being home alone in the dark when my husband was out of town but, despite the fact I'll be alone in the dark again tonight for a few hours, I'm just not freaking out about it. I proved to myself yesterday that I can do it!

Only had one anxiety episode today-I was trying to take a nap (which I almost never do) & I heard someone knocking on our front door & voices. My heart started pounding & thoughts racing-knee jerk PTSD from when I was hoarding & the house was OMG terrible & someone knocking on the door was one of my greatest fears. It dissipated quickly though-maybe a couple of minutes did some deep breathing, reminded myself that is not my reality anymore & my husband answered the door & it was OK. Hugs to all who are struggling this evening
