So I'm stressing that they are going to be taken away from me. I'm working on getting them a home and have made Flyers with their pictures and put them up at my land preserve . We've gotten good people in the past for our rescue bunnies and cats. But now I'm worried about one of them who is a little more wild than the other who has never lived in a home before- will he be able to be in a home? And can we trap the second one in time for the date to be neutered? It's all overwhelming and I'm stressing out. These are my kids.
I thank you for doing what you can for these animals. I got one of my cats from someone like you. I hope this works out well for all of you.

Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you adopted your "kid". Let's hope for a home for these two.
Thanks for this!

My husband is not getting home from work until about 7:30 or later tonight. Not looking forward to being alone in the house when it's dark out. My fear of a "presence" will kick in, especially since I had a conversation with my husband's daughter over the weekend about the presence she had in her house, which she was finally able to get rid of.

I will survive, just as I did when he was gone to Canada for 5 days, but not happily.

Saw my pdoc yesterday & I am changing my propranolol to use prn for social anxiety & am going to try Buspar-feel good today but was very anxious as usual in Dr office & was getting triggered by some things. I had a journal with me so I channeled all that anxiety into writing & wound up with some cool stuff & it was so much better than just sitting there all twitchy & freaking out.

I took 30 mg of hydroxyzine. As the day wore on the anxiety has gotten much worse and the freezing cold is hard to take. The heater should arrive tomorrow.

I'm just trying hard not to think. It comes in waves of panic if I do. So I'm distracting myself and telling myself not to think. I'm also working on ways to work out this problem and being proactive. That helps a little and I have support from some of the neighbors.

Just come out of job interview and still feel quite jittery. I do hope I get it but at the same time feel like I've lost confidence since not being successful in other interviews. Don't want to ruminate on stuff so a bit of self soothing and being kind to myself is the plan for the rest of the day!

Anxious about taking King Kitty to the vet. I know it's going to be hell getting him into the cat carrier. I don't think he's sick but I'm worried anyway. My mother thinks he's lost weight.

I went to my family doctor yesterday and he prescribed Escitalopram 10mg for my anxiety and panic attacks and also a sleeping pill zopiclone to help me sleep through the night. I feel a bit relieved he's trying to help me. He's going to look into other counselling for me since I haven't had any luck getting ahold of any of the resources given to me.

King Kitty's vet visit went swimmingly the other day. No problem getting him into the carrier. Better yet, he's in fabulous shape.

I had to drive to a new address last night and it was sudden. Oh, the anxiety that produced! And **** You, Google Maps, for taking me to the wrong destination, in a roundabout way, no less!
I'd never used my Android for GPS before and that first certainly wasn't a ringing endorsement. Thankfully I had a "real" GPS system in the car as well. That one actually took me to the correct place...

Had to give a business presentation today. Boy was that nerve racking. I was shaking throughout the entire thing. Nobody seemed to notice though. I managed to give a pretty good presentation.
