I passed out last week. I realized i wasn't drinking enough fluids but it scares me so much because my bf described it as a seizure. Saying this here isn't helping. The hospital seems to think of me as a mental patient. There are also embarrassing physical problems that I'd rather wait about because my doctor is on holiday. This isn't helping being on psych central right now but i could use some hugs.

My appointment with T brought down some of my anxiety, but not much. There's still everything else hanging over me though. At her suggestion I called my PCP this afternoon to see if he will write a prescription for lexapro again, he did once a long time ago. Unfortunately I have to wait til morning to hear anything back.

I hope everyone is feeling better now, but I understand if you don't.

The noise from downstairs has been too loud ever since I got up around 90 minutes ago.

I wish they were gone. They've been repeating their playbook and now I just turn the TV or music up and don't care. What I care about is their lousy bass and drums punching into my walls. I want them gone in the worst way.

So, i sleep like an initial 4 or whatever hours, and then I still feel exhausted and I fall asleep again and sleep 6 to 8 more hours, the whole day away.

Pdoc appt. isn't until later this afternoon. Need to find something to do. She's not going to be happy with me dropping one med and lowering another but it seems to help bring the anxiety down. I just wish I wasn't so agitated and restless.

Pdoc appt. went well. I had a fairly productive day but my daughter just told me some stuff about her boyfriend and I'm stressed out again. He lives with us because of a domestic violence situation with his father. But he's not doing well with school and we agreed to keep him if he would go. So it looks like another meeting with him to reiterate the rules and practice some tough love.

I've been so anxious and agitated all weekend. It seems to be worse than it was before, so most likely a side effect of my new med. I'm trying to stick it out in hopes that it goes away after a while, but it feels horrible. It's a wonder I've been sleeping lately.

I hope the new jar of Australian Dream will be helpful for my knees. I forgot one other thing I wanted the Walgreens guy to add. And yes, he's the same guy who makes fun of how I talk. Why is life so hard?

My anxiety over this delivery attempt is off the scales bad. I don't know why. Maybe all my anxiety is wrapped up in it. It's not such a big deal (except it sure feels like it is). If I could just stop feeling so horribly nervous.

ETA oops, i meant the UPS delivery, not the pharmacy delivery.

Meeting with daughter's boyfriend went okay. He was shellshocked but took notes and hopefully will do something with himself. We were all nervous but it went well. Now just need to calm down and relax.

Yes (raising my hand!). I have stayed in and alone for many of my most recent years. I'm not sure how likely I am to ever pull out of it. (Anxiety, misery, etc.)

I do. I'm basically a shut-in unless I have to go somewhere, and then my husband accompanies me so I don't get scared. It really sucks.

a contingency plan is now in place should the situation I fear arise. Thus, everything is now in place. A little anxiety still exists but I think it is normal and healthy. I am happy.

Out of control today. I feel like I won't be able to accomplish anything and I am dreading going to work tonight.

A lot of anxiety today, but it's starting to go down since I took another Neurotin. It just seems that little things trigger me and it takes a good long time to calm back down. My T mentioned using DBT skills and my pdoc upped my Viibryd. I just wish I could get to the root of it so it will stop.

I feel like I'm crawling out of my skin. I'm pretty sure this is a side effect of my new med, but I don't know if it's going to go away or not? I hope it does, I can't stand feeling like this. I am so agitated and restless and I just can't focus. Every new thing just feels like a 1,000 ton weight on me. I don't want to stop this med but I don't want to keep feeling like this. I just don't want to have to start over again.

You said you go out sometimes. Does any of your meds help with that?

Has anything helped with it?

I don't know what you are going through, if you want to talk about it feel free to PM me if you need an ear to listen or a shoulder to cry on. I've been feeling very defeated recently too.

Meds do help, and my friend helps a lot too, with my panic over the long stairs here. Do you have anyone who could help you get out the door?

I only go out with my husband. The meds don't really help with that.
