Finally, Saturday! Been devoting a lot of time to self-care Thursday night and last night, so I'm more or less unwound from this past work week, which was relatively stressful. Made it to a gathering at a family friend's house to watch college football. I was a little nervous beforehand, but I socialized what I feel is an appropriate amount and am comfortable now. No need to medicate today.
 I'm relieved as I'm trying not to depend on them too heavily and only for making a living, which is necessary.

It was a fun but hectic day. Celebrated my husband's birthday. We went to a series of caves which was kind of creepy but cool. Hopefully won't have any bad dreams tonight.

I don't normally have anxiety attacks but right now i'm almost on the verge of paranoia. Last time this happened my entire body started vibrating like i was freezing and i could hardly move.

I had a quiet day. Did a load of laundry and puttered on the computer. Anxiety struck at midday, and couldn't do much about it except sit through it.

Processed and uploaded more photos onto my Flickr site. it was still nice to see roses this time of year.
Today was the first day of taking Artane. The anxiety seemed to have died down a little bit. |

I took an Ativan for the first time today. It might have helped me get out of here but I'm not sure i could still take the stairs on my feet.
All I really felt capable of is crawling under my blanket to go to sleep again. I'm sleeping so much it's really alarming. |

Today was rough. Have grumpy family members to deal with. Puttered on computer the rest of the day. Hopefully I'll get some sleep tonight.

Yesterday was a really good day. Today I can't stop thinking and worrying and I'm really just about to give up.

Haven't been on here for a bit, but I'm doing OK. Tried a new supplement for a few weeks for depression, seems to be working. 😊

My anxiety is feeling very physical lately - restless core, restless legs, arms, ankles etc. I feel horrible.

Spent the day frustrated and confused. Now trying to calm down. At least I got a load of laundry done.

A bit less of a bad day today. Still feel very alone, even here. But not as much worry this evening. Got to talk to my grandmother. She knows how to keep my mind off things.

No anxiety today. Busy, busy, which makes things better. Now to keep at it now that I'm home.

Wanted to post earlier but for some reason I couldn't. My anxiety has been terrible in the mornings lately. It's making me paranoid about being in my apartment. I'm twisting everything I hear and it's making me think my upstairs neighbor is doing something against me. She's always there, always awake. She's awake all day, I know from my boyfriend being home. She's always awake when we get up at 4am. She was awake today when we got up at 2:30am. I don't get it, and I don't know why I feel like it's directed at me, but I do.

Slow day today. The Artane seems to help with the restlessness. I slept a lot this afternoon.

Horrible anxiety today. Boyfriend is out of town and I was dumb enough to watch the Walking Dead (I'm very impressionable..) Ended up having a panic attack, called my mom and she spent an hour talking me back down. I've started obsessively checking everything...closets, rooms, under the bed...to be sure I'm safe. It's a bad day.

because it's very cold outside, it is making me feel extremely agoraphobic.
earlier it almost got to me and I swear I could feel rain i was about to freak and managed to get myself to a room where I couldn't feel the cold... all good. but it's still bothering me |
