My anxiety is pretty bad today. I’ve only had black tea to drink not any coffee or soda. I’ve had my heartbeat under control though. I tried splitting my Xanax in half. So I took four .5 throughout the day instead of 1.mil twice a day. It didn’t really do anything for my anxiety. Any of the .5’s. I know I’m dealing with PMS still. And I took my Geodon at 1AM. So I could probably use it now.

I don’t think there’s anything legit to be anxious about today. So I assume it’s just PMS.

I have an appointment today. So I feel some anxiety. I'm trying to stay calm and tell myself that I can do it. I wish it was a non-event. But it's a big deal. I have to take my cat to the vet. He hates it when I pick him up. I have to get him in the carrier. I'm afraid of dealing with that. It seems like it's always traumatic. I wish vets could make house calls. At least I managed to shower yesterday. And when I get to the vet's office, I can stay in my car. I just have this sick feeling in my chest. I guess I can try more sleep.

I had health anxiety today which I think was understandable and legit. My other anxiety about general stuff was ok.

My anxiety isn’t too bad today. But I cut out coffee on the 4th. And it’s been kind of difficult. I didn’t know caffeine withdrawals can make you anxious and jittery. I thought cutting out coffee would help with my anxiety. Yesterday after some struggle I drank a mug of black tea and it helped a lot with everything. But I’m averaging about 2-2.5 milligrams of Xanax a day. Which is more then if I were drinking tons of coffee.

My anxiety is pretty sucky right now. I’m just nervous about my next appointment and I feel weird after my doctors appointment this morning but I don’t really know why. If it was the guy in the elevator and office or the EKG and 6 minute walk. But I just feel weird and dirty and I don’t know how to approach my next appointment in a couple hours.

I have had anxiety recently. But I try to pretend that things are easier & don't bother me out there.

I managed a really busy day yesterday, going out most of the day, with only a couple panic attacks. I cal that a win.

My anxiety was ok all day. Tonight it was kind of bad after my Geodon. I think it may have just been nausea because a zofran helped and I didn’t need a Xanax.

My anxiety isn’t too bad today. I split up my 2mil of Xanax into 4 .5 doses and it’s been helping a lot.

I’m still doing the 2mil Xanax split up into 4’s. It’s still working great. I didn’t really have any anxiety today.

I took a .5 Xanax just now because my anxiety was weird. I took my 2 mil cut into 4’s but that last one didn’t do anything. I drank 10oz of water with this .5 so I’m hoping to feel some relief soon.

I was kind of anxious this morning from all the caffeine I had to try to help me get rid of my severe drowsiness from a med. I took 1.5 mil of Xanax around noon so right now my anxiety isn’t too bad. I have one more .5 to take later tonight.

I am not having any existential crisis type anxiety about my old therapist today. Basically it’s just med and caffeine related.
