My anxiety is surrounded by sad feelings. I keep hoping I'm getting stronger & I'm just not there yet. I keep getting these moments when I can see ahead & I can feel how it's going to be.

My anxiety was pretty bad yesterday, but this morning it is fine. I will try to do things to calm myself today. Soothing stuff.

I'm suffering now. I just took a Klonopin. I'm waiting for it to help me. I may have to take a nap.

My anxiety was controlled through valium and bottled water. Its been ok for the past 1.5 hours but its been sucky off and on all day. I have totally avoided the news and have not asked for any updates.

I'm upset and anxious because I called my pharmacy because none of my prescriptions are ready and they were sent 5 days ago. My SSRI is not ready until Monday afternoon and by then I would have none and my klonopin cannot be filled until they called my doctor on Monday.

Drinking a mountain dew after I had already taken all my valiums was probably not smart. So my anxiety is kinda sucky. I still have my melatonins and geodon though. So hopefully I can get some relief.

I'm going to call early tomorrow my doctor because I don't think the pharmacy will called them. I have sort of tension headache because I'm anxious.

I feel better knowing that I don't have cancer and can resume my meds much sooner then I was expecting. It makes me feel calmer about world events. I am just a bit nervous about "the procedure" as my doctor called it thats going to happen on Thursday. I've never donated blood but I do get pretty noticeably woozy every time I get my blood drawn and thats less then 2 minutes, this will be an hour. So I'm trying not to panic but at least a lot of my other anxietys have cleared up.

I went to pick up my meds three days ago. I still feel a bit of tension from the whole ordeal.

My anxiety has been much better since I got yesterday over with. Also ever since my doctor raised one my meds I've been able to tolerate caffeine. So even though I had a can of Pepsi, a Mountain Dew, and half a 2 liter of Diet Coke, my anxiety was still fine. As long as I drink all it in the AM and then drink a lot of water after.

I thought it would be a good idea to drink a can of soda on top of the anxiety I already had when I had already taken the majority of my meds for the day. Ehhh.

My anxiety was tough all day and the only thing I can think of is that I took a different kind of melatonin last night. or I ran out of the 50mil topamaxs and instead of taking 50mil 3 times a day I now take three 25 mil twice a day. I can always just take two 25mil three times a day if I'm going to complain about it.

Anxiety is my middle name. But I sort of did ok today, after a very difficult morning. Honestly, I'm feeling very grateful for the moments of relief. @Mountaindewed, thank you for holding down the fort for the rest of us the way you do!

My overall anxiety was ok today. I have to see my dumb primary tommrow though (which was not planned until today) because he won't prescribe my anti nauesa med because nausea for 2 months isn't normal. But anxiety does cause nausea... At the same time I do know my nausea seems to come on more after I eat then when I get anxious. But now going to the doctor has become as anxiety provoking as going to work used to be except that work didn't involve pain.. At least I have therapy in the morning so I can discuss things with her.

Oh, my goodness. It sure can get awfully difficult, can't it? So we just keep on the best we can. Tomorrow will be better.

Anxiety helps motivate, but still too much anxiety is not fun. Depression and anxiety together seem to be an oxymoron, but it makes sense. I’m depressed, have little energy and no “get up and go”, now I’m anxious and need to get all these things accomplished before such and such time.
