who says a little self-medicating can't do the trick. My coping skills are out the door so numb feels pretty darn good.

I'm hanging in there. Wishing I could just sleep this whole thing away. Being awake brings bad thoughts and the feeling of just like I'm literally going insane. I can't do this, I can't cope with all these fluctuating emotions.

I know the feeling. I just had this discussion with my husband last night. I'm like, the anxiety and OCD is wearing me down right now and it's causing me to want to zone out. For me in the past, that has been dangerous. My pdoc and I are going to have to have a serious discussion the next time I see her. This has got to stop!

I know what you mean. My drinking took me to IP a week ago and I just got out Sunday. Haven't had a drink but I've been smoking the whole time. Reality sucks. This reminds me of pink Floyds "comfortably numb". Used to be a screen name of mine too

Feeling ok right now which is good, I need the break. Unfortunately over the past few weeks experiences, this is going to be short lived . I'll enjoy it while it lasts

I checked out early via my Geodon last night but it's prescribed so it felt like it was ok to do.
