I'm struggling here. Big time with this anxiety. I am at work. I've already snapped at a coworker because he asked me to do...a part of my job! I have a lot of race thoughts today, feeling itchy and just kind of gross. I am coming off my meds and I am having a heck of a time managing today. Deep breathing isn't really working. Any other ideas? I am fighting the tears im so frustrated.

Sounds very uncomfortable, to say the least.
Have you been using clonazepam as a prn? Are you tapering too quickly? Is you pdoc avail to help should you continue to have difficulties? Be kind to yourself.  WC |

Thanks, WC. I'm off the clonazepam now, haven't taken it since February (guess I should change my signature, huh? ) I have been thinking about the clonazepam all morning. I know it would totally do the trick but I have to try to do life without-- plus I don't have access to it at work but I don't know that I would take it as I'm trying to come off everything. I'm off the ability now too and working on tapering off the lithium. I don't know how I'm going to do life without meds on days like this. I don't want to fail, I have to learn to deal and I dont know how.
I think about getting & being pregnant on top of this and the thought scares me to pieces...how Will I ever be able to do this? I could call Pdoc I guess. Maybe she would have some suggestions.
