I have been under a lot of stress lately.
Got up this morning to take my heart meds and noticed I hadn't taken anything for Tuesday and Wednesday-- I thought today was Thursday. So I took my meds for today (Wednesday) but have zero recollection of Tuesday. Nothing stands out for me. I have an alarm on my phone for pill times so I don't forget, but can't remember it going off, or shutting it off. I don't know if it is the stress/anxiety, the xanax, or the depressive cycle. Frankly, the stress I am experiencing is really too much. My eye won't stop twitching/spasming. There is no end in sight. The one private pdoc is booking new appointments in December. Grrrr.

I don’t think Xanax would cause you to lose time. Intense stress can do weird things to our brains. We get absent minded, lose focus, etc.
 Is there anything you can do to release the stress? Get some kind of help if you are overloaded with work or home issues? or treat yourself to a “me” day. I don’t know what is causing your stress, but I hope it doesn’t last too long.

Really trying this time. I feel like I could lose. I don't like that. I want help and the lists are too long. Just tired I guess.

Did you take anything like a sleeping pill? That would have caused you to "lose a day"? That's the only time I've lost a day and I was diagnosed previously with extreme stress. Thankfully not so much anymore my mind broke kind of dulled out my stress level.
