I'm doing very poorly today. I've texted a crisis line and made a safety plan. Just feeling really low and hopeless

Jennifer...so glad you recognize that things aren't well before it's too late.

We're here (although I'm rather useless as I have the blues very badly today)

I saw my pdoc today. He took me off one medication (was sleeping 2-3 hours a night). He said besides the underlying depression is 'situational ' depression that is driving me to the edge. Uuummm okay. I feel traumatized from coming so close and am having panic attacks.

I will be ok. I'm headed to Florida Saturday and plan on totally relaxing. Thank you for your support. It meant so much to me.

I'm going to work really hard to cope with situational anxiety and depression. Who knows? I could actually be stable and just not be able to handle situational things. If I got this under control maybe I could go back to work. I really, really dislike being so sensitive and emotional. It doesn't help. I wish I knew the difference long ago. It would have really helped.

Hope everyone is having a good day.

((((Jennifer)))) a former therapist once suggested that when I feel down to put a blanket into a dryer then afterwards wrap that blanket around yourself. Be good to yourself. Is going to talk to someone something you may consider. It does help.

I'm so sorry to read this. Sometimes, I feel low. Sometimes, I feel hopeless when it comes to anxiety. Please keep reaching out. I'm sure you'll eventually feel better.
