As this day has gone along I've been feeling more and more anxious. Ugh. I'm not exactly sure why I'm not feeling okay, but somehow things just don't feel right. Hate when this happens, 'cause I never know how to stop the possible fall...... Gonna try and keep it together and hope for the best

Was feeling fine when I went to bed last night, but about 2 hours after falling asleep, I was awoken by the worst headache of my life (probably a migraine). I had it for the rest of the night...I couldn't sleep more than half an hour before it would wake me up again. It has been hurting on and off all day. My stomach has also felt strange today. I am not sure if my stomach issues are due to me being tired from not sleeping much or from the high anxiety of having to return to work tomorrow or a combination of both. The thought of returning to work tomorrow makes me depressed and anxious. So much so that I am having sui thoughts. Trying to distract myself right now by being on here and watching football (packers are losing )

Hi agma.....So sorry you're going through all this, and sending prayers your way. I relate so much about the bad headache. I suffer from terrible migraines that come in clusters that can literally go on daily for weeks.....but the worst kind are the ones that start during the night I hope some kind of comfort comes to you soon ~whimsy

Back pain woke me up early this morning, couldn't get back to sleep, so like usual I gave up. Got up feeling pretty iffy....and exhausted, and hurting badly. Brings up so many bad thoughts and feelings about how I can't afford health insurance any more.....feeling so helpless and alone in dealing with life.Hope others are feeling better than this.

Just checking in briefly, so I feel less alone. I'm getting to be too comfortable staying home, being alone, and just reading and watching TV. I know I have to not stay at the computer because it kills my back and neck. My goal for today is to get to the pool and go swimming. I'm leaving in 20 minutes. I didn't want to go, but managed to talk myself into it. If I don't get out and exercise, then I will really deteriorate.

Main reason I came to PC is because I am getting too fond of isolating and just living in a dream world of my own. I always have had social phobia. Time to get going.

Hi Steve.....I completely get what you're saying, as I have so many regrets about choices I've made in my life, and especially when I'm in the grip of depression, it can be really hard to make peace with the past. I imagine you're familiar with this prayer, but I always feel it's worth repeating. (I know I have to remind myself of it a lot)....but personally I think it's one of the wisest things ever expressed. "God grant me the serenity to accept what I cannot change, the courage to change what I can....and the wisdom to know the difference." Best wishes to you ~whimsy

I'm not sure I'm cut out for this whole "daily" thing but things have been going better than last time. Getting a few things done helps my motivation and confidence, though this past week my memory has been shocking. I read about loss of memory in depression being due to a lack of ability to focus, which I guess is true. I feel so stressed out I'm not remembering what happened...

Idk about you, but the first day always causes my anxiety to rise. You never know exactly what your in for until your experiencing it. My thoughts are with you. I hope this is the ONE for you!

I don't know how to explain how I feel. I've been on the Zoloft for a little under two weeks now. I think it's just the adjustment period, but this is weird. I should be thrilled by how little depression I've experienced, especially last two or three days, but somehow I don't know if I feel anything. I mean, it's obviously better than the way I usually feel, but Idk if I feel anything or not.

Tru,

I usually get this crazy numb feeling everytime i have gotten used to a med. Couldn't laugh or cry even if i wanted to. Adjusting to meds has never been a good experience for me. Always took me a little over a month to adjust

Hi Turtleboy....So sorry things are feeling that bad for you. And there's no need to apologize..... if you can't be honest about your thoughts here, then what's the point? Sending good thoughts your way ~whimsy ps....Hope some kind of comfort comes as soon as possible.
