Oh, how wretched I feel. My throat feels like all I can manage to get down it is water and my chest feels like an elephant is sitting on it. I've already taken two doses of Clonazepam 0.5 mg and Lyrica* 150 mg, but the oppression continues. Yes, it is bad enough to try anything to make it go away. I'm going to go mediate over my Rosary. That, and some deep breathing might help. I hate myself when I get like this. I feel so stupid and weak.

Please try not to feel stupid and weak. You are ill and need help just like anyone else with any illness. Are you getting therapy?

You are not stupid or weak, you are just going through a rough time. Don't be so hard on yourself

It's sooo hard when the anxiety hits. I think it's more difficult to cope with than the depression. All I've been able to do is take my prn med.
I' m so sorry you are going through this. I hope your rosary helps. Keep posting and let us know if you feel better |

Awww you're not stupid or weak. We all go through rough times. I hope your rosary and the meditation helps too. Just try and relax and breathe.
Hope you feel better soon. Hugs.

That feeling of "the elephant on the chest" is something to be concerned about, in my view. That's often a feeling described by someone on the verge of a heart attack.
Be careful, please. Make sure it isn't something physical going on in your chest. |
