I'm gonna try making banana bread sometime this month. I bought a 5-speed KitchenAid hand mixer so I can finally do it

I feel stupid for contacting my psychiatrist today and telling him that I need more Klonopin. I only take 1.5 mg. I mean it's not a ridiculously high amount or anything. He prescribed it. I feel like I just get so incredibly anxious without it that it's not worth the pain. For clarification's sake I don't take more than he prescribed. I am proposing I stay on 1.5 mg of Klonopin and he wants me to go down on it. I don't know how he'll react. I'm scared he'll get mad. I also contacted other psychiatrists today. I feel ridiculously stupid for that. Also I know that people lose their patience with me pretty easily. I feel like my psychiatrist and I aren't a good fit. What a thing to realize after 7 years of working together! I feel like I wasted those years. My anxiety has been so bad in the past. And we did nothing about it! I just was so anxious. And nothing got me through it except gritting my teeth. Now I feel like with the Klonopin I can at least be myself. Is this wrong to think?

I was looking at chamomile extract and pills but there doesn't seem to be much reviews on Amazon.
Chamomile tea is great. My mom used to make it for me when my heart was beating too fast.. + A lorazepam. I took a 0.25mg clonazepam because my mind felt cooked with a little objective psychosis about the world/conspiracies but it made me tired so I lied down for a while. I think chamomile tea really helps with dissociation. I think cuz the main chemical in it is "apigenin" - "Apigenin-treated mice showed improved memory, learning, and activity of the brain cell-birth BDNF pathway" What I need to do I think is increase BDNF in my brain.. I might look at nootropics for that. I feel like my mind is in decay. I feel much more spiritually inclined when I research about herbal plants etc.. Chamomile tea feels like I'm in a meditative state - The cup being hot to the touch (And cold feelings) can help with dissociation because it focuses your awareness -

If you’re one of those people that can keep these dose at 1.5 you’re probably OK. Problem with Benzos is tolerance.....for most people eventually 1.5 won’t be enough they’ll feel terrible anxious on 1.5.....they’ll need more and a reduction is a nightmare.

One more week then I'll start getting my full paychecks weekly and I can pay people back for helping me thru the rough times.
I ended up getting another deposit on my EBT so I had like $400+ dollars. I visited my mom and sister for the 4th and mom and me went to this pricey grocery store and I let mom buy a bunch of stuff. I can't spend all that money by myself. Now I have a lot of food in my kitchen and its making me anxious because I don't want it to waste. But lately I've been eating very little and eating 1x a day mainly in the evening I don't know if it's stress or what __________________

I've been a little preoccupied with my weight which isn't good so I need to nip that in the bud. I've been in remission from my eating disorder for years

I hope everything will go well with my move. It's tomorrow! I hope everything will be all right with the new roommate.
I hope everyone is ok. It's been very nice out all this summer so far. |

Feeling really hurt and lonely without my little dog. I'm going to go over to my sister's today to watch movies so I won't be alone.

No benzo last night, I couldn't fall asleep, had to take a remeron. I'll try going to bed early tonight to give myself more down time.
Other than that I'm more stable than ever before. If I can get off that benzo then that would be a solid long term cocktail for years to come. Finished that Ptsd book. Learned a lot but I need to unpack more of my trauma. Maybe I need to write a tree chart of logic and lived experience. |

I'm moving tomorrow!!!!! I confirmed it with the SW. I'm not sure about the time, it depends on when the person in there is going home. And I forgot to ask the new room number.
I'll have only one roommate there. Hopefully she'll let me close my curtains. The  won't let me touch the curtain in here. So glad I'm going!!! The SW said I should organize my stuff. I don't have anywhere to pack it though. Hopefully they'll move my furniture.
