Sending virtual hugs to you BluAngel. Remember, these are just thoughts...they can not harm you. Take a deep breath in and then breathe out. You are never alone either - God is always with you, my dear :)

I think we are on the same page..........I am weaning off of Effexor and starting a new med. Feeling a bit tough but trying to keep on going.

I am going to add a couple more links you may find helpful:

I have had 4 therapists over the years but right now I have a realy wise psychiatrist who helps keep me on track.

Keep on doing what is working for you.

Kindly,

Kitt

Hey guys. Thank you for your replies. Didnt have those links but will def. go! I know Im experiencing add'l ext. stressors @ this time, physically, financially, having to move to sisters becuz of them. Upper MI n Im in TN. Thought of separation from sons is killing me! But-wondering if my meds r not working well anymore. Zoloft 60 mg Buspar lg time. Lately 6 mg ativan. Know its indiv. trial n error but anything seem to b working well 4 you guyz? Tried Paxil Prozac Lex Elavil Trazedone. Need more grief counseling I know. It was one thing when the anx was low to mod even tho it was daily n attacks were far apart. Its so, so much worse despite using my prev. successful tactics. I want my life back or @ least functional. Sorry, tough day. Migraine. Not climbing the walls tho! Grateful huggz.
