Hi eastern light and welcome!
It sounds like you are doing everything in your power to fight the anxiety and get back on track. Great job on getting treatment and seeing your psychiatrist for help!
Things will get better, but it does take time. Anxiety is something that you will have to work to manage, but improvement will happen, especially with all that you are doing to get recovery.
This is a great place for support and to talk to others who understand what you are going through. We are here to listen and help when we can, so post with us anytime.:)
Your idea about volunteering to help others is a great one! It really does help to get involved with activities that get us outside of ourselves and our problems for awhile. I volunteer for several things and find that I get back way more than I give! Of course, you are wise to wait and give yourself some healing time before you get started...but it is something to look forward to.:)
We are glad that you found us, and look forward to getting to know you better. Post anytime that you need to share, are looking for support, or have questions!
Take care and talk to you soon,
Scaredy Cat
