11:30 p.m. and Im finally home from work! (-: So as my anxiety has decreased a decent amount recently i'd say?, ive only taken 1 Xanax from 3-4 a day over the past few weeks - so proud! I usually take it when I wake up in the mornings because im usually very shakey no matter what. this morning I took my what it seems has become my daily dose of Excedrin as ive been waking up with a headache almost everyday. I went about
my day and on my way to work at around 4pm, I started feeling anxiety creep up on me probably because I was rushing to get to work and adrenaline was rushing. so I took a half, didn't work, and by the time I got to work I needed the other half )-: was kind of discouraged, but then again relieved because then I was fine again, I felt okay. Maybe if I didn't take the Excedrin with the caffeine in it, I wouldn't have had to take it? I don't know. I was just so happy when I felt normal! Also ive been taking it for about
a year now (off and on) and maybe 6-7 months everyday 4x a day at its worst, so yes I have come a long way and im proud! When I was taking klonopin long term 4 years ago, I found out I was pregnant with my second daughter, stopped taking it that morning I found out and I was totally fine from then on. i think that's why I felt so discouraged today when I felt I HAD to take it because I was aiming for a whole day without \\-: Yesterday my (new) psychologist said he's going to work with me using therapeutic something? (haha) and said it doesn't happen overnight but anywhere from 6 months to a year most likely improvement will be greatly noticed. so im excited to work with him too! ill be seeing him every Friday now. im willing to try anything to get BETTER! anything to have my life back, id give the world! to be anxiety free and happy again, oh what a life! (-:
hope everyone's night is going great! (and anxiety free of course!!!)
