Making it to work everyday now, due to anxiety and nausea I've been late everyday but today I was on time. Pretty proud of myself though getting through the day is still tuff. Been on meds for maybe 9 days hoping things will get better soon

I'm so proud of you John. You are actually inspiring me. I know it doesn't feel "perfect" right now but it will get "normal" again soon enough. Vulnerability is the birthplace of courage. Having fear and doing it anyway is THE main way of healing and overcoming our fears. Avoiding them only makes things worse and we both know avoidance is a double edged sword. On one hand, we get to avoid the fear but on the other, we still feel bad and worse, we get stuck in negative behaviors

Keep up the good work & thanks for checking in!

Sending love-
Lisa

4J.,

Awesome!!! Great job on pushing through the tough stage!! We are proud of you too.;)

You are still in the start up phase, so hang in there. Things should start to level off soon.

Did you ask your doctor about an anti-nausea? If your stomach discomfort continues, you will want to consider this for relief...no need to suffer.

Thanks for the updated and keep them coming.:)

Thankyou thankyou thankyou!!! Your replies really help. I do feel a bit more leveled out. I usually skip morning coffee time cause I'm so anxious I can't sit still( I hide thus well and no one thinks I'm crazy), but today I did, I comfortably sat and hung out . so obviously this med is working. I was prescribed 20 mg and I'm only taking half now. I have ginger pills and ondansetron for nausea but still gets kinda bad , especially when I'm hungry. Feeling a bit heavy chested today which is odd but just gonna keep the meds. Again, thanks for the kind words.
Prayers please!
