Anxiety is better

Today is a good day for me. I was so crabby and just angry yesterday. I do not like me when I am like that, but I am running a med check to see if my sleeping pills not being taken are the cause of that. I am free to stop and start the sleeping pills as I please, my pdoc knows that if I need them I will take them, so he okay with this being done. I stopped them for a week and did not sleep much at all. When I was sleeping it was so broken up that it didn't count as sleep really. In total last week I got 3 hours of sleep a night, sometimes less. I am back on the med and got 5 or 6 hours sleep last night. So I will stick with the pills. I am staring to calm myself down easier as well so I am feeling so much better. This time of year is never easy for me, but I will beat this yearly anxiety issue and make my families and my life easier. I am proud to say that this year's bout has not put me in bed or kept me from doing anything regular in my life! I will not do that to myself or my family anymore as long as I can help it. It gets easier. I can promise everyone.

Hello

Good Job. That's the way to do it. Living with anxiety is a life full with compromise and adjustments, I'm happy to hear that you're able to finally settle with your meds and have control over it. That's just brilliant. We're all really proud of you.

I would also like to thank you for sharing your experience. I found it really inspirational. Just continue with what you are doing and hopefully you'll be anxiety-free very soon. Congratulations on the progress. Keep it up. :)
