My dear HW family! (let the long text beginnn :D)
I have been away from the forums for a while, though I visit everyday and check posts. I try to reply to posts if I can...
There are some changes in my life, on top of the list is the improvement of my Health Anxiety condition. But the reason for it is another stress source, the new e-store company I created.
I am so busy with papers and planning, so much that I don't have time to pay attention to my symptoms. LOOOL xD
Actually yeah, that's how it is. At least I don't care about how my body feels, as I used to before.
As I said about the company, naturally I am spending some amount of our savings in order to buy in products and my hubby is getting depressed and irritated xD
Well actually we are having a crisis in our household nowadays because of his insecurity. So much family Drama, omg...
I try to understand him, he has been searching for a new job for a year now and he gets depressed more and more each day.
This affects me naturally, but I don't want to let this crisis break my will.
Another change is that I stopped taking SSRI medication :)
Of course at first week I felt a little air headed, dizzy, etc but nothing more than that. I dont want to eat Anti Depressants all my life. Not that they are bad but I already treated my panic disorder (which often comes with health anxiety thoughts) and since meds don't have any effects on my thoughts.
I feel good since I stopped Medication.
I am taking Pantoprazol (PPI) for now, a couple tablets left to finish the box. The dr gave me when I visited my family in homeland, because reflux was disturbing my voice. I have to say my reflux symptoms are totally gone. Though I don't plan to continue meds since PPIs are not good for health in long run. Instead, later on I plan to change my diet.
Oh yeah, that's what's been happening in my life lately. But since I'm sorta back... yeah!
