Oh crap...

Been doing SO good last several month.  Just some twinges during pms.

For some reason it hit me last night and not just a twinge - borderline panic attack feelings. IBS, acid stomach/reflux, trembling, heavy chest, shallow breathing, lightheadedness, the works.  Thing is its not pms and stress levels are down.  Worst thing is my house is a mess (not exactly the end of the world!).  Seems like I can work at it constantly but my 10  yr old tornado follows me and undoes it all!  Gave up and just sat around alot the rest of the weekend.  And hit the comfort food (chocolate!) even tho in the long run that makes it worse!

Only good thing is cut the smoking in half.  The shallow breathing and heaviness in the chest always scares me into thinking its all caught up with me.

Thanks for listening.  Hopefully work tomorrow will distract me.

hang in there, Karen.  Don't worry about the house, the tornado probably likes it that way.  Hubby might be a different story but he has two hands, so be proud of yourself for cutting back the smoking.  I hope that you can go all the way with that.  I know that you would have more energy.

Last night was a bi***, but today was better and so far tonight seems ok. Feeling more like myself again. Thanks for the thoughts and prayers! Think I'm definitely gonna ask the doc for the real paxil this time. Ever since the generic came out I havent been doing as well.
