Been a couple days since I checked in. Had to work the weekend 2nd shift of course. Hate the hours but like the money and need the benefits so I tough it out. Today I've had a few anxiety attacks...
Hi all. I had the day off from work since I have to work the weekend. Didn't do very much just relaxed mainly. I cooked dinner which I rarely do any more since I work 2nd shift. Kate: I too go thru...
It was good to reconnect with the therapist today. I am feeling hopeful that it is what I need. Time for the healing to begin. She gave me some "homework" to journal three positive things a day. I...
My first therapy appointment is today. I did see her a couple times a couple years ago and really liked her. Now that I have insurance I plan on going regularly. I am slowly retraining myself to take...
Hi Everyone, I made it thru a whole week of work last week. One 4 hr day and three 8 hr days. Still not being able to eat great, but I am getting better at it. Tonight ate cheese and think that it...
Made it thru an 8 hr night at work. Wasn't easy but I managed. Now if I can just stop waking up nauseated and slowly I am being able to eat. Still afraid of getting sick so limiting the foods I...
Thanks Kate. I am doing ok except the stomach. Still having a hard time waking up nauseated and trying to eat. I have to work the next three days from 2:30 til 11 pm so my body needs to try and...
Same here but we have to try to have a positive attitude. My stomach feels good for a couple days and then WHAM all nauseated and trouble eating again. This illness stinks. Need to get it back in...
Thanks again for all the encouragement. Kate the thought of walking right now makes me cringe as here in Michigan is once again bitter cold and I hate winter. I did work 4 hrs tonight and made it...
I guess I have always put on that mask for so long that says I am strong and everything is ok. I guess it just got too be too much and the depression and worrying, etc. got the best of me this time...
I did make an appointment to start seeing a therapist again. It has been quite a while and I am thinking that will help. I go March 4th. I am trying to get into a better mindset. I do not want this...
I guess I should also mention that I was very reluctant to go on any meds because the doctors prescribed Zoloft for my daughter when she was 19 and before we knew what hit us she was in a medically...
Kate, I too have been having major stomach issues that you describe. I have lost over 20 lbs in under 3 months. I admitted to myself and my husband today that it is because of "nerves" and...
Thank you Karen. I guess I just really need people to talk to and help learning to focus. I did find a couple things on here when I was looking around....
Hi. My name is Holly and I am 54 yrs old. I have dealt with depression for over 12 yrs since I lost my only child. The past few months it has gotten severe enough that it has caused me health...
Hi I am new here. I have been taking Celexa for over 2 yrs (mild dose of 10mg) for PTSD. About 4 months ago I started having problems with chest and gut pain. The doctors did all the gull bladder...
