Getting borderline!!!!

Hi Tiluli why did you quit your meds?Have you tried the panic program on this site it has helped me.Try deep breathing or go for a relaxing bath with a book anything to distract yourself and lots of positive thoughts you will get through this take care. Lulu..

Wrestler im glad to hear you had a slightly better day the after symptoms are awful and they just seem to linger.Thats great news about the job interview i hope it all works out for you somethings gotta give hey.i dont know what im going to do about my husband he has hurt me yet again but this time i cant get upst i am just so angry with him my psychologist wants me to talk to my parents to get their support but they love my husband(probably more than me at the moment)and they would probably blame me for our problems even though nobody knows the half of what goes on with him i just feel trapped damned if i do damned if i dont.Im trying to do the positives but its so hard to be positive when your marriage is going down the tubes.Thanks for talking with me i appreciate it :)Take care.

Hi Wrestler how did you go at work today? How is your depression i hope you are feeling better.My depression seems to be lifting a little i have felt a little better today though now i have chest pain that is really uncomfortable im sure it is anxiety i have had all the usual heart tests i do have an irregular heart rythym but nothing thats going to do me any harm unless it gets worse so theres always that worry that maybe its got worse i hope that makes sense.I will see how it is tomorrow before i start to panic about it. Hopefully its only anxiety i am pretty stressed at the moment with the husband situation thers really not a great deal to tell about it my husband is a compulsive liar which i am having trouble dealing with because he wont take steps to help himself and on top of that he is addicted to a certain prescription drug and i have begged/pleaded/threatened and given him ultimatums but he wont get any sort of help and my doctor and pshychologist say theres not a great deal i can do he has to want to get help so i told him tonight i was leaving him hes sleeping on the couch and i hope its the wake up call he needs because i dont really know if i have the strength to really leave the thought just petrifies me here i am a 27 year old mother of 4 beautiful children acting like a scared lttle mouse.Do you have any children? I used to cry alot with my depression but since i am on a stronger dose of zoloft i cant seem to get teary at all.Perhaps im just all cried out.I dont really fear dying (although i dont want to) i fear not being in control of my body like being a paraplegic or something i would hate that cause ive always been very sporty/active so thats my biggest fear.anyhow thats probably enough rambling on for one night so i hope you have a lovely night with your fiance talk to you soon take care. :) Lulu..

Im glad you had a great time with your fiance and friends its nice to feel'normal' every once in a while.I went to the doctor today because of those chest pains i was having and he told me im on the verge of pneumonia and a middle ear infection si he gave me some antibiotics and said if it dosnt clear up in 24 hours i have to go to the ER.no wonder i was in agony.anyway i need lots of rest so i'll talk to you soon.

Sorry your having a rough time at the moment i hate that surreal feeling you get and the only way im able to rid it is to go to sleep i try to keep busy keep my mind active on things other than how i am feeling but sometimes nothing helps and you just have to let it pass sorry i cant help you more.

so..so....

Hi Gina how are you feeling? Change is very scary when you suffer with anxiety but you will be ok we are here and we certainly understand how you feel.Is there any way you could get your husband to see your therapist with you so he can understand what it is you are going through?My psychologist suggested for me to bring my husband along to one of my sessions but he wouldnt go maybe yours could.Take care.

Vacation sounds good :)a permanent vacation from anxiety would be lovely!You have a lot going on in your life at the moment and any change whether it be good or bad is scary because we like our routine however mundane it is we know its there.Why do you think your fiance wouldnt understand? Lulu..
