The movies!

Well i am glad this helped you :) And i think your idea of an earlier show is a wonderful idea :) Thanks for sharing that idea with me^^

Yoga!

What i really wanted to know is does anybody here do yoga? And i wanted to know if you do do yoga is it hard? And if so how hard? If i have a back problem can i still do it? Does it make you feel better? Does it help your anxiety? Reason i am asking is i have been thinking of yoga for a source of exercise in my life and i just want to know what i would be getting myself into and if it would help. Anyway for those of you who do yoga and ansewer me thanks in advance. And if none of you do yoga well i guess i will go find myself some pamphlets hahahaha. -Sincerely, Diva.

The movies!

Btw after you have gone to the movie let me know^^ I am really interested in your experience. :)

Thought I was winning...

I agree we all have our good days and bad days. And we get some setbacks here and there. But as we go we have more and more knowledge and coping skills to deal with this. So i truely beleive you can get out of this. Just hang in there and things will be better again :)

Yoga!

I would most defenitely love the name of that yoga DVD you are talking about. I am looking for an exercise that is smooth and relaxing and that will help me get back in shape without freaking me out. Thanks so much for talking to me about this. I really do think i will give this a try. So if you can give me that name of the Dvd somehow without getting yourself in trouble i would surely appreciate it^^ -Diva :)

Going on more meds...

Hi guys. I am not sure this is a setback but i just wanted to talk about this. I am seeing my Dr tomorrow. Seeing her about going on more meds. As of now i take Clonazepam (Rivotril) PRN, that is as needed. I went back on clonazepam less then two weeks ago. The thing is i get through most of my day without it. I really do take it in the evening when i need a break and to sleep. I am gonna go see my Dr to see if an anti-depressant might help and help give me more equilibrium in my brain to lessen the panic andthe anxiety. I discussed this at freat lengths with my therapist who is just wonderful. He is really keeping an eye one me so that i get good advice about my medication. Thing is i am afraid i will get sucked into the whole meds thing and taking meds for magic pills and such. I am not even sure exactly why this scares me. I know that i know what i know :P which is that it is through courage, hard work and determination, through restructuring my thought and through my behavoiurs, by working the program that i will get well. So i know that taking the pills wont suddenly make me stop doing this. I know the meds will just help my body get its balance back till my heart and mind follow. And i know i can always work my way off the meds later when i am well. So why am i worried? I know i will keep working hard at this! Plus , i know my therapist is keeping an eye on my about this. And even he thinks that it is good for me to take the meds while i need them so that him and me can work through the program and get me the tools i need to be well. And as my husband says, if i was taking insuline everyday for diabetes i wouldnt beat myself over the head over it now would i? So why would i beat myself over the head for taking meds that help me take the steps I need to get better? I really started taking the meds so that i could have enough of a break here and there and sleep well enough here and there to recuperate my strength so i could keep being courageous and challenging my thought and myself and such. And that is why i am going to see my doctor tomorrow. So she can give me what will help me keep doing that! I guess i am just a bit sad that it has come to this again. I am sad that i had a setback in december and that i need help once more to get my equilibri
