This week Is eating me alive...

Krissy I had to fight to get lead teacher at the church for wee worship. I fought for it and taught one class before I had an anxiety relapse. I stayed home the next sunday, taught the next and this week had to break down and tell the pastor and the education dept head I have anxiety (embarassing) and that I will be putting the class on hold. I was so upset and felt so guilty. This last 4 weeks has taken such a toll on me physically (losing 30 pounds) mentally ( I am depressed this around) and on my family. My five year old prayed to God tonight to make his mommy better so she'd play with him again. =0( I was so under drugs yesterday (ativan) that I missed his bus. Really upseet me cause I am so not like that. EVen the bus driver questioned if I was ok. I am having to keep my kids home to babysit me and its embarassing.......

Hey Krissy, Write whatever you want to, I love to read about peoples day or whats on their mind. We all know what your going through. ADMINISTRATOR I belong to 4 anxiety sites and was wondering if you have a room just to tell jokes or chat about something other than anxiety, and also a room where we can swear? Sorry Krissy, I just thought maybe we needed a little laughter sometimes. I can't believe your a lead in a play!!! GOOD FOR YOU I wish I could do that.

...and it's only tuesday. Last time I posted here someone mentioned to me that I was lucky that I was still in the early stages of my panic disorder. I am beginning to understand what they meant. Lately, dispite my exhaustive attepmts to cut back on sugars, caffine, and things that set me off, I've gotten worse. I know one triggor could be school has gotten into full-swing once again, but this is driving me up the wall. I had to go in to my drama teacher's office yesterday to explain to him why I may seem strange at practices and how sometimes I need an out. I felt like I owed it to him, seeing as I am the lead in the play, and because he's been a good guide for me over the years. I hate this. I felt so weak, and I was so angry that I even had to have this conversation with him. On the other hand I knew I had to, in case I can't get on stage some days, or even on preformance night. Anyways, thanks for reading this... I am not really sure what my aim of this post was. Maybe just that I need to know other people share in my frustration, and that I am not alone. Right now, it sure feels lonely here, and I am getting more and more desprite. Krissy
