Thanks for the replies Davit and Dizzy. You have no idea how much it means.
I'm not sure what is causing this setback, but it just seems that things were working and now they are not. My anxiety levels have been thru the roof since Friday morning. Do you think it has to do with upping my dose of Celexa because I have read that it can exacerbate your anxiety symptoms for a while. I know it needs time to work. I have taken it in the past, and it seemed to do the trick. I was originally prescribed Paxil 3 years ago, but I could not handle it, so they switched me to Celexa and it worked for 2 years. Then I think I made the mistake of coming off it because I didn't think I needed it anymore. So I was fine for 8 months...but then come this September, I was back at the bottom. And I tried to beat anxiety on my own for a month before I let my doctor put me back on it. However, Davit, I will ask him about what you recommended, but in the mean time, I will carry on with my Celexa. Thank you for the suggestion.
Dizzy, I will check out the relationship section for sure. It is just so hard to deal with this when you don't know anyone else around you who is dealing with it too. Its like no one gets its. Which is why I like coming on this website and participating in the forums, so that does provide some relief. But then when I'm around everyone else in my daily life, they don't get it, and I just look at them and want nothing more than to be normal like them. Do you know what I mean?? I'm really looking forward to seeing the CBT therapist on Tuesday, maybe that will help too.
Thanks again for everyones kind words.
