Hey Everyone who suffers, I've been having a tough few days for some odd reason I will get kinda in the dumps because I hate having this anxiety/panic disorder and I just hate it I don't want to be this way the rest of my life. I want to feel totally normal and not be on medication. Some times I feel like a freak of nature. Though I feel so much better than I used to (and god I felt really bad) I just feel why I can't be totally happy all the time? I guess I am looking for someone to give me a pep talk....I'm usually the one who gives those! I know someone out there feels like I do. Gotta go cook-that will make me happy! Thanks for listening just had to tell someone....;) ;)

you pretty much answered your own post in that you are feeling so much better now than you did before and as time progresses you are going to continue to feel better. Everyone has little bumps in the road but the big thing is to get back on track to wellness

You are so right trg247 I think I am on a bumpy road. I usually don't feel this way but for some reason I do. Thanks for listening and yes I do want to get on with feeling well. I usually do.:) Jules

Jules!!! I'm sorry you're having a bad time....and you're the positive one that's always helping me to feel better! You're just having a few bad days..we all have those. This Lucinda Bassett book I just read talks about taking control of your anxiety and depression and she says recovery is one step forward and two steps back, failure is an ineveitable path to success. You WILL get better, I can tell you are a very strong person. I know you can do it!! Ya just gotta be more stubborn than the anxiety. That's how I'm trying to be, and trust me, I'm stuborn! LOL Hang in there girl, it'll get better. Come here and vent anytime, makes ya feel better. And remember, you are NOT alone...I can't believe all the people who suffer with this crap..it's more common than we all know. (((HUGS))) Keep yer head up girl!

Thank you Amb, I am a strong person and everyday can't be great. Today is much better so far though I'm just waking up again. I didn't sleep the greatest and my medicine makes me sleepy for awhile. I guess it's was kinda of a depressing day for me. I was telling a special friend about my fear of traveling especially on the interstates and I kinda felt like a freak. He is a motorcycle guy and loves to travel and I am the total opposite! I am also pretty reclusive don't go to many places which I hate at times. I used to be quite the outgoing person and didn't have a fear in the world! Hope you are doing well and hugs...to you. Have a great Saturday everyone. Jules;)

I know you are having a rough time too, I am at my wits end trying to let my doctor know how bad I really am, He says I can go look for work and keep a job, I know that is true, just not right now... I freak out on a daily basis, and I have been taking my meds faithfully everyday. It's only 60 degrees outside and I am so hot, sweaty and cold at the same time.I see a mental health therapist on 8/29/06, I do want to go back to work but my mind and body say no.
