Huzzah for completely unmedicated anxiety! Apparently it is possible to be in a happier place yet still slowly fall apart as stress becomes too much to bear. Certainly no fault of Jim's, of course - it's the standard assortment of trying to get this car stuff done without being slapped with all sorts of fines, and trying to find a job, and generally hoping I don't do anything to make the entire household hate me. With just a pinch of "holy hell, it's past 3 am, how is it still so hot in here", but that's just temporary.
Granted, no medication any doctor has ever prescribed has helped me with my anxiety. Even that Lexapro regimen that started out promisingly ended up backfiring horribly. Stress is just sort of something I had to learn to deal with on my own, and I've been making strides in that area. Until tonight, when I find myself with a raging stress headache and chest pains, unable to sleep, sweating and shaking, wishing there was something, anything I could do about it.
Here's hoping tomorrow night's better, I guess?
