I know ONTD doesn’t read but even the headline isn’t misleading. She said she used to drink, smoke and have coffee. Those are part of diet and diet def affects your mental health.

It’s not always true for everyone but I know drinking and caffeine make my panic attacks/anxiety worse.

The headline of this post is misleading though...

Well, that tracks.

She's in the middle of promoting a cookbook and of course we're already tired of the standard PR rollout.

So true. And not sleeping was apparently an issue for her too. That will make everything worse. When I was going through a depression a few years ago after some really bad family medical crap, I wasn't sleeping at all and would wake up to panic attacks. I think the most important thing Zoloft did for me was making me pass the fuck out and sleep through the night, waking up feeling more rested and energized.

Yes! Lack of sleep makes it soooo much worse and I sleep terribly. Of course doctors only want to prescribe Ambien 🙄

I’m glad to read the Zoloft is helping! And I’m so sorry about all the family stress 🙁 and I hope whatever was happening is better now.

Thanks so much bb! I was only on it for a few months and it really helped me get back on my feet. Some things have gotten better since then, other things not so much. Hope your sleep improves! I still have really bad sleep hygiene but at least it's not as bad as before when i was getting next to none.
