The Curse of Anxiety and Depression

I think the worst thing is knowing that it's all in my head and still not being about to stop it. I've had another bad episode that started last night when I couldn't fall asleep. So far I've slept in 1 hour intervals for the last 14 hours. All I can do is massive amounts of breathing exercises, and I can get myself into that deeply relaxed

*hugs* Talk to the doctor who prescribed the anti-depressants! Some drugs do the opposite of what they're meant to, for example Wellbutrin worked find on me and on my grandfather but made my mom suicidal.

I think this has more to do with me panicking about taking the medication than with the actual medication, but you're right. I'll give it a few days and see what happens.

*hugs* I can understand why you'd be panicking about taking the medication, and I'd guess from experience that all the sensible arguments about how there's nothing to panick about won't do a lick of good. So I just send you good vibrations and urge you to stick with it. *hugs again*

Thanks. I find the most comforting thing to be the people that understand, and the people that try to understand.

*appreciates the hugs immensely*
