Feeling anxious

[XmasCarol52]

I don't know why I have been feeling so anxious as of late but it is getting to be very annoying it seems like I take my meds and about two hours later I am all wound up .My body feels so restless like I feel like I am about to pop.I don't know if it is from the weather or what I do have two doctors appointments coming up ugh so close to one is on halloween,maybe I can dress up as a klonopin,lol and the other is for November six the first one is for 12:30 i hate late appointments but they told me he only works in the afternoon another case where a patient has to do what the doctor wants,i would rather go in first thing in the morning then leave,Why do I have to go through this crap every single time I have to go out somewhere I get all worked up.When I know i can go and get my coffee later I try to think about that but it isnt helping any.All my mind does is think of the negative stuff.Like what if something happens,the car breaks down or we get stuck somewhere ugh.I was born a worry wart and I guess it will never go away,anxieties are the pits.

You take buspar don't you..... if so .....that explains it. It worked for a little while with me too but, it can cause something called the "parodoxical reaction" meaning it starts to do oposite of what it's intended to do... to put it frankly. ... it makes matters alot worst.

Yes I do why is it meds that are suppose to help you make you feel worse?Makes you sick doesnt it?I feel like i am depending on them now even though i can go almost two days without taking any.Still at times it feels like I need more but dont worry I only take what I am suppose to or even less,I dont want to become dependent on them,

It seems like it may be because you have two doctors appointments coming up. You don't like to go to the doctor, do you? Its also at a time you don't like which is probably annoying.

I don't like to go out in the afternoons either and it is frustrating when I have to do an afternoon stint. It makes me frustrated and then that comes out as anxiety. Mine was really bad yesterday, like something awful was about to happen.

I know you have to sit around all morning dont really want to eat something because I know with me my stomach can act up 12:2030 is just way to late the next one is for 11:30 , I hope I dont have to sit and wait around i least I know where the bathroom is,I always have to know where that is and i like to sit close to the door in case I need to leave.Waiting around is just to nerve wracking.

I decided to do some drawing to help me relax some it helped so for your pleasure,

 

[XmasCarol52]

As usual I did not get any sleep last night I was just to wound up and anxious,no matter what i tried to do I couldnt sleep.I tried watching tv but I am to restless and the funny thing I don 't feel the least bit tired,just a little humor i have no problem farting though i wish i could sleep as much as i break windI suppose all of these up and coming doctors are getting to me,hey I even worked on my scarf still couldnt sleep,this is annoying I am just so frustrated and i am sure I am not the only who is,hope everyone else had a good night,

 

[janemariesayed]

Sorry, you couldn't sleep last night Carol. Have you tried lavender? It is really effective for relaxing. It normally sends me off like a baby.

 

[XmasCarol52]

No I cannot use anything like that because it would make my allergies worse,maybe I should sniff my socks lol that would knock anyone out lol

 

[XmasCarol52]

Hello friends I find drawing really relaxes me so I am going to share some of my favorite holiday drawings that I just did enjoy,

 

[XmasCarol52]

I'm on Citrolopram. (Antidepressant) I tried taking it before I go to bed, but I couldn't sleep. I take it in the morning, but the next morning I have little panic attacks. It sucks first thing in the morning, but, I remind myself nothing has happened yet in the day.
Try different meds. It sucks but one is bound to work right for you. You have to give each at least a 6 week try though.

Today i am also feeling anxious. I seen something today that I will never be able to unsee. I went to the restroom today at work and in the other stall a woman was doing heroin of shooting up pills .. something . I seen it with my own eyes because when I got out of my stall ... she left her's open a bit. I have never seen anything like this before despite the fact that my brother and sister do it.. I have never caught them or seen them do it. The restroom smelled of candlewax and burned pills. Is it weird to you guys that this woman's actions traumatized me a little bit? Am I being Mello dramatic? How would you guys react? By the time I told my supervisor. . She was gone.

 

[XmasCarol52]

I dont think you are being mellow dramatic,I would have completely freaked out myself.You dont need to be subject to that kind of abuse,it is abuse of your own body.I would tell your boss the next time you see her .

 

[Concernedgal]

Why would someone chose a restaurant bathroom to shoot up. What if she had hepatitis c or hiv and she's in that stall spreading her disease? .. how irresponsible. What if a child walked in a caught her? What if she left her needle behind and someone got stuck by it and got sick ? Or even worst caught HIV?!!! So many things could have gone wrong. She could have overdosed and died! What if she did? Omg!!! That has ptsd written all over it.

 

[XmasCarol52]

Well first of all she shouldnt be shooting up and being on drugs anyway but to choose a restroom it just goes to show you how irresponsible she is.I hope that you don't ever have to encounter that kind of thing again,that could be very tramatic for you.SHe isnt to swift if you ask me,who would want to do that kind of thing to there body???

I don't think you were being melodramatic, but witnessing the experience made your sensitivity go into overdrive. You imagined all the worse scenarios that could have resulted from her actions. You were right to be shocked. Firstly, if she is going to do that, then keep it to herself. Not go out in a public place because anyone could see her.

Perhaps we can give her a little sympathy, as she is obviously out of her mind. She must be suffering from problems she feels there is no answer to.

my anxieties are so very high right as of now,well last night we had severe winds first I had a power surge it only effected my living room ,then when i was sitting in my rocker watching tv and knitting because I couldnt sleep from the rain and the wind the power went off it took about 30 seconds to long for the generator to go off,but when it went out it made a loud boom and i saw lightening outside from it however the power has been out since 1230 am and it still isn tworking,the wind is howling again,this damn storm has got me so worked up coupled with having to go to my doctors tomorrow i feel like I want to jump out of my own skin,what I would love to know why do these stinken storms always seem to hit at night/That wind was something else.I wonder if my chair is still out there I will have to go and look,I hope they fix it soon,I did email my electric company to let them know ,it is much easier for me that way then calling ,i get so nervous over the phone my words dont come out right and sometimes i can tell they are laughing at me one time i got so mad i told the woman not to laugh at me she claims she wasnt bnt i know better.Wish I could relax i know i could certainly use a hug

Hi Carol, we had the same kind of storm where I live. It was horrible and scary and the power went out here too.
I hope you're doing better and I wish I could offer you an in-person hug, but I'll offer you a virtual hug.
I hope things get better soon!
