Posted , 4 users are following.
Hi all .. my husband has been in the police Academy for the last 4 weeks and I've been switching antidepressants and seeing what works.. I was on prozac for 3 weeks n could barely function from anxiety and panic.. I was hospitalized for 5 days they eventually put me back on my original meds that use to work for me lexapro n latuda.. my husband comes home on the weekend I was fine all weekend until now I have extreme anxiety and panic over him leaving and being alone and taking care of my 6 year old.. as well as starting intentisive outpatient therapy tomorrow.. from 10am to 330pm.. I've only been back on the lexapro and latuda since last monday.. I wish it would kick in a bit more.. please any help or support would be great .. I'm in complete fear of being alone

Do you walk, do yoga or anything.
Personally I like my favourite music whilst house working. Clean house better mind, although when it's too clean everyone knows I'm ill!
There are so many negative things happening in the world at the moment and any change will make anxiety worse.
Maybe tonight you will sleep well and wake feeling better, maybe your mess will kick in or maybe the sun will shine.
Youve got this far. Another day another challenge.
Do your breathing tecniques. Drink herbal teas. Be proud of yourself and it will all be much better than you think.
One day at a time x

Music is a good distraction sometimes. You will find what works for you, keep a bag with you and control the next attack, fit back n hopefully they'll start to go away x

I get scared about being alone too when my anxiety it at its worst.
My hubby leaves tomorrow to go to work, thankfully only for a week this time and I am dreading it...but I know I'll get through...and will be so happy and proud of myself when I do 😊
I know it's so hard, but try and stay positive x x x

I am on citalopram though, only onto my 3 rd week, so still waiting on them making me feel better. This is the second time in my life. Do you have anyone close by who can come stay for a while?? X x
