    Glad to hear you are feeling good today Demi.   I have had a busy day, went shopping for a while with daughter, mini anxiety moment but got it under control.  Just back from a long walk with the dogs and feeling chilled out now.   I have noticed I get upset tummy every afternoon around 3pm and feel anxiety spike, wonder if it’s the timing of my med in the morning.  X

    AH im okay, slept 12 hours last night having crazy vivid dreams. I recently stopped smoking pot every day so its made sleeping regularly hard. I got myself to the gym today which felt good but im feeling pretty depressed today. I can tell its gonna be a few months before i can get back to workinng and being a person again. 

    But im glad that we are in this together Laura and Demi. 

    I used to be on these forums frantically reading disaster stories— its really nice to keep up with eachother in a positive way instead.

      You might be depressed and feeling low but you went to the gym, that’s fantastic, I think you did good today just for doing that. smile

      Ah thanks guys :3 

      And no luckily i like driving, i find it relaxing and engaging at the same time but oddly enough i am too anxious to ride my bike lol. Not sure where to go/have a genuine fear of getting hit and getting brain damage or some other serious injury. 

      And yea i know i should give myself a pat on the back for going to the gym. I am just impatient and want to feel like myself again cause honestly I sometimes think itll never happen and ill be this way forever rolleyes

      You won’t feel like it forever as they say these tablets aren’t the same as the likes of paracetamol they take a very long time to work also it’s not just the tablets that’s doing this to you , you have to kind of train your brain into thinking that there’s nothing wrong with you and you will go back to your old self it’s worked with me great , when you start feeling anxious or scared tell your brain “ah this little episode is back again hurry up and go “ then occupy yourself and it will just go , it has worked for me honestly or if your having an episode talk to someone about something even if it’s coming on here I’m on here everyday x

    Do either of you struggle with driving.  This is a new fear I seem to have developed over the past few weeks.  I really need to sort it out, my hubby is having surgery on Friday and I need to be able to drive him.
