    Have you ever thought about taking something for anxieties

      No but I try to stay busy instead of concentrating on the anxiety sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't I'm starting to take the good with the bad I just can't wait for the day that this all goes away sometimes my body get so tired from the anxiety like all day and xiety then at the end of the night I am so tired and when it wears off I feel like I have flu like symptoms but then it goes away

    I had one of those weekends too!  Hard time sleeping, cranky in the mornings, but still had to pull it together and pretend I wasn't feeling like crap so I could play with my 8 year old daughter and then take her to a birthday party.  I always feel like everyone can tell I feel "weird" and so self conscious...  Then yesterday stayed super busy with chores around the house which kept my mind off things but then hubby planned a big BBQ at our house with friends which was ok but I don't even drink much anymore (had 1 Coors the whole time) and everyone else is drinking and having fun and I just feel like an old fuddy-duddy. Oh well, at least he did most of the cooking.  But then I was SO sore over my whole body (arms and shoulders ache, and always the bad joint pain in my elbows), and the palpitatiosn came back a bit.  At least the horid headaches from last week have subsided.  It's Monday and I'm praying for a relaxing/slow week at work...
