Yes, Phillipa, I do sometimes.
I'm sorry you are right now.
Did you feel this bad before the medication change? Medication changes can be awful themselves.
I'm glad you set the bicycle goal for yourself. Are there other small goals that you can set for yourself that are also anxiety reducing? Like "I resolve to snuggle with Chloe, or throw her a ball, or scritch her tummy, for at least ten minutes at a time five times a day."
Have you ever tried meditation? I don't think I meditate well, I think it slips more towards self hypnosis, but whatever I do, it helps some.
Have you ever learned deep breathing techniques?
Anxiety is awful, and I hope you get some relief from it.
