Good luck at the Dr today. Therapy every week may not be a bad idea for a while. Maybe they can help you with some coping ideas until the meds start working better for you.
God bless.

Hi Mystic - How was your appt. today? I think I'm a therapy junkee, I would love to see a doctor or therapist every week :-). Seriously, though, it sounds like you really need the support right now. I hope you start feeling better soon, let us know!!!!

Hey Ya'll
Wow have I been super busy. My best friend is getting married Saturday and I realized, I needed to get my hair, nails, and body done! All in a days work..haha.
Mystic, my dad got back into town. The tapes are muscle group relaxation tapes. He swears by them, they are supposed to be very helpful with anxiety. When I tried them it was before I took any medication and was too far gone to give them much attention. I think though now that even though we have bad days, our worst days now are much better than our bad days then..I shutter thinking about it...I think that the tapes would probably be very helpful. If you cannot find these tapes, let me know I will try to dub them and send them to you.
I have not heard of the products you are talking about. They sound fansastic, I am so sensitive to stuff, I have to be really careful. Anyway! Hope all is well, have a great weekend.
Love ya,
Lexy (Coco Chanel)

Hey everyone...Not a great night for me..Feeling very sad...and discouraged and hopeless..My therpy went good but just not feeling right...The med dr that I see is my regular physician..I see her tomorrow and I know that she is going to try to get me to jump up to 20mgs which I really do not want to do...It has been almost 3 weeks for the 15mgs and was hoping that it wouldve kicked in by now..I'm not evern sure lex is what I should be on..I'm afraid to gain the weight on the 20 and I'm afraid I already feel unattached at times now like I just dont care but I'm sooo sad...I just want to wake up and feel like myself again...I want to spend time with my friends and laugh and just feel normal or somewhat normal...
This is the week before the aunty flo visit so not sure if that is the reason probably has something to do with it..But I thought the 15mgs would help with that also...I feel like screaming crying..kicking...I dont know...Sometimes lately I feel like if i lost it then it I wouldnt know and that cant be all bad...
Lexy I would love love love to get those tapes you didnt mention a person that does them or anything wasnt sure where to look...
Well I'm going to go to bed I think need to get some rest from my thoughts and see how tomorrow goes...thanks everyone for always sticking by me...luvya alllll Mystic

Just curious...how does one get their "body done"? If I tried it, could I end up a size 5??? Or is that only on "The Swan"? lol

Hey Mystic,
Hang tough, girl! I wish I had an answer. I can't even offer a hug.
I continue to lift you before the Lord in prayer.
God bless.

Hi everyone,
I think I need a doc besides my regular MD - someone like a pdoc. Can someone tell me what doctor I should call that specializes in anxiety/panic. I never know which one to call.
I see from most of the post that you all see some sort of other doctor besides a regular MD so maybe that's what I need to help along with the meds. Please let me know.
I hope all are well tonight. Mystic you are in my very special prayers tonight. Don't worry sweetie, things are going to get better for you.
Love ya all,
anxious babe

A psychiatrist can prescribe meds. I don't think a psychologist can. Maybe someone has ideas on how to find a good psychiatrist...

i got my p-doc by asking my general practitioner to refer me to one so i dont have to pay for it. Im not sure if this only works in Canada but its worth a shot.

I'm doing ok. But I think it is like Lexy said. I have to keep this in perspective, because my bad days now are still better than my good days before. =)
God bless.

How did it go today???
> I know that she is going to push for me to take the xanax when I need it but still too afraid to take the xanax although i have taken it before I just am not sure when it would help and when to take it..
I was afraid of the Xanax too at first. But then I realized that it could take me from a panic attack to "normal" in less than 1/2 hour, and it became a friend. I still respect it and I don't abuse it, but I am not afraid of it anymore.
Let us know how your day went.
God bless.

Yes, and I am OK. You need to not worry so much about us and just take care of yourself. And don't give up hope. Even if the increase wasn't the answer, there are other meds to try. So just hang in there. You don't lose this battle unless you simply give up. Keep us posted. Gee, I wish I could wrap my arms around you and give you a hug...
