Restless & Can not relax
| Sun, 03-28-2004 - 5:17pm |
Over this weekend I can not seem to relax! Last night I had to make my self a rum & coke. I get worried when I do that because my Dad is an alcoholic and I don't want to end up being like that. I don't drink all the time, just to relax sometimes. I even went to Bath & Body works to buy some of the aromatherapy scents that help you de-stress and relax, including the candles. But it only helps for a little bit, its like my mind will not allow me to relax and I feel so jumpy!! I can't really tell if I am depressed or its my anxiety that has hit me. I am beginning to think that its my anxiety. I go back to my Pyschiatrist in May, for meds check; I take Depokate, Zoloft and Buspar, but I am beginning to think I need to go back earlier??
I have my appointment with a counsler on Tues (which I keep thinking I should I go or not go); and I might have a possible job interview lined up for this week, and plus I am trying to enroll @ Orlando Vo-Tech school,I want to look into a program there that they have, its for Health Unit Coordinator, which means a good paying job in a hospital. I really want to go there this week to take the required tests, but I don't think I would do very good, because of the way my mind is right now. The open orientation is April 5th, but I am sure they will have other enrollment periods!
Please help, does any one have any good suggestions as to help me calm my mind??

i'd say definitely meet w/ your psychiatrist sooner.
therapists are a good idea if you have one who is really providing good guidance.
personally i'd definitely get in there way before May!
& don't drink alcohol or coffee.
