Ok Gals,
Needing some encouragement and reasurrance today!
As you all know dh went away last week and I did really well. I was planning my best friends bridal shower. Things were going good.
My little cutie pies got sick and I was bust taking care of them and the shower.
Anyway, the shower went great, but saturday night I was laying in bed with my little ones (when they're sick they sleep with us) and all of a sudden I felt anxious. It was out of nowhere. I got the whole dizzy out of it feeling.
Anyway, I also got sick and today I had to take the Boys to the DR and I was ok this morning. Then dh went to the Dr and it was not good news, here is the post..

THEN i went to the Dr, dh drove me there. As we were driving I started to have a panic attack, I got all dizzy and felt like I just had to get out of there.
So we got the the Dr and I have a sinus infection, she gave me antibiotics. Now I am upset about that, I have taken amoxocilin many time but for some reason now I am scared.
She did say that the womens one a day vitimin is good. She said that the B vitimins are good for anxiety.
She of course told me that my heart and lungs sound great.
She also said that I can take the klonopin 3x a day if I need to, that was good so in case I am having a really bad day I can.
sHe also said that she wants my pdoc to take over my meds, since I am on 20mg of lexapro already she wants him to take it from here. I am ok with that.
I suppose it makes sense that I am having anxiety, I have had some stressful days and am sick on top of it.
I am starting to think the awful thoughts again, I am so afraid that I will not snap out of this and that this will be my life forever.
Is it normal for the anxiety to hit after the fact when things have settled down, sat. the shower was over and we were home and safe so I don't understand why it hit then. Is that the way it goes...?
Then to have everything happen today...
I am just scared again...
((HUGS to all))

I know the feeling when you least expect it as Kim said
WHAM!! Distract yourself if you can by getting up and walking
around or do something for a few minutes to occupy your thoughts!
Or say to yourself I will be fine it will go away soon!!
Sorry for your bad day =0) HUGSSS Judy
