just an update, for those who know me, i was trying to wean
from paxil, i had been on 10mg for about 6weeks down from 20mg.
i was doing ok until this week, got my period and was panicky all
over the place, i would of tried to get thru this but my son is
having surgery next week and i am worried. myabe now is not the
time for weaning......is there ever a good time? was at the eye
doc yesterday for my yearly, this is always a trigger for
me, for having diabetes for 26 years my eyes look really good and i'm
always worried i'm going to hear that my luck has run out and i'll need
a laser, etc. well, the doc commented on how anxiety ridden i was,
he had a nice chat with me and i think he had an input in my decision.
these are not my first triggers for anxiety/panic but when in an anxious state
my life seems harder than it is. it has just taken me longer to
calm down then usual...that morning adrenaline has lasted longer
and the nights are not to much fun either.
oh, well.....Kim, are you around, wondering how you are
doing?
any comments on a failed wean welcomed.
kris - who took 20mg this morn with 1/2 xanex

(((Kris))) I have many triggers similiar to your's. In the past I tried to go off antidepressants & was NOT successful on the first try. There will be a better time for you, so don't hold on to this. Let it go & accept that your anxiety is too high @ this time. You are NOT a failure. I will be praying for your little one. That is so hard on moms): What day is his surgery? I will put a prayer in the devotions folder for him. Please take care of yourself. Good luck & GBU! (((hugs))) jan
PS I am majorly behind on e-mail after another 10 day hospitalization. I WILL get caught up!
Honestly, I am so happy you increased it back up.
