Feeling good

I'm finally feeling better. I spent the last week in prayer and intense bible & book studies. I also forced myself out of the house as much as possible for some enjoyment with my family. Taking time to read, pray alone and getting out are how I deal with my anxiety issues. (That and support from this board!) I just wanted to update you on how I'm doing because I know it can be encouraging to read a good post once in a while. :) I never did increase my paxil and I haven't had ativan in over a week, so I'm happy about that.
I have figured out that my main trigger is being sick. It always makes me question my anxiety and meds, so I just spiral into panic thoughts. So, next time I come here complaining about anxiety, feel free to remind me of this!
Thanks everyone!

I am so happy to hear this, Candace! You were in line for a return to balance. I am glad you found ways to achieve it!
As for reminding you in the event the anxiety bug bites again, I will be glad to. But first, you have to promise to remind ME!!! LOL Even a hint of illness is enough to put me @ death's door;) GL & GBU! (((hugs))) jan
I'm so glad you are feeling better! Being sick or injured is a big trigger for me too. I start overanalyzing my aches and pains and it takes on a life of its own.
Thanks for the post! It really is nice to hear about people feeling better.
I am so happy to hear that you are feeling better!!!!!! It gives me hope for myself!!
Hugs,
Thank you for the update Candace!

Like it is some HUGE ILLNESS THAT WILL LAST FOREVER!
I cannot rest when sick this is NOT GOOD!!
I have found listening to my hypnosis tapes does help!!
Relaxing music does too!
I am happy for you--- you have isolated a trigger and can now
use it to help yourself feel BETTER!!!
When you get sick try and do some positive thinking I will soon be well again-- try to push away the negative feelings and THOUGHTS!!!!!!
THE THOUGHTS ARE WHAT GET"S US IN TROUBLE!!
Take care!! Judy
