Another Sunday afternoon, another feeling of dread

of what the week may hold. Thank you all for being here. I was going to call in tomorrow to work, but I have to attend a class. I ran out of my anxiety medicine yesterday, so I feel anxious and uncomfortable. Very stressed. I find it hard to go to work without my anxiety meds, but it is supposed to be filled tomorrow. The state does not allow early re-fills.

Just trying to get through this all and stay sane and not keel over from stress.

If you have a smart phone I suggest trying the Calm app. I have anxiety too and it's really helped me.

I used to take alprazolam but was able to discontinue it, eventually. I attribute part of my success to my puppy dogs keeping me walking in the great outdoors and also to the app.

my anxiety is so bad i plan each day wondering if i will go to the ER today or not.
Thats the extent of my day.
Panic attacks and fear.
nothing seems to help, even klonopin is failing me.
