Anger issues are really rough to deal with and horrendous on other people around you. With Mg I was able to control my anger and not have an outburst. But, I started having sleep problems again/waking up early after 10 great days. I can't figure it out but that is what happened with the fish oil too.
Benzo's are tricky for some. I believe if I had the money to get my self thoroughly checked out we could proceed with meds/supplements that would give me the best chance to join the human race again. Ron, give niacinamide a try instead of a benzo. I took 200 mg around 10 am and felt better, althought my past does not make me too hopefull. You can always go to a benzo, but it is hard to go off and try something else. A few years back I went from 15 mg tranzene to 7.5 mg. I had no sleep problems, but I had "jumpy" legs. I would have twitching and a weird sensation out of the blue which lasted about 1 month. I am sure there are better benzo's out there too but I agree with Colin, a longer acting benzo is probably better.
Lately, I get very spaced after eating and have lost the ability to feel the sleepiness take over and give me a good nights rest.
For me guys, the job stress is killing me. On one hand my boss leaves me alone most of the time, but things are his way or the highway. On top of that nobody in the section is willing to help the new guys out. Nobody wants to be singled out for his wrath. Besides it is government and apathy abounds. The problem is the cold hard fact that no other jobs are availabe now and I don't feel I am contributing to anything. I know this might sound selfish, but I should just be worrrying about HAVING this job when in fact I don't know if it is giving me the anxiety/depression problems!??? Classic, which comes first the chicken or the damn egg? If I don't have this job we lose our apartment and then what? I looked at my job disabilty insurance and sure enough, I have been on meds so I am not covered and depression, if you qualify, is only covered for 2 years. Ever wake up thinking you just dreamed you had depression and it was some nightmare that wasn't true? Unforunately, I feel my nightmare is just starting and it is real. Well, I ramble as usual so I will sign off here. Take care and I pray you both find peace and happiness.
