I had to giggle a little at your post because you sound so much like me. Quite rational, logical, and collected, yet this "thing" seems to affect us both. I'm on day 14 of Paxil CR and I saw the doc today. It's making a difference, but little by little. She said I should see significant improvement from this point on. I'm excited! For the first time, I feel like I might actually be getting a grip on this anxiety.
I wake up in the morning and for about 30 minutes, I'm OK. I can think, pray, get ready, whatever, and I'm OK. Then one little thing will get in my mind and BANG! it sets the whole cycle into motion and the day is filled with panic/anxiety/worry. I really hate it. It's ruining so many good things in my life. I woke up from a nap yesterday with a tight chest, short breathing and my brain spinning into all sorts of horrible places. It's nauseating, really.
I think you've answered a couple of my other posts and I remember appreciating what you had to say. Again, thank you for replying to me. I appreciate the encouragement! I need it!
