Maybe I just should use that prescription and stop being a whiny baby

Re: so anxious so pent up

That sounds so hard to deal with @ArraDreaming , especially when it is unexpected.

Has anyone ever worked on strategies with you?

I know I've worked on strategies for panic attacks, but not anxiety so much.

Even if this med doesn't work, maybe there are others? Good to speak to someone who understands about it. I certainly don't.

Maybe even chat to your partner about it to see what she thinks. @ArraDreaming

Main thing is, do what's right by you and your family.

Re: so anxious so pent up

I don't know anything about the meds, but is it possible to take it for a while, get yourself into a routine of going to work, and any changes that are thrown your way, and then get off the meds? As I said, I don't know if it works that way @ArraDreaming Or do you have to take it everyday?

In response to: Re: so anxious so pent up

Re: so anxious so pent up

You have to take it everyday and then come off them slowly i didn’t do that last time and just threw them all in the bin (this was like 5,6 years ago) was not in a good way

i could just man up take what they offered and deal with it also @tyme and I need to stop being a whinged

In response to: Re: so anxious so pent up

Re: so anxious so pent up

Sounds like there was a lot of frustration around at that time.

Does that mean you have to go and get another prescription? Or do you have one? I read that it was 5-6 years ago when you last took it.

It's good to have a think about whether you want to give it ago again. Consider the pros and cons and allow yourself to make an informed decision as to whether the benefits are worth the risks. @ArraDreaming

Re: so anxious so pent up

throwing them out and abruptly stopping put me at probably the worst I have been at mentally @tyme
and nah it’s like any medication you need to go back to the doctor and get a new one. I only got one a few weeks ago but I haven’t taken it to the chemist.

I have been on meds for adhd and anxiety, different ones different times of my life
