I'm taking pills!

For so many of us, taking any sort of medicine, especially pills is hard for us and it really is on of my big issues since all my anxiety started. Trying to get into better health, I wanted to try some vitamins but have had bad experiences in the past because my system is sooo sensitive, so of course I was really scared. I did some research and decided on ordering the best money could buy because of purity and water soluablity (msp?) and the support I would get from the place I ordered them from. I started them 8 days ago and I was anxious at first. The steady kind where you just feel like going some where but you have no where to go and I just kept busy and used self talk to keep myself together. At times I felt I was close to panic but it never happened. At first also, I could have sworn they made me feel sick but I tried to ignore it and figured it was probably my nerves more than anything. That bring me to today. I just uped the dosage this week end and I feel pretty good. And, most importantly I feel comfortable taking them. Wow! I guess I am so happy for myself, I just had to share it!

Great for you. I am glad that you have comfort for taking the pills and they are making you feel better.

Good for you for having the courage to take the pills. Sometimes you just need a little medical help before being able to mentally help yourself. I just started taking Effexor to help with my anxiety and panic disorder, and after reading the side effects I was really nervous about taking them. The first night was the worse I woke up feeling really sick to my stomach and I could hardly walk to the bathroom without feeling like I was going to fall over. But since that night I havent had a problem with it. Ive only been on them for 3 days and I am looking forward to the full results (probably in a couple weeks).
