Trying again

Ok..today is a new day for a fresh start! Last year I did this program and stopped at 13 weeks because I felt so good I didn't feel I needed the rest...well, BIG MISTAKE! I have been struggling for the last 2 months and I have been trying desperately to get myself back on track. I am not doing very good on my own. I am having daily and some days Hourly panic attacks, anxiety non-stop, I cannot relax at all! I am agoraphobic again and feeling depressed lately...so, this morning I got up and called my doc, who called in a prescription of Celexa for me and I called the local Psychologist office and there was a cancellation today and he can see me this evening! And...I got out my program this morning and started it...I think with the program, working with a psychologist ad some meds to help take off the edge to get me on my feet...I Shall succeed!!

Good for you to start the program again, you can and will do it and you have the tools you need. I know how you feel and wish that no one would ever have to feel like this, it sucks but there is hope and we are ok. Do you go to church? I do once in awhile but not like I should be. Yesterday I went and was in SHOCK, the last month or so I have been having anxiety, and panic attacks and freaking out about nothing and everything. So church yesterday the Pastor asked how many of us has been feeling aggiataited, nervous, anxious, and worried? I just strated crying and felt like it was just me and the Pastor and no one else. He was talking to me and church was the place that I would hear him and boy did I I was just overwhelemed and in shock. So of corse there is hope and we'll all make it through, maybe with different methods but we're ok. Congrats on trying to help yourself again and keep us updated on your progress. Bobbie

Way to take the bull by the horns and wrassle her down. Good job!

You are right- you shall succeed. You sound persistent like the rest of us hearty souls.

Hope your day is well.

Thanks guys!! My Psychologist appt went very well, he really made a lot more 'sense' out of anxiety and panic attacks for me and I left there feeling very positive and full of hope! I think I found a good one!!! I took my Celexa and it really helped with my constant anxiety feelings and panic attacks but they make me feel VERY nervous and shaky...even feeling like that I did not panic...but I called my doctor this morning and waiting for them to call me back with advice on this! I hope it is something that will go away because I find that the Celexa is really helping me take that 'edge' off so I can focus on getting better! Or at least prescribe something else that doesn't make me so trembly! I hate meds but I cannot get my head to focus on getting better so I think they will help me get steered in the right direction!
am so thankful for you all, for your posted and positive feedback! It truly means a lot to know I am not alone!
