I WANT TO GO BACK TO WORK AGAIN!!!
I HAVE BEEN OUT FROM WORK FOR NEARLY 3 MONTHS NOW DUE TO PANIC ATTACKS AND ANXIETY! I WORK IN SALES DIRECTLY WITH CUSTOMERS AND AT THE TIME I WAS WORKING I WAS GETTING REALLY ANXIOUS AND UNCOMFORTABLE! I REALLY WANT TO GO BACK SOON BUT FEAR THE ANXIETY AND PANIC ATTACKS WILL MAKE ME TOO UNCOMFORTABLE TO DEAL WITH! I AM TAKING DOXEPIN NOW AND HAS HELPED SOME WITH THE ANXIETY! LAST NIGHT WAS THE FIRST TIME IN ABOUT 3 MONTHS THAT I WENT OUT TO DINNER WITH MY FAMILY! I WAS A LITTLE ANXIOUS BUT MANAGED TO FINISH THE MEAL AND LEAVE WITH FAMILY WHEN ALL WERE DONE! I USUALLY HAVE TO RUSH THROUGH THE MEAL AND LEAVE THE RESTAURANT AND WAIT FOR THE REST OF FAMILY TO FINISH! I FEEL LIKE THAT WAS A SMALL ACCOMPLISHMENT FOR ME! ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS THAT MIGHT HELP IN ME RETURNING TO WORK ANYTIME SOON! I HAVE TO DRIVE MY CAR TO APPOINTMENTS AND GIVE A SALES PRESENTATION AND DO PAPERWORK! I WAS WONDERING IF I CAN GET THROUGH THIS WITH THE HELP OF XANAX OR ATIVAN! ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD GREATLY BE APPRECTIATED! THANKS

Wow Pauly you sound just like me!! I have been out of work for three months as well due to my anxiety. I also was in a sales job. I have also been on and off of Doxepin the past couple years since it makes me very tired. I go through the same thing when I go out to eat with my family. Maybe someone here will have an answer for us.
Hi! I just seen your post and wondered if you have this program? Have you started it yet?
This program will help you break it all down so you can understand why you have these feelings and what to do when they come on.
It is very freeing and you can go back to work, and have what ever kind of life you want.
It is hard work and everyone goes at their own pace. You are at the right place though.
I would like to encourage you to keep with it. I used Xanax for a year to control panic attacks, and now I can dis empower the thoughts that produce them.
Good luck and keep posting!

Hi, just wanted to add a few thoughts to the subject, I was out of work for a few yrs, I worked as a mid to senior executive in a company & just got stressed out from all the pressure & couldn't control my anxiety. I got the program & it really worked & was able to go back to work for about 5 yrs, but eventually the stress & anxiety was creeping in again & so I am starting the program again, I only did half the program the 1st time, so maybe that's why I relapsed, but I think it has more to do with letting yourself be compromised & taking on too much. I'm not working for anyone right now, I'm self employed & can stay that way but if I'm honest with myself I miss the office environment & would like to have that option available but need to get my anxiety under control again. It's not something you can just remember, but need to go thru the Program step by step. So here I am again, it's a little depressing, but at least I know the cause & remedy. I would recommend you get the program, it's worked for me & lots of others, maybe they have a payment plan, also I did see some programs selling on eBay at a discount especially the tapes as the program is on CD now. Hope I haven't broken any Stress Center rules by passing this on.

I've been on disability for depression/anxiety for 6 months now. I'm getting more scared every day that because of this I won't be able to get a job again. I's a very lonely life I'm leading, isolated and sad all the time. I'm not sure how I'm going to make it out of this awful time. I just have to keep asking the universe to give me strength, guidance & courage - and remember to say Thank You too.

Re: I WANT TO GO BACK TO WORK AGAIN!!!
Hi Hope
Yes I am feeling much better now! I have been on the Doxepin for 3 weeks and am seeing a Therapist! Most of the Panic attacks are gone and the anxiety level is at a minimum but hardly noticeable! This is really great compared to where I was just a few weeks ago! Its like night and day! I have been doing other things as well! Mainly with the improvement of the sleep which i was so deprived of back when I was at my worst! I also ready positive materials and have been working on my stress levels! Only thing that is lingering is the slight dizziness which stops me from exercising as I would like to! Exercise is my next goal! I hope to maintain and improve this feeling because it really is a turning point for me! Thank you Hope for checking in with me! Let me know how you are doing too! I hope you are doing well!
