Anxiety is a bummer

Hello, I'm Andi2. I have anxiety and panic attacks. The insomnia that I have with the anxiety is absolutely horrible. I just had a flare up and think I may need to go back on Paxil. I just tapered off in early July.

I am there with you. It is a lonely path but we can walk it parallel.

I am sorry I don't know better words to articulate the pain. The story is ugly and sordid. The effects are the same, can't breathe suddenly if there is a trigger, apathy about life in general and a hopelessness like I have never known. And I have to smile and pretend I am fine to appease family. Sending love your way.

Anxiety is def.no joke, if it's like mine it can come and go without a reason leaving you feeling exausted.It is something we have to learn to deal with, I have yet to do that but it is a work in progress, so keep your chin up
