Getting back to “ME”

Meds are working almost 100%. I was in adrenal failure and hospitalized but bounced back. Depression is 100% gone per usual when medicated and anxiety is about 80% gone.

Brain swelling caused me to act identical to a person w schizophrenia. Hallucinations, paranoia, and everything mixed up. I went through an entire interview for a job yesterday with 0 anxiety symptoms.

Hardlookcap, and so once again we learn from our own that anxiety is not always the cause of how we are feeling. It is just a reminder to all of us, to always see a doctor before assuming it's a mental issue. As with yourself, correcting the problem corrected the symptoms. I couldn't be happier for you. Congratulations on starting your life anew once more leaving the past behind. Go forward in strength and joy and courage. You won :) xx

I was days away from death ... they said days was being gracious... 2 long months of being trapped in my house and in my mind. Indeed I won... by a thread. A win is a win though!
