Whoa! Setback Today.

[JAYnLA]

A couple of hours ago, after not enough sleep and a stressful morning with work, I had a major wave of dizziness - felt like I might faint - followed by lots of anxiety. As luck would have it, I had a therapy session an hour later which I was able to attend. We worked on allowing the negative and constant barrage of thoughts that the attack set off - that seems to be the key with this healing from anxiety thing. I'd been having a good week - couple of weeks, really - and yesterday was an actual good day. Just writing here to remind myself (and share with others) that setbacks are to be expected and they don't mean we aren't making progress.

I need to be reminded that setbacks happen and that they don’t mean we’re not making progress. Thank you for posting this.

Thanks so much for sharing. I'm new here, and this is exactly how I was feeling this week.

I slept longer than usual this morning, probably from a combination of exhaustion and ativan, and I feel much better. It passed. As it always does. I read some of Dr. Claire Weekes last night for the first time in a while and it really helped.... again! She was a genius.
