fed up with my anxiety.

I cant take this. Nothing works. I wake up scared. Of EVERYTHING. This is honestly just too much. I'm tired of overworking myself up to the idea of ending up in an insane asylum and wont be able to care for my kids. I am so FED UP MAN

I know exactly how you feel. That's how I still feel at moments. Even being on Lexapro for 6 weeks already. Trying natural supplement exercising, etc. But we have to keep trying and living life. Especially for the kids. Do you have any coping skills? Journaling helps me a lot and listening to Joel Osteen. Are you on any medication?

I take a mood stabilizer called lamitcal. It's somewhat helping my mood swings but my anxiety is still there. Of course.

I am so sorry that you cant find the right med. Have you tried xanax? It seems there are alot of people out there with anxiety and depression , suppression too. Society makes us believe we are suppose to have all kinds of things and tv makes us think we arent good enuf or pretty enuf or have enuf. Go back to the simpleness of life. Enjoy what you do have. Keep pressing on 1 day at a time.

Im too scared to take it. I don't like being sedated and definitely dont want to get addicted...
