I wake up every single morning thinking "today is going to be better" and every day I come to work and have anxiety attacks, check my pulse, have brain shocks (for lack of better term), get SO foggy headed there is pressure in my head and I can't even think straight...literally, cannot think straight. I have to lead meetings - just had a meeting - and couldn't even focus on what I was doing or saying because I was so foggy and panicked.
When I leave to go home, that all goes away. The anxiety isn't 100% gone but its manageable and I'm not in a constant state of panic. My body is finally able to relax. My husband does not understand. For the most part he thinks that I bring this all on myself.
We get a two week break for Christmas and I have no intention of going back to work at my current job, except, I do not have any other source of income lined up. I am desperate to find a work from home job. My nervous system..my mind..my body in general..they all need a break. I've been in this panic state for 2 years basically daily with this job. No one seems to understand except y'all.
I'm so overwhelmed. It's all so much. 🥺 I really don't want to get back on meds...especially just to be able to function for a JOB when there are so many other options.
