I've been seeing a therapist since I was 27 years old and now I'm 56 and it just seems like it's getting worse hopefully my doctor at the end of the month will give me different medications that's what my therapist thinks I need she's a newer therapist too it's just like a can't find any peace anymore I can't relax until I go out I feel like I'm targeted by everybody I deal with practically I mean I took my sister to get procedure done the day before yesterday I was at this very well known Medical Center and there's a security guard everywhere I went to I just feel like I couldn't relax so I practically almost lost it there cuz I was freaking out thinking I lost a couple of things when I actually didn't and I feel like my workplace has a lot to do with I have no energy I'm not looking forward to going back to work on Monday because of work environment is really really hard to deal with. I just wish I could sleep all the time and avoid any public or emotional situations

Sorry you are struggling at the moment. Hang in there and take it easy on yourself. People suck too so don’t let them get to you too much and do what u gotta do at work, but don’t let it get to u too much. Chin up. You got this. XO

Thank you, Say. I hope all is well with you .Trying my best I've been using earplugs I've been thinking about using earplugs to go out to. I know I need to keep control of my stress because of my stress my blood sugar is highly elevated I haven't eaten any sugar or rice at all.

have you tried headphones and listening to music you like? I actually tried that recently and for the first time wasn’t rushing through the store with my cart like a speed demon lol. I slowed down and was able to just enjoy my music and this move slower which helped reduce the anxiety a lot. Try having extra protein snacks every two hours even when ur anxious really helps regulate the sugar. Cause that’s not the business. Mine would drop and the feeling is crap.

I am sorry you are having a tough time. I had the same issue too and had to get a job in a school with little kids. They can be tough but watching their innocent faces makes me so happy. Making them laugh everyday gives me a lot of joy. I am not at my best but much better. I pray you find something that can give you joy.

My anxiety went through the roof after menopause. Have you ever thought that changes in hormones could be affecting you? I went on hormone therapy, which helped a lot.

Actually I think I'm going through menopause already but I haven't been diagnosed with it but I've noticed that the medication that I've been on for quite a while hasn't been working
