Hope.

Yesterday was the first time I went back to my therapist since October. I was at that point to where I thought I didn't need to see anyone and thought I could be better off my meds since I was starting to feel " normal" soon after about a week or two being off my meds. I took myself to the er about 4 times this year due to my panic attacks. I felt stupid every time I left the E.R. They did blood work , X-rays even monitored my heart. I came back perfectly fine. I felt like I was back to square one with my anxiety. I Could barely make it through work let alone wanting to take care of myself. I just wanted to stay in bed n hide. When I finally saw my Doctor i told her how I stopped taking my meds which wasn't a good idea, I didn't give my body a chance to get adjusted to such a change. So i decided to give it an other an chance. I'm taking Zoloft every day and diazepam when I feel a panic attack coming on. But I know there was more to my issue than just taking my medication. So that's when I made the appointment to see my therapist, seeing him just put everything in a different Perspective there are some issues I need to face instead of hiding. And to not be afraid of taking my meds because they do help. But the rest is up to me. Even looking for something spiritual has giving me some type hope. Keepin active helps. Doing things what I love gives my sense of purpose back. Im learning that everything takes time and patience. And not to give up so easily. There' is a light at the end of tunnel just don't give up.
