I'm a single mom to a special needs child and I'm constantly under stress and sufffer from anxiety. I'm freaked out because I keep getting weird head sensations especially at night which causes me to panic. I just feel weird in general. Shakey, headaches , weak legs, the muscles in my head, face and neck keep feeling tight, nauseous....could this all be due to stress and anxiety?? I started Paxil three weeks ago and I swear it's making my anxiety worse 😭

No, I have no help. The only break I get is when he's in school, but it's summer break right now. So I won't get any relief till September 5th
I only have my mom but she works daily full time. I don't have friends anymore. He was in summer school but that ended at the end of July, so I'm kinda stuck for the month of August
Speak to your doctor about the paxil. Would any organisation give you verbal or physical support eg a rest from your child so you could reccoperate?
Emotional support may be a better wording.
I know there's something called respite care that will watch a special needs child and give the parents some relief for a few hours. I've never looked into it but I'm going to now
I'll definitely try that, thank you!
