    Tuesday, May 20, 2008 | An Anxious story

    wow...i went to my OB and i had no idea they scheduled me for a colposcopy. i had an abnormal pap smear and i was positive for HPV. they did the procedure and i should get the results back to find out what kind of HPV it is. i dont know a whole lot about HPV, but i know that its linked to cervical cancer. i just dont know what to think right now.

  • nothing good.

    Friday, January 9, 2009 | An Anxious story

    not doing so good right now.
    i got a call from my dr this morning. he said that my hcg levels went up, but they didnt double. so it's possible that i could be going through a miscarriage right now..but it could also be nothing. he's extremely worried that i could be having an ectopic pregnancy. im scared to death about all of this.
    i have to go into the doctor at 10:30 and they are going ...

  • Panic attacks

    Sunday, June 24, 2012 | An Anxious story

    This is ridiculous! The past week all I've been having is anxiety then panic attacks. Today I woke up with so much anxiety and have had 2 panic attacks within 2 hours from another. I can't deal with this crap. As I'm typing I have such bad anxiety. Trying to breathe through it. Who am I kidding though? I've had these for 8 years and have tried so many different things and nothing has helped. I fe...

  • Hitting low points.

    Tuesday, June 26, 2012 | An Anxious story

    Yesterday I had a doctor appointment. I've never been there before so that gives me anxiety. My husband and son went with me (I don't go anywhere alone or drive). Before we left I felt the panic coming on. During the car ride there I felt it even stronger. The xanax I took before I left wasn't helping. I was thinking of taking another one but I wanted to try to control it myself before having to ...

  • Anxiety

    Saturday, February 16, 2013 | An Anxious story

    I just don't want to be this way anymore!!!!!! I want to be drug free (xanax mainly) and happy. FUNCTIONABLE. I have it really bad right now and I just can't take it. But how long have I been saying this for? 9 years? Sigh. It's lonely living like this.

  • Can't sleep.

    Thursday, March 14, 2013 | An Anxious story

    So I'm sitting here on my phone, laying in bed. My anxiety is so damn high. I took my dose of xanax at 11 and it did nothing. I practically begged my husband to stay up with me but he's exhausted so he's asleep next to me. Some starting back on my Prozac I've noticed a difference in the patterns of my anxiety, the panic doesn't happen as often. I'm usually always anxious though. Today I went to b...
