    • About Me

      I'm a National Guard soldier's wife and mother of a 12 year old daughter. I have a boxer that I absolutely adore. I love shoes and boots! I live a pretty normal life for the most part. There are always exceptions to that though.

    • Interests

      I'm a self proclaimed computer nerd and enjoy "fixing" computers. I also find joy in laying in the yard with my dog. That is where I find peace. Sounds crazy enough huh? I look at it this way..he loves me no matter what, he doesn't back talk, he doesn't ask for anything but food and water, so when I lay in the yard with him we are just content. He's happy that I'm giving him attention, I'm happy that he's happy.

    • Close Panic Attacks

      During the beginning of this year (2007) I had some anxiety issues. I was questioning my marriage yet at the same time looking for a new home to settle into. I had alot of "what if" questions going through my mind. "What if my husband doesn't love me like he says", "what if we buy a new home then divorce", "what if we buy a new home and my parents need care". Then my mother-in-law came in from out of town which pretty much pushed me over the edge. I started on Lexapro which then caused PA.

      Treatments

      Xanax Working / Worked
      I used for 5 days in the very beginning to rest and bring my anxiety level down. It helped for rest.
      Lexapro Not Working
      On the 3rd day of taking Lexapro I started having major panic attacks. Before the Lexapro I was just basically moody and ill. After the 1st panic attack the cycle started.
