About Me
a bit of an adventurous and curious type (i.e. slacker); wanderlust seems to be part of my nature; still searching for what I want to be/do when I grow up (do I have to?); have great friends, family, and g/f... who have been incredibly patient with me always during my periods of 'fretting'; of course, anxiety, OCD, and depression run in the family, so I'm one of the gang!

Moment of Peace
Just a quick Howdie Doo? Hope everything is well.

Congrats
That's good to know. I randomly picked congrats. Seems to fit. I'm not on quite as often either because I'm busy. Anyhow, my therapy is going OK, though sometimes I feel a little slack about it. But I'm getting there.

Celebration
OK, it's the random cursor game. My mouse found the "celebration" button. What are we celebrating? I haven't been on as much for the past couple of days, so maybe I missed something. Still really busy and trying to cope off of DS if you know what I mean. Anyway, I hope you have REASON to celebrate... you've found a house maybe or you've gotten past another mile stone! Whatever it is... YIPEE!

Hug
Yeah, stick with it for certain. If you are wanting to bail, then I agree, it must be doing something. Same here.

Ray of Sunshine
How goes it? Things are pretty calm for me right now except for a couple of decisions I need to make. (I do hate decisions.) Anyway, have a great day.

Close Depression
Seems this may be more a factor than I thought. The signs were probably always there... I have a BIG problem with obsessive ruminations...
Treatments
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Somewhat Helpful
- Was somewhat helpful, but did I just "pretend" to not care?
- Lexapro Too Soon to Tell
- Writing Somewhat Helpful
- I can never tell if this helps RID my mind of the bad stuff... or reinforces it.
Close Anxiety
Anxiety. Fear. They spiral in on each other until something pops. Typically, I've reacted by pushing away the people who love me... which I almost did this time. The jittery days, the weight on my chest. It's a horrible feeling few understand and I wouldn't wish on anyone.
Treatments
- Lexapro Somewhat Helpful
- seemed to take the edge off immediately, though there are slight side effects and I'm only at 10mg.
