Hey Everyone!  I haven't written in awhile because I haven't been on.  I am in an outpatient program which is every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 12PM - 3:30PM for a total of 6 weeks.  This should help me conquer my anxiety / depression / OCD or at least give me the coping skills needed and meds so I will feel great again!  I just want to thank all of you for the messages and hugs that have been given.  It is appreciated greatly.  I will try to come on more often!!  Love ya!

What a bad past 3 days....Saturday I went to the Emergency Room because I was having problems breathing.  I have bronchitus and my anxiety which doesn't help.  I thought so much I was going to die that I said my goodbyes to my boyfriend.  It'a amazing how strong your mind is to make yourself think things because obviously I am still here.  Sunday I slept mostly.  And then Monday came and I cried all the way to my job.  I didn't even make it in the driveway. I turned around and called my boyfriend and he couldn't come back because he had court (he's a lawyer).  So I drove 2 hours up to my moms house just so I could be with someone.  She calmed me down and made me feel better. Then I had to go to work this morning.  It was the hardest thing I have done in a very long time.  But, I made it....the whole day :)  I am very proud of myself.  Hopefully tomorrow will be a tiny bit easier :)

"Sigh"  What a day.  I woke up twice in the middle of the night with anxiety attacks.  I had another one on the way to work, and then at work I went through a cloud of depression.  I was supposed to go to a class afterwork but couldn't.  I was lucky to make it through the day at work.  I just feel like I'm "alive" but not living.  I never think about suicide but often wonder why I'm still here because life is hard.  Then I think about the people that have it worse.  I don't think about suicide but have the fear that my meds will cause me to think about suicide.  LOL.  Does that make sense.  Anyway, I want to live to have a family of my own, and grow old with my boyfriend James.  I came home, Got a binder out from a cognitive therapy class I took a little over a year ago...and I"m going to relearn how to think positively again.  Hopefully I will sleep better tonight :)

    that makes perfect sense - it's called circular reasoning. It can over take your sense of well being and lead to anxiety and depression - you can over come it:)
