my anxiexty level was over board again yesterday after a day of the meds helping it. luckily i brought a haldol to work just in case. i had my long day and in the morning i was already a mess inside. i was thinking of asking my manager if i could leave early, but knew i shouldnt because of finances. i pushed through, it was so hard, so crippling and you have to always be upbeat etc... i made it through, thanks to the haldol, which i really dont like taking. i am so tired of this, it makes me exhausted and just want to sleep. walking is the only relief. i have more reason for my anxiexty to be high at work now, there is a weekly secret shopper and the one who waits on them is scored and it is submitted, of course we are expected to to everything right. ughhhhhh

Sounds like you should be proud of yourself for pushing through. I think that is a great step. Dont be so hard on yourself. I know it emotionally drains you though.

Do your best for you! That way you'll be on top of the feeling and knowing that you're at your best will make it easier to be positive.

Enjoy it..., you do make a difference in your job!!!

    Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job.  It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it.  Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.  There was a full length mirror in the changing room.  I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like.  It was a reality check.
