Really really low point

I am really having a hard time at the mo. It is not far off the first anniversary of my dads death and coming off the effexor is making me think about him more and the circumstances of his death.

I am also just about to take on my work for discrimination against me for my mental health problems and asthma.

These two things are giving me a headache which I have now had for 4 days. I have panic attacks at work and am fearful of even going.

I dont know what to do or how to get through this. I miss my dad. I want him back.

I'm so sorry about your father. If it helps, I'm thinking about you because this board has been so helpful to me, and some of your posts in this group have helped me.

I'm sorry you're going through these things. I've had similar experiences with work in the past myself for different reasons. My father also passed away and I miss him even to this day. I'm not sure what I believe in really, but I choose to think hes around with me when I need him. When things are bad with me, I think I miss him all the more. Things will ease up over time tho, its said alot I know, but it will. He's with you in some way, and then you have all of us here to.

    I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
