I want to know if it is normal to get anxious for everything or almost every thing. I have mice in my apt., even though I'm not living there for now, I don't want to think negative, but if my mother passes away I'm going to live in that low income apt. I dont have a choice. Sometimes I feel that I don't want to live anymore. I'm taking more xanax than ever before. And also I was also used to live with my family, they've all been passing away.All I have left is my two sisters, but I don't think they would want to live with me, otherwise they would've said something about it. I'm anxious all the time thinking about the future. What can I do? I have talked to the office in the bldg. and they don't do anything about the mice. They are also running all over the halls(I mean the rats) I could stay at my mother's house but the taxes are too high for me. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Blessings, Ivonne(Bonchi)
you. Honey you've got to get out of that awful
apartment since there are rats running in the
halls. Your health is at stake! Why don't you
ask one of your sisters if they would consider
letting you live with one of them. Tell them
about the rats if nothing else. Could you pay
them a little bit to help with their
expenses? Agree to help with housework, ect?
Don't just assume they don't want you living
there until you ask. They might be assuming
you don't want to since you haven't approached
them!
About the Xanax....I used to take it many
years back when it first came out. They have
since discovered it is addicting. My pDoc
put me on Tranxene, an older drug but it
works fine and is not as addicting. I still
have some around for "emergencies." Please
check into getting off the xanax and on
another anti-anxiety med like tranxene. And
keep me posted about how you are doing.
