Going out on the road in a few minutes to a fire.  Have a bunch of home office people coming with me and dreading it!  The anxiety has been rough the last few weeks and I am frustrated as I am not really dealing with it well.  I did drive over the double decker bridge yesterday, but I did take a Xanax before I left.  I also have Microsoft Sync in my car (hands free) and was talking to a friend just before the bridge which really helped.  I also listen to the news or talk radio sometimes while driving, but overall the drive was not bad.  A little anxious but not a full blown attack.  Gotta get over that bridge again today.
Did Wii Walk It Out yesterday for an hour and got in over 11k steps.  That's good since the last few days have been bad.  I started getting menstrual cramps last night (thank God the Gastritis cramps weren't so bad!)  Sore back, sore breasts, etc.  Took 2 Alleve.  Spotting today.  TOM isn't due for another week!  I guess part of peri menoapause.  So that is not helping me today either.  Oh, and the hormones!  So today is going to be a bit of a struggle.
We also have our meeting today for David at 3pm to see if we get him into Rosenbloom Center or some other treatment facility.  So today is a little tense.  Then Catechism class tonight.  Practice tomorrow night for confirmation and confirmation on Saturday.  Trying to get my boss to let me take Friday off as a personal day.
Eating is ok.  Calories not bad last two days but top heavy with carbs and that is what I need to watch right now.  Well, gotta run.

I am not sure I could handle the bridge either! Super that you are finding ways to overcome the panic attacks. Have you tried singing yet? LOL
I so hope your meeting is productive for David today. My prayers are with you and your family.

All that stress could be the cause of TOM coming early. Take care of yourself.
