Okay..after 2 days of being Normal....I woke up fine, but in the middle of making breakfast for my daughter, a wave of stomach upset and anxiety.
I'd gone to the doctor 3 days ago and he prescribed Prilosec OTC for the chest pressure and pains that I've been having. It's a regime that needs to be taken for 14 days, with the earliest results showing at 4 days (2 days from now).
I also JUST started seeing a therapist (again). It's going to take at least a month or two for us to really break the ice, but I do feel good at beginning this; Anything to help my situation.
My husband is off to work, so I'm alone...and my challenge today is to NOT fall into the dark side. I'll do my best to try and distract myself, but the sharp headaches are starting, and that combination of stomach upset, headaches, and heightened anxiety levels all make it really hard to keep my spirits up, as well as making distraction hard. It's like my head and my digestive system are little rambunctious 5-year-olds all pulling and tugging at me for attentions, and Anxiety is yet another one who is also yelling that more kids might be showing up any minute.
So I have to just do it one hour at a time, and try to NOT concentrate on anything bad.
