stress
so far the cravings have been bad but I am still going to my meetings and calling my sponsor. Today is when I am going to write out one of the rapes for my therapy session tomorrow. I am really scared to but i am going to try. I had my job interview yesterday. I have no idea how it went but i hope it was good. I am always in a constant state of anxiety. I always feel stressed and worried. i feel pretty down today.

Thank you. I do and I hate that I am so stressed over everything. i wish things would get better. I am tired of feeling so weak at times. I have not started writing about the rape yet because I am really scared to do it.
I\'m sorry I haven\'t been around much to chat with you. I think you are so strong for facing your past, even though it was asked of you to, it still takes a lot of inner strength to say ok, I am going to do this. It\'s ok to have anxiety over this, but know that there are many of us here rooting for you (o:
I was diagnosed w/PTSD, and depression. The stress made my depression worse. I was irritable; my anxiety was heightened, lack of patience and outburst of anger. My Pdoc. put me on Wellbutrin. There has been such an improvement in me. I am able to handle stressful situation w/out becoming overhwhelmed...angry, and depressed. Maybe you could talk to your Dr. and see if you could take that, or something similar. I am also, in therapy which is also very helpful.
I hope that the job goes well hon. You never got back to me on how the session went with your counsellor. Anxiety and depression go along with the cravings. Trust me...it seems so hard to kick the habit...but you can do it. I lack alot of self discipline and if I can do it..you can. Heres to better days hon.
Thank you everyone. I am going to be talking to my psychiatrist soon about my meds. I am so thankful for all of your support.
