How are you feeling Debbie? I know it may be a silly question....I know how you feel..more than ever I feel like no one understands what it feels like...and I am relying more and more on medication..."popping pills" -- but Debbie, we are here for you and we understand:-) You take care...

You are exactly right Debbi. People just don't understand what it is like.

Thank you very much for your kind replies, I am asking God to send his angels to help me, it was just a real bad day {full moon I guess} it did not help my husband AND my friend reacted with so much anger and not compassion, noone hated it more than me, I imagine when you do not suffer from anxiety and panic its hard to understand but its still not a comfort. Your encouragment and words helped alot, its probably the hormones too, I took a 1/2 of Klonpin it helped but I do not like to rely on it, I hope its safe and alright to take my night dose tonight, my nurse said its alright, but I do not want to become overly sedated or too dependent on it. Thank you so much again, God bless you all. Debbie.

Hi Debbi. Hope you are doing better now. I am sure that you are just more anxious since you are due for your period. I had a bad night last night. Its hard to except when you do so well for awhile. Almost like the better you are doing, the further back you fall when you do have a bad day. But these setbacks are normal. And just think, you have got through so much in the past few months. You can beat this minor setback. I didn't get any sleep last night. Too anxious. Hopefully you are doing better. Don't worry about the leg. And if you can't help but worry, call a doctor. Feel better.

Ok Deb,, Setback thats all. Your friends and family love you,, but reacted a little dif then what you would want. You're dissapointed, they are too. They want it for you as much as you do... healing that is.. And it is on the way.. Ask God to surround you right now with his Angels and they will minister unto you.... Hang tight. We are all in this trip together.. Take some deep breaths, and don't keep score on yourself... It is going to be alright.... Many prayers sent your way..... KC

I just had a full-blown panic attack, the first one in a couple weeks, I broke down and cried and cried after it was over, it lasted almost an hour, I feel weak, dizzy and naucous. My husband yelled at me and my friend called while it was going on and said "you allowed this to happen" some friend! I am so mad and disgusted with myself, worrying about a clot in my leg started this and I am hoping the PMS contributed to it, I feel terrible, so drained physically, mentally and emotionally and I am so afraid "it" is coming back I pray it does not, I am tempted to take a 1/2 klonopin, something I have not done in a long while during the day, I just take it a night, I do not want to take it now, I am so confused and scared, and the people who claim to love me reacted with anger and resentment. Please send prayers. God bless, Debbie.

Hi Everyone, I have been feeling a bit better for awhile, and I was grateful, now I feel as if I am slipping back into extreme anxiety and usually panic follows. My monthly is due {a few days late} and I know a woman's anxiety increases at that time due to hormones, My son hit my leg with a swing {heavy wooden one} last week on the middle of my lower leg, I am convinced I have a "blood clot" its not hot or terribly swollen, just slightly brusied but it hurts alot, should a bump on the leg still hurt after a week?? its by the bone and I guess I am worried because several years ago I had a clot {superficial phlebitis right next to the injury! I just hope its normal for it to hurt after a week, of course I am focusing on it and thinking about it, I HATE when the health anxiety comes back, my husband says I am slipping back into the "hypocrondriac hole" I am sure many people get hard bangs on the leg and do NOT have clots, I feel so hyper and anxious and I am sure the hormones are not helping! Any words of encouragement would help and prayers! Its creeping back and then comes with a vengence, I so want to feel normal, just when you think you have it somewhat under control, BOOM it comes back. Thanks for listening. Debbie.
