I saw my psychiatrist Monday– she just takes care of my meds. I have to go every now and then to update my prescriptions. Right now I feel like they are about right. I still have too much anxiety at times… but I can usually handle it.
My “anti”-depression meds are still working pretty well – I have a couple of depressive episodes every week, but they usually last less than a day. Before this, they last days, or even weeks. So I am back to mostly having to manage anxiety. And I have go much better at that.
There were other issues to cover. I will be talking with her about finding a new psychologist in April… so that will help. She likes my plan of trying to stabilize my home life for a while – as long as there is progress. So that helps too.
There were other places to go, and things to deal with Monday. Then yesterday I had someone in the house to install some “things”. So I have been pretty well drained. But today I can try to relax, and get my thoughts together again.
When trying to manage anxiety, the question always arises – “why bother?” I can hide from most causes of anxiety. I can shut myself away, and usually feel better. And it’s not like a have to put any effort into being around people… who would they be anyway?
See… too many thoughts for right now…
