Hello
My name is Michelle. I am a 34 year old mother of two. I have just this week been diagnosed with Anxiety Disorder.
My doctor prescribed prozac 10mg and clonazepam .5mg for a rescue. I will also be seeing a cognitive therapist starting next week. I understand that can be helpful?
I have had this disorder for many years but did not know what it was. I would often go to doctors thinking something was physically wrong with me. I feared I was going to die. I started avoiding going places especially at night.
My anxiety starts during the winter months, usually from October until February and peaking around Christmas. It is near constant during this time and I have a hard time doing anything.
My symptoms are hands tremble, nausea, no appetite, obsessive thoughts, tense, teeth clenching, some depression, some insomnia, fear of going crazy, easily overwhelmed, fear, tiredness.
I am looking for support and information.
Thanks, Michelle
