Yeah, I went to work today. Really didn't want to because I feel worse today than I did yesterday as far as being sick goes. But, I know that if I don't get up and move, I feel sicker and my sister is coming in town tomorrow, whom I haven't seen in about a year and we are all getting together to go do something fun. So, I figured if I got up and got moving, I would start feeling better and would hopefully feel better tomorrow and not be sick. I am feeling a little better. But, there is certainly some kind of bug trying to get the best of me! :mad: Ever now and again I get achy and tired and just plain icky but I took my vitamins and exercised today and am feeling better than I did this morning. Not a lot, but better. Hopefully tomorrow won't be too bad.
Thanks for the encouragement for getting through the panic attack yesterday! It was a BIG one! I haven't had one like that for a couple months so it caught me off guard. But, although I wanted to run for the door, I caught myself and used the CBT to get through it. I kept feeling the same old pattern where you have an attack and then you think about it and start getting panicky again, so I kept telling myself that just because I had one doesn't mean they have to keep coming back and that it happened, it's over, move on. That self talk really helps a ton! You wouldn't think so and it certainly takes some time to get used to it, but it is so worth the effort! I hope and pray that everyone here learns how to use it!!
Debbie - how are you feeling today?
Tiluli - how are you doing with the Paxil withdrawals?
