Hi everyone . Not posted for a couple of days. Been away for weekend for hubbys 60th with family which turned out to be better than I expected. Not without its usual anxieties but ok. Im now working myself up about my hols which start on Friday night to Fuerteventura with son and family to celebrate our Ruby Wedding. I should be really excited about it but am letting negative thoughts get in the way. I have a problem which is a bit delicate so wont go into it here! which means that sitting down for prolonged periods causes me pain (no its not piles!) more a female problem. Anxiety makes it ten times worse. Doc has given me diazepam to take to help but of course in my silly mind im already being hustled of the plane in a straight jacket after becoming hysterical.LOL. I must do my CBT excercise about warped thoughts again!! Oh Joy!! Im now on week 6 of Sertraline 50mg and to be honest -take away the hol anxiety i feel much more calm generally can feel they have kicked in . I do feel a bit flat though still sometimes. Im now actually sleeping better too . I was really worried about the insomnia in the beginning but can now also rest a bit in the day and READ A BOOK occasionally. So all in all looking back over the weeks I have improved in a lot of ways. Just hope this holiday anxiety thing will not set me back. Hubby and family are all very supportive so should be ok . 3yr old grandson will be a distraction too. Hope everyone else continues to progress well without too many setbacks along the way.
Mr W ... Holly is gorgeous. She made me smile this morning looking at her photo so shes good therapy too I bet.
