eternally optimistic

I'm writing because I'm sick of being on "high alert" about everything.
I'm back on citalopram which I'm cross about because I so want to deal with everything without the meds but I know I cant at the moment.
I H A T E the cold chill that cuts through my chest or the constant, and I mean constant, tightness in my stomach.. I just want to pop the feeling so that it can be alieviated.
I have to attend a works meeting every week and that is getting so hard. I sit there trying every trick in the book to cope with the horrible, horrible, scary feelings that rush through my body. The coming and going of it all. Seconds of relaxing and then WOOOSH another pump of whatever going through me. It is so scary.
I am just waiting for the meds to start to kick in, please do so soon.
I've started to avoid doing things. You know, what, I even paused this morning to stop putting my washing out.
This is all toooo complex for me to cope with sometimes.
I only wish the annoyance and anger of it all could be converted to something positive. I hate the way I have been taken over by this "alien" of an illness.
Anyway, got that all of my chest, it has helped - LOL.:wacko:
