Some days I could craft all day I meet some ladies on a Tuesday morning we are all anxiety suffers only about 6 to 8 of us and we are having a table top sale in a few week we need money to pay for the room we hire and I have been a member of a craft club 15 years that's on a Tuesday night but am not there tonight some times I can't b bothered and tonight is one of them The Tuesday morning ladies always look to me for ideas for our sale am making Christmas decorations at the minute we all do our bit . I have known there ladies for years and years . I am still having anxious days but definitely not all day long like I was

Well done and good luck going back to work Linda, I try and use it as a distraction and I think it does help a bit, i think I would struggle more if I was off all day on my own xx

Hi all

How we all doing lately?

Well since Tuesday I had the most horrible ache on the top right teeth/gums
It’s affecting my mood getting me really down and snappy(dp says no change there !)
I’ve had paracetamol, cocodimol warm wheat bags on my face even diazepam nothing is shifting it ,it’s driving me nuts. I’m at gp tomorrow afternoon so going to mention it, she’s not going to give me anything more than I’m taking don’t think. At dentist next Thursday
So will ask him to check(unless I can not tolerate it any longer will be before then)
I’m not aware I clench my teeth, I know I do my toes when I’m anxious and talking to people or new places.

just over 5 weeks on 187.5mg ven now, had few non anxious days but it’s also mood(which go hand in hand) that’s not lifting . Can’t remember last time I felt happy to be doing/going
Anything/anywhere. It’s always an effort then not really that interested.
Don’t know if to leave it till 8 weeks, then go up to 225mg. See what she says

Take care all xxx

Hi ladies, I think my last post crossed with yours Linda so sorry for not replying, yes I'm at doctors on Monday afternoon. It's easy to get an appointment at my docs but the doctor I see only works Monday's. Well done on the mammoth sort out Linda sounds like you had a productive day and your crafting sounds brilliant, I wouldn't know where to start.
Clio you sound like you're hanging in there, I kind of understand you about the mouth thing as I have an uneven bite which causes mild headaches but since I've been on this dose of ven I'm jaw clenching a lot and I must do it in my sleep as I wake up every morning with a stiff neck and aching back. Some days my jaw even aches. I'm having headaches every day and my arms and shoulders are very tense. The anxiety is up and down, mornings are my best time. My mood is a bit flat as well. Still at work and plodding on though.
Nicola how are you? I hope you got your son and college sorted out.
Take care all.
Jem xx
