Awesome.


"Worrying is like rocking in a rocking chair - gives you something to do, but doesn't get you anywhere." For example, I interviewed with an awesome company this week, and they said they would take 2 to 3 weeks to decide on their new hire. Aside from sending a thank-you note and any additional documentation, I can either spend the next 2 to 3 weeks freaking out, or I can just chill and see what happens because what's done is done. I prefer chillin.

Valerian Root rocks. If you've go a caffeine intake, cut that back. After that, go to bed early, exercise, and eat well.

When I get really stressed, I exercise.. It really helps and gives you a natural high.

I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder a few months back and have been on Lexapro since. I did a bunch of research after being diagnosed and couldn't believe how much the symptoms fit me to a T. I have been dealing with it as normal since childhood. I am on the minimum doseage but it has already done wonders for me. I am much more relaxed, calm, balanced. I have been able to get over some of the hurdles that faced me in every day life. It has been great. I do think I may need to start looking at bumping up the doseage a bit now that I have been on it for a few months as it seems it is losing some effect.

Tried 30mg of that and did not work. They switched me to Seroquel XR and it has made me a new person. Love it!

Apparently my doctor thinks my driven, high strung personality was in need of Xanax. Lol.


I still haven't filled it.

You're lucky because they try their hardest to to prescribe that anymore.

Funny, I can't get anyone to prescribe me Xanax. and I truly truly need it sometimes.

That is the good shit, right there. I have VERY limited experience with it, but it was wonderful: Wife-"Honey, the house is on fire!" Me-"So where are the steaks?"
Wife-"The house is on fire!"
Me-"Hand me the remote."

Lmfao!!! After having been through a house fire (that my wife set), I can totally see it having that effect. Maybe I do need to fill this thing. Hahahaha.

My problem is that my mind runs constantly, I get very little sleep, and I get almost obsessive/compulsive when a problem arises. I can't let go until I have a resolution. I get so wound up when I don't have an answer, it's almost viewed as an insult to myself that I don't have the answer.

This can be bad from time to time from my boss' perspective, and for the factories I rep. In the long run though, it's why I've gained respect and relationships in my industry, so I really don't want to changerhe behavior if it was up to me alone.


The problem is, it drives my wife nuts.

I used to have Anxiety.. then I kicked her ass to the curb. All better now

Just stick it out and be miserable for awhile, eventually it will go away. Don't mask problems with meds. Took me forever but mine left.

6 years, I just had to change, rearrange, and overhaul just about every aspect of my life. Figured I wasn't always like that so I must have took a few wrong turns in life, lol.
