We probably can’t help. You need to contact your medical team like I said in your previous thread. Is there any reason you can’t do that ?

I’m sorry you’re so anxious. I was having really bad anxiety yesterday. Can you listen to music or watch TV or something to distract yourself?

I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. If you can’t contact your pdoc, maybe try something to distract you like @Sardonic said. Music always helped me. If it gets too bad you may need to try the ER and get help there. Good luck.

Thanks for the reply… I think I will be ok I just need to try and be calm but I’m struggling to do that right now… I’m wondering how if I should just take more meds… or is that not a good idea?

I wouldn’t take any more than you’re prescribed, if that’s what you mean. I would keep trying to distract myself with music or whatever.

I hope you feel better soon. Anxiety sucks so much.

Sorry you are feeling so bad. Not sure how this works where you are, but last time I felt bad I was in another city as well. Instead of visiting my pdoc/nurse, I just called them by phone, just to talk and also discuss my medication dosage and whether to stay or go home. We had a “telephone meeting”. I raised meds a bit then and went home earlier, partly on their recommendation. Can you just call them, so you can discuss how you feel, take their advice on what to do, and perhaps discuss if they think it’s a good idea to raise meds and with how much? Or some other form of contact - email, skype?

Maybe it doesn’t work like that where you are and I’m saying something stupid… but for me, in my country, it worked.

Go out with friend or friends have a fun day out. Go to the movies, shopping, or out to eat.
