Feel really, really stressed. Think last weeks events are still with me. My irritable bowel syndrome is going wild. Nights just mean bad dreams.
Had to cancel my appointments for the next week. Tbh I am really worried if I go outside something will happen again.
I am not as floridly upset as I was at the weekend but am not right either.
Maybe you need another AP to go with seroquel ?
Oh Iām not paranoid. I mean I had a little slip up. But the problem is stress. Stress sets of my positive symptoms.
I had an acute thing at the weekend but now the residual stress isnāt shifting.
Am seeing dots in my vision. I always get this when really stressed - had it checked out in Edinburgh.
Are you still taking gabapentin for anxiety ?
Yeah. The gp gave me a weeks worth of diazepam but not sure if I should take it. I mean it is so hard to get prescribed it now I donāt want to waste it. If that makes sense?
Stress and anxiety kicks in my mental illness. It happened to me yesterday. I have to wait till it passes
Yes, that makes sense. It sounds like gabapentin is a bit rubbish though in that case.
All I can suggest is what Iāve suggested before and thatās ābeta alanineā. I take 1600mg in the morning and I have no anxiety till about 9pm. You could try that as a PRN. Experiment with it at your own risk though !
I think it has to do with poor diet. I starve myself so I donāt get fat. I eat two meals a day. Not enough nutrition
I agree with @everhopeful, maybe Seroquel is not enough.
Iām really sorry that youāre suffering from anxiety; I also suffer from anxiety. That said, were these doctor appointments that you canceled? I ask because anxiety has a way of coming and going: you may feel much better in the morning.
Iām just suggesting that maybe it would be a good idea to wait some before canceling doctor appointments.
I hope you feel better soon.
No they werenāt doctors appointments - nothing urgent. Sorry you have anxiety too.
Thatās good news.
Will you watch a football match Saturday morning? Maybe youāll feel better.
Yeah! Sport is my saviour right now. An excuse to zone out for 90 minutes. Thanks for giving me something to look forward to!
Go 49ers! Or Raiders!
i got anxious today as well, idk how it happened but it came suddenly and then slowly ebbed away, now i am tired
