Mari,

If your tdoc was able to help you with that sleep issue, she could probably help you with other issues. Like anything, you have to deal with the more pressing issues first. Maybe there will be days when you see her when you feel like talking a little about the past, and therapy in that area will develop organically

I last saw the pdoc perhaps in October 2016
I cancelled an appt when I felt swamped with other appointments and did not get back to her.




TONIGHT I am so anxious. Maybe a little extra Klonopin because I am freaking out
about lots of things, one being my ability to show up for work tomorrow, others having to do with our gov and some crap I saw on FB.

I wonder if I can sort of deactivate my account on FB.

Cool Deactivated facebook

I deactivated FB for a week -- that is the longest option I had.


Maybe the week off with help me stay away.


(I got triggered by some upsetting political stuff Work Buddy posted.)
He has in the past shared stuff that is not even true so I spent time
looking it up.)

I am done bothering.

I have to get ready for work.
=-=-=-=

Feeling stressed and overwhelmed.

I permanently deactivated/deleted my Facebook account years ago for several reasons. I think I shot myself in the foot because I would be less isolated now, but I just don't think I could deal with it.

I think that getting off of FB for now is a good idea for more than one reason… it could complicate your relationship with your work buddy if what he posts is so upsetting. It would make things hard for me dealing with him outside the cyber world. Deactivating is less damaging than unfriending.

I'm sorry that FB and worries about making it into work triggered you and your anxiety got out of control

I hope that you were able to calm down after the extra Klonopin and were able to get some sleep last night

I'm sorry Mari. I don't know how you manage... lack of sleep makes everything so hard

yes deactivating could help in the short run. You could permanently deactivate, a friend of mine did that when her ex best friend started attacking her.
I wish you could get some good sleep.

I see pdoc Thursday.


She and I are on a once a month visit plan.
Maybe I will ask her to extend the next visit to six weeks.

If your mood and symptoms have been consistent and she's not monitoring you for any new meds, why not? You can always make an appointment if anything changes and you need to see her.

I hope she agrees

Default Anxious

I have been anxious all day --- since shortly after I woke up.

I almost feel as if I forgot to take my meds yesterday or
have a bad batch or something.

=-=-=-=-=-=
I took my night meds somewhere tonight between 9:00 and 10:00p.m. and have
not felt them kick in. Maybe I will feel their benefits soon.
