Hi, I have anxiety with alittle OCD to make it interesting. Ok what's it like, Hmm...
I could be having a great day: I remember to pack my lunch, go to the gym, remembered to pack my work closed, got the money for the kids lunchs, and got to work on time. -Cause for celebration :cool:
Then all of a sudden a chilling thought goes through my head, Sometimes I see an accident or I think about what I would do if my parents died. Lovely, lovely thoughts. And I spiral down. All of a sudden nothing makes me happy, colors don't seem so bright.

Ok Ok. This is the worst case example: normally, I will just see a sad video or a disturbing tv image or hear something sad on the radio. I'm a magnet to sadness, Not depression. I worry all the time about things. But so you don't worry, ;) , I will let you know that I've been in counsilling a long time. I know when I'm about to start anxiety, I know how to distract my mind and I can laugh after anxiety. I've been on Prozac, Welabutrin, etc but alas I'm one of the 6% that reacts adversely with the meds... (not an uncommon thing with me. I'm the only person I know that falls asleep when I drink a cup of coffee. ) Diet has helped me the most. I don't eat sugar, or foods I'm allergic to. That has helped me alot.
