I just want to feel good.

I am having panic attacks.  I am worried about going to the grocery store.  See?  Little things upset me sometimes.  But this weekend I wasn't feeling good.  So I have been spacing out the psych meds I take.  Sometimes they make me sleepy/woozy.  Most of the time I can space them out and take them when I don't have anywhere to go.  But today I am trying to be easy on my body so I am taking the pills one at a time.  That means that I am a little dizzy/tired after taking a pill.  I was going to go to the grocery store, then I wasn't.  Then I was.  Then I wasn't.  I was panicking by that point.  I finally talked myself down and told myself that I should just lay down and relax.  That I am making a wise decision because I really shouldn't drive when I am feeling woozy.  I told myself that I have food.  I can eat the food I have tonight and tomorrow.  I'm not going to starve.  Relaxing is the right thing to do.  I just want to feel good.  I just want to put on earrings and fix my hair and groom my eyebrows and feel pretty and happy when I go to the grocery store.  I want to talk to people and feel up.  Instead I drag myself through days.  I'm trying to relax.

Glad to hear you are working through this and YES .... most of the things and grocery store is an item many face....we put it off and then panic we should have or could have gone etc.... 

When we take a moment and see if we can get by today or maybe even tomorrow that every trip or errand does not need to be a hurdle and uphill... so good for you to find some peace and go when you feel better or not the " I have too" thing.
