I felt completely depressed a few days ago. Today I feel pretty damn good... I went to an Air Show today, surrounded by about 10,000 people and I was FINE! The weather turned bad so there was only one display (a few helicopters doing tricks) so I'll be going back tomorrow if the weather is better, to see more aircraft doing their thing hopefully. Looking forward to it!

That will no doubt dwarf the one I went to today! The location for the show could barely be called a city compared to Chicago lol :) It was cool though... I almost felt normal walking around, taking the odd photo. Gives me confidence for my future.

If you remember (and you have a camera) I'd love to see some photos of the Chicago show! :)

Yeah I went there with my Dad, though I walked around on my own for a while (which is when I felt most normal). I had a bit of medication helping me out too, Propanolol and Diazepam. I felt quite at ease :) I was also trying to "think confident," which seems to be working for me recently.

I'm the most unhappy i've ever been in my whole life

im sorry sleepysparrow. *hug*


i feel the same way right now. i cant remember a time i felt more miserable and horrible and sad and depressed. ::(:

I understand the feeling ::(:
I don't feel right, I wouldn't quite say the worst I've ever felt, but I feel something wrong that I can't pin point exactly, weather its just the lonely feeling, anxiety or a combination of everything, but its as if I have that feeling in the heart when you're about to cry, but I can't, and its just there most of the time.

Wish I could help too. I'm sensitive to others feelings. ::(:

I am feeling well, thank you. I'm a little tired because I spent all night doing laundry since my dog pissed on my bed soaking through the comforters, blankets and into the mattress. I had put the mattress out to dry after I tried blotting the piss and as I was doing laundry it began to rain. My mattress wasn't too soaked though. My husband and I cut up plastic garbage bags and wrapped the mattress in them, put the clean comforters and sheets over the plastic trash bag covered mattress.

I got up early because I have a second appointment with my shrink who I might not keep seeing. The first time I went she kept suggesting that I try Paxil after I told her numerous of times that I did not wish to take medication for my anxiety. I've done my research and I'm glad that I didn't take that sample that she gave me. Again, after I told her that I didn't want to take it.

Only after the third time that I refused the medication did she ask me whether I arrived by car! She was trying to get me to try one in her office without thinking about the possibility that I would be operating an auto vehicle?

She didn't even diagnose me with anything! She started suggesting that I take the medication ten minutes into our "session". So today I am going to tell her that I won't continue with the sessions if she doesn't give me an alternative treatment to medication.

I had to ask her about the negative effects (theres no such thing as side effects only effects) to which she replied headache and nausea. I'd much rather deal with my anxiety than deal with headaches or nausea any day. I've read about many other severe effects of this medication. I'm not going to advise for or against this drug since I'm not a mental health care professional but I absolutely refuse to give in to the use of psychotropic drugs to sedate or mask my anxiety symptoms.

Id have to agree with both of you.. But I always try to look for the silver lining. Up until a few weeks ago I had come to accept how bland my life had become. Basically given up.
I'm kinda grateful that I've started to feel emotions again. The more depressed I get the more motivation i have to fight back.
