Hi everyone,

I went to a new psychiatrist today. I'm going to try prozac and gradually will be going off of the buspar which never did much for me (buspar's an anti-anxiety med), and he also gave me valium to take as needed for panic attacks. Thats a change from the xanax which was giving me d, about half the time. I really don't want to be on any more drugs but as I'm having such a hard time while in therapy, I've decided to try. I've also gone back to meditation, in an effort to work towards not being on these drugs for anxiety my whole life!
Therapy is going well, but its so hard. Twice a week - and getting in touch with a lot of squashed emotions held onto since childhood. It has not been fun to say the least. This week though, I've had a couple days where I felt stronger than I've felt in recent memory my anxiety/phobia. It doesn't last but its amazing to experience that at all.

Ladies & gentlemen take my advice, pull down your pants and slide on the ice.
