As my doctor says... if someone is going to have a reaction to something, it's me! LOL All SSRIs (new ADs)have the opposite affect on me - cause panic attacks. Last one sent me to the ER and the Dr. said no more SSRIs. The "things" I have been diagnosed w/ are like a grocery list, but like you, I'm trying to take it one day at a time and not let the "what ifs" overwhelm me. I'm blessed and fortunate to still be working, according to my doctors - very high functioning for someone with CFIDS (now listed as an AI disorder), Fibro, possible leaky gut, chronic candidiasis, kidney disorder, "and the list goes on.." LOL You learn to be thankful for each day you wake up and can dress yourself... As far as counseling, I've worked in mental health most of my career - now working in guidance at an alternative school (love it!), but was in counselling a few years ago - cognitive behavioral...EFT...best part was the kind, compassionate clinical psychologist who basically validated me and my feelings - like everyone else, lots of baggage, the worse being years (especially when younger, since I've dealt with this since age 12) - of being told "it's all in your head". He validated me by proving that although people may not understand your illness(s), they are in fact very real and most people would not be functioning. So, I'm blessed any way I look. Just have those days (and weeks). Praying for your total recovery too. Thanks for the response.
