So I've been doing really well. Feeling much better. Not having the constant fear of feeling panicked or anxious then today it comes flooding back.....for no real reason. It's so frustrating. I'm off my diazepam and beta blockers. On 30mg of citalopram. Eating better. Going out and doing this and the bang it just hits you. I hate how it controls me. I'm really looking forward to staring a group counselling session and hopefully some CBT. Its been nearly 2 months since i started my citalopram so i guess its still early on but its just so annoying when you have a lot of good days and then a bad one knocks you back again. Please tell.me I am not alone!!!
You are definitely not alone, I have the the same thing happen to me. I can go 4-5 days feeling great and have one day where I struggle to leave the house. Luckily so far my bad days have fallen on the weekend. I think the most important thing is to just accept the bad days, everyone has a bad day, and do whatever makes you relax and feel good on your bad day because tomorrow is another day and you'll be good again . I do understand your frustration though.
Thanks very much for your reply. I'm doing better now. I think you need to get up and get on as best you can. It's frustrating but we have to get through it. Take care
