Lexapro generally dials my anxiety way down (I think this most recent bout of it is probably heavily influenced by hormones), and from what I remember, Zoloft worked really well for that, too.

Ativan helps me with my occasional attacks, and I've managed to avoid going back on any long-term medication for my anxiety. (Well, I also didn't have insurance for almost a decade, so I didn't have much choice.)

Citalopram has kept me sane for the last few years with added Lorazepam as needed. Which has been less lately than it used to be, this week excepted.

Thank you for all the support and encouragement during my "oh crap, I didn't write my paper and then my brain went to crap for two days after finding out a friend committed suicide but I have a 12 page paper I HAVE to write" marathon yesterday.

My teacher has already graded it. I didn't get dinged for submitting it an hour late. He had lots of notes about how I provided substantial discussion on some topics and then was lacking discussion and citations in others. Which, yep. Yes, that is exactly what that paper was. But I pulled out an A in the class, so I'm ok with that.

I had been fussing about having the same teacher two, and with my new class three, classes in a row. But I have to think that he gets to know who has a clue and who doesn't. But I'm not going to even hope for such a save in my next class. I'm setting up all the papers tonight using a basic template and plopping the paper requirements into the discussion area so each one is ready to go.

ltc has a rash and the oven little started melting when I preheated it for dinner. Smoke everywhere. Monday is being very Monday.

Hooray for the clutch paper doing its job!

Smart! Sometimes the blank page is the hardest hurdle to get over.

Bad Mondays. Yay for getting the paper done.

Day 2 of virtual school and E is here and it is going to be a day of ticket to Ride and Catalan. Also he brought me a thank you card for his presents.

With 5 dollar bill in it. He likes to give money with his thank yous. Me and my parents got 5 his parents got 1.

Heh, individual brains are so weird. I've been on Welbutrin for years with added daily sertraline (generic Zoloft) for anxiety.

Whereas I quickly stopped taking Wellbutrin because it gave me a 24 hr anxiety attack.

I think I'm getting a cold. NOT ON, BODY. Don't you know I have flights to take and Hamilton to see?!?!?

Hurray for the A, Suzi. And go you, being all organized.

askye, nature and/or nurture, we definitely get that worry thing from our parents. Every time I go home I am reminded how far I've come in managing my anxiety. And then I want to kill them because they are driving me bonkers.

Zoloft is really helping my anxiety, which was terribly on prozac.

I went around with my fists clenched all the time with sertraline.
