F33 day 3 of 5mg! I’m super anxious about taking meds. I’ve been engaged in a legal battle for 18 months regarding getting behavioral health care for my daughter. Her father is opposed and has refused or revoked consent for her care multiple times. I finally got the pediatrician to prescribe a psyc eval after 6 months in therapy without success. Therapist is on board as well as my lawyer. The stress caught up, on Tuesday I was driving alone at night with my daughter f6. I started having an anxiety attack and pulled over 3 times, finally we got to a safe spot at a library parking lot. I couldn’t stop screaming and crying. Eventually and thankfully the sheriff found me. By the time the fire department got there my hands were numb and they said my heart rate was 150. They helped me get my heart rate down, shower my daughter the fire truck and a friend picked us up. The next day I went through the timeline with my therapist and I had been having a panic/anxiety attack for 1.5 hours. My dr prescribed lexapro and another med if I feel an anxiety attack coming on. I’m hoping to wean off lexapro eventually when my life stabilizes and my daughter is in care of a psychiatrist and there is progress with her behavior. It will be a long road still.
