early last year i was injured when my friend go in a car accident and my doctor prescribed me some valium. it was only 20 pills and i still have 7 left. i kept them for the very bad days where the limerence took over my thoughts and made me feel anxious to the point where i couldn’t stop thinking or talking about her for hourssss. it was an extreme obsession where i’d spend hours looking through old instagram photos of her from 2015 and even cruising through her friends page for additional photos she was tagged in. so id take the remaining pills on these days where my mind felt out of control. they def work but they’re extremely sedating. i made an appointment with my doctor and explained that random times at work (whenever i unexpectedly see my LO) i get very anxious to the point where i act out character, have extreme emotional distress, and cannot focus on my job. he prescribed me low dose xanax!!! i just took some 4 hours ago and im alert enough to stay awake on it. so now basically, if i see her randomly at work, I can just pop a pill and avoid the emotionally distressing side effects of seeing her.
