Writing Helps

  • May. 14th, 2008 at 12:14 PM

So in my previous post, I said I couldn't muster the will power to get out of bed. Still true a whole 10 minutes later. But do you know what? Writing about it helps and so does reading other posts about anxiety.

 It is comforting that I am not alone, and maybe not the only one who is having trouble getting out of bed today.  Sometimes I feel like I am one big panic attack. I mean... how stupid is it to be trapped by your own thoughts.  I hate it.  I want to get back on my benzos.  I just don't want to be on them everyday.  I suppose my body will let me know when I have forsaken my dependence  on the green little pill called clonazepam.  But that moment is so far away.  Time flies when your having fun right? Well I am not having fun and find myself just being more down on myself and hard. 

Its not like I had a rough childhood or have a specific reason to feel this way.  If anxiety is genetic then certainly it does run in the family but I am so frustrated.  I want to be more appreciative of what I do have.  Why is it so damn hard right now.  Does anybody have a word of wisdom about going though  a benzo withdrawl?  Is what I am feeling normal? Everything is so loud and bright it is overwhelming.
Thanks.

clarity by default...
"Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, does not change."

and NOW for my 'fingertip' diarrhea...
this is a standard by which to evaluate and discern the difference b/w- "My?" reality (often self-skewed by my own mind; although, (random banter) I do, however, often misplace my mInD, along w/ my car keys & evrythng fkng else I really, REealllly need that day...anywho...(end random banter:) Vs. the reality in which I/my Life/whatever operates, or as boring plp refer to as "actuality"- *yick*
- or some shit-blah blah ;~)

hope this quote helps you, too, on your journey to "see the light" at the end of your tunnel...
