Lexy, thanks for that analogy. It really makes sense when put that way. I have been struggling from time to time but in between those struggles I have found true happiness. I guess the troubled times really help you to appreciate the good ones. How are you doing these days? Sounds like everything is going well. I am happy for you. Good to hear from you. Mrs. C

Well my friends it seems I spoke too soon this afternoon in one of my posts when I said my husband was understanding...because tonight he is aggravating the heck out of me to fly out to Vegas for a couple of days and surprise our friends.
At first I thought I could do it and actually started looking online for flights and hotels until it struck me ((FLIGHTS)) I can't get on a plane especially not now with all those crazy terriorist - I am scared to death just looking at the flights.
So you could imagine what I am hearing tonight -
"oh you'll be fine" easy for him to say, he doesn't have any anxiety - he doesn't think about any of those crazy thoughts that I do.Well I told him to go by himself and meet our friends if he wants to, and he said NO he wants to go with his wife and have fun...so now I feel like a total let down because even though I know it would mean so much to him I just can't do it. It's a 5 hour flight for me and that is way too long for me especially now with these obsessive thoughts of something going wrong.
And the worst part is that he is not even mad but just looks disappointed :(
I am just venting because I know you guys understand....love you all.
Blessings,
anxious babe

So good to hear from you again!
> I go day by day and thank God for the good ones.
You got that right! Day by day is tough, but it beats all bad days like before.
God bless.

Hey Mystic,
I was wondering how you were doing today too. I had a lot of anxiety, and OCD, memory issues, and fogginess yesterday. It was the first time in a LONG time that I had to fight anxiety again. It could be from a virus I have been fighting off. Who know? It was not as bad today, but I could be better. Thank you for your prayers. You are in mine too.

Thanks, Mrs. C. It is not as bad to think I just have to wait out a virus, as the thought of going all the way back to the beginning again with meds.

In reply to RE::: Hey Simus, posted by Mrs. C on June 1, 2004, at 20:42:18
Thanks, Mrs. C. It is easier to think about waiting out a virus than the idea of going back to the start with the meds again.

Don't be too hard on yourself, Babe. You aren't just being a party-pooper. You have some serious issues you are dealing with. This is NOT how we chose to live our lives - fighing anxiety, etc. But since we have it, we have to deal with it. If we had diabetes or cancer instead, we would have had to deal with that. People seem to think that since what we fight is a brain disorder, that it is only in our "minds" or thought patterns. It is just part of our struggle - the fact that no one can understand unless they have been through it themselves. That is why this board is such a blessing.
It is possible to take a Xanax to ease the anxiety of flying, or are you just not comfortable with that yet? Do you have any other options? Can you drive? Or take a bus or train? If not, your husband can either go alone or he will just get over the disappointment. He loves you, and it will be ok. And remember, someday, maybe someday soon, you may just be feeling so great you will be dragging him on to planes to jet around the country.
God bless.

I'm sorry sistas . . . been going thru some tough times lately. It is coming up on the one year mark since my ex left, and I think it is probably to be expected for me to be feeling the way that I do, plus there are some family issues that have been pretty draining. I am pretty good at riding the waves; I will be fine. It's very late and I am exhausted, but I will try to post more tomorrow.
Thank you all for your concern. I love you all.

Hey, just checking to see how you are feeling today. I hope that today is much better for you. Please don't start to worry about having to start over. We all know all too well what worrying can do to our minds! Relax and remember, it's just a virus and it will pass. Your friend, Mrs.C

Hi all,
Thanks for all your suggestions and ideas but unfortunately we only have 3 days to travel and if I was to take a train or drive it would probably take 3 days to get from Connecticut to Las Vegas so that is not an option.
My hubby hasn't mentioned it and still loves me that same so that is reassuring.
I guess for now I will have to drive to go on vacation and that's fine for me. I will rent and RV if I have too.
I love you guys - you help me through so much.
I hope all of you are feeling well and I will talk to you soon.
anxious babe

I am a bit make-up obsessed. I plan on being the next Coco Chanel. I have tired every expenisive makeup around (expecpt Versace)and Chanel is the best around, I may have to loose my first born child but I wear it every day and always get completments!
Good luck,
lexy
