Hi Mystic,
I am doing fine. I have just been sitting back & reading all the posts instead of jumping in. I have a son & family that lives in England & the two oldest grandsons are coming for 2 months. They are so lonesome for the USA. They have been in England almost two yrs. So I will have a busy but enjoyable summer with them. Thanks for thinking about me.

haha no wedding bells for me, at least not anytime soon! the wedding was beautiful though. i have been on 20 for about 2 months and have been feeling pretty dizzy and spacey...i just think it's too much, so i'm going to try 15.

thankyou i'll keep you informed. i have q long road ahead of me. but i have my mind set. hope i don't get anyset back.. i want to loose the weight i gained after the dead baby. i gained 135 lbs in about 6 months. i also quit smoking the same year as my son was born dead. now i have built up strength and am ready to tackel the weight. if you can live thru the baby thing you come out a very strong person. i was already strong, don't know what the good LORD is preparing me for but i will be one powerful being when its all said an done. with HIS help that is. GOD IS GOOD! ALL THE TIME!

Hi everyone...I am still very new to this site so sorry for not writing. I am still doing great on the Lexapro - I have been taken it for 7 weeks now, this is the only medication I have ever taken for my anxiety/panic disorder besides xanax. I only had to take 4 xanax while on the lexapro and that is great considering I had to take one everyday. I hope everyone is feeling good with the summer approaching, although I am struggling with the 15-20 pounds of extra baby weight which is a bad excuse now cause my baby is almost 3.
I am trying to face the facts that I will never have a decent swimsuit body again, but all these TV shows don't help. It seems everyone is having some type of surgery done to make themselves like a barbie doll and it kinda makes it hard for the average body type woman to keep up. I really was considering some type of surgery like breast augmentation and some lipo but of course my anxiety makes me feel scared that I might die while being put under for any type of surgery. Does any one have any advise about any of these procedures.
Sorry I am just feeling a little down today about my body - I swear it's that show "the Swan" it always makes me depressed. I am not going to watch it anymore.
Well thanks for letting me vent! Talk to you soon
Be well,
Anxious babe

Wow! So glad to hear you have seen such great results with Lexapro! =)
> I am trying to face the facts that I will never have a decent swimsuit body again, but all these TV shows don't help.
You have to remember that the people you see on TV and in magazines are the most beautiful of the beautiful, and the thinnest of the thin. And most of them STILL have work done. And then they STILL have wardrobers and makeup artists and airbrushing to hide their flaws. So what you are seeing is not reality. Hollywood has done a LOT of damage to women in our society by making them think that this unobtainable ideal is the "norm" and so they can never measure up. Turn the TV off and just put on a swimsuit and go to the beach. I guarantee you will see reality there, and after you look around for a while, you won't feel so bad about yourself. And have fun there - build a sandcastle, go swimming, soak up the sun... Life is too short, and you don't get a second chance at it. So enjoy it now, with or without the extra 15 lbs.
God bless.

dont worry, im sure most of us have felt that way at some point. i know i have! lex is not supposed to cause weight gain, so that's good. try walking with the baby, weights or something at home, and LOTS of water! good luck...em

I have some advice anxious babe..Love yourself just the way you are and be happy with yourself I know it is hard but those shows are absolutely rediculous and you wait after about 6 months or a year they will look weird because the fat deposits in different areas and your face starts to look funny and there are complications from the surgeries...Enjoy that sweet 3 year old you have and dont worry about the rest...We all want to lose some weight and it will happen but you have to do it the smart way by excersising and watching what you eat..I worry about weight also but I work out a lot and am not bad but I would give it all up just to feel better again...
I hope that isnt too harsh but holy moly they have tons of those shows on and it just makes you feel like there is something wrong with just being who you are it really infuriates me...Its tv and magazines and people...maybe I'm so hot about it is because my daughter had a terrible eating disorder and we are hopefully over it after the birth of her son..and I just think life it too short to worry about these things but there is so much out there that makes us...
Anyway...I havent met or seen you but from your posts Im sure you are a wonderful person and that is what counts...Take care..Mystic

Well yo yo's I need help I'm not doing so good on the increase..Well truthfully who knows...I'm just feeling not so great..I have those scary feelings a lot during the day I just cant explain them they are just all of a sudden its like something goes through my body then I get really scared that I'm going to lose it then it kind of goes away..SO not a panic attack...But
Today on my way home from work I went to the bank to deposit my check and couldnt remember my pin number I tried it 3 times...and got so upset I went to my arobics class then went back to the bank thinking that I remembered it but I tried another 2 times I was shocked it didnt take my card from me couldnt figure out why it didnt..But it didnt work.I use this card all the time..So started crying and was driving home feeling just out of it...I have been forgetting things really bad lately...I forgot to order the signs for the conference I have tomorrow night and 1/2 the time at work I get up out of my chair and cant remember what I was going to do >..I have always been multi tasketed (spelling) but not I can hardly answer the phone..Has anyone else had this problem and does it go away..I finally drove to another bank by my house and finally remembered it...holy pooh I couldnt believe it..This is making me crazy and I'm already crazy...Just hate meds and hate this feeling...!!!!!!!
Sorry to bring anyone down just not feeling my best I'm on the 4th day of the increase to 15mgs and almost ready to give it all up all together...not having fun yet!!!!...SO cant take that post back to anxious babe I got a little hot and I'm sorry but i just want everyone to feel good and not be thinking that they arent good enough...SO me off...Thanks for listening...Hopefully you stopped reading after the first couple of sentences...Luvya all I will be better soon..!>!>>!>!>>mystic

Hi everybody, I haven't posted in a few days. Now that my finals are over and the kids recitals are finished I can get back to "me"! Yeah! Sounds like all are doing well. Trucker, good to have you back and good luck on the weight loss. I know what a challege it can be. I love food! Anxious babe, I have just started losing my extra 25 pounds of baby weight and my baby is 8! You are way ahead of me. I have 10 more left to lose and I will be back to where I was. Let's all try to support Mystic right now, she is in a very bad place and needs all of our love. Thanks everybody, Mrs. C
