Getting
sick in September 2011 was literally overnight, and life altering for me, and it also had - and
continues to have - a major impact on my immediate family, particularly Ron...
I believe
speaking about mental health problems is the best way to fight stigma... so I'm
sharing that I feel anxiety and depression because of my vestibular migraine
condition, and my vision disorder...
It can be
draining, and exhausting... my frustrations, disappointments, etc. invade my
thoughts, my sleep, sometimes disrupt my sleep... so I've decided - finally -
to seek out a psychiatrist to help me find an anti-anxiety med or
anti-depressant... I'm very sensitive to side effects, and sometimes ingredients
can cause a migraine, so I'm worried about finding a med.... but it's worth a
try, and I want to believe there's something out there that can help me...
I'm not
going to stop my therapies, but I need more to help me deal with what happened
to me... I want a med that will cushion - a little bit at least - the pain of
loss, of sadness, and soften the edges of anxiety... I want things to be a
little be easier... it's time... I'm ready.... so here's hoping I can find
something with a psychiatrists' help...
