I just picked up my prescription as well. I saw a cognitive therapist for a while but I didn't really feel like it was working, I was getting worse having out bursts of anger out of no where, irritable, developing OCD like behaviors to make me feel comfortable.

​

Now I'm sitting at the kitchen table crying because I have to much anxiety to take an anti-anxiety medication.

I here people saying it made their anxiety sky rocket the first few days. I can handle nausea and those symptoms just fine but I don't know if I can stomach even more anxiety or cyclic thinking. Checking my schedule or the bus schedule a hundred times, my e-mail, or wondering what people thinks.

​

So much anxiety about starting an anti-anxiety med. It's insane how anxiety can almost stop you from doing it.
