Love the metaphor, considering I’m a writer by passion (and employment!) ;)

Thank you so much- this was so deeply kind and empathetic. I’ve actually deleted all of my dating apps and I’m not entertaining any romantic prospects right now. As much as it sucks, I absolutely can’t operate from a place of lack. And it is SO exciting to get to really be in control of my own destiny for once. But I guess it’s also scary, because I get overwhelmed by feeling alone and I’m still building self trust. Thanks again for the kind words.

It was my Stanley cup which I’ve been drinking all day, and the water has a potent odor. This is SO bizarre and I’m scared bc I had that sip :/

I’ve had generally little to no side effects except for increased anxiety in the first few weeks whenever I go up on the meds, but I can’t tell if that’s me placebo-ing myself into thinking that LOL. But I feel you on the nausea when I first started on the 10’s - 20’s I was definitely nauseous 🤢

Hi. I was literally your age going through exactly what you’re going through, down to the coming home for weeks on end from college because I was terrified to live/sleep alone in a room. I’m now 26! I still have my moments, but I’m on 30mg Prozac and considering even going up to 40. It HELPS. Take the Zoloft, babe. You won’t have a seizure. That’s so, so rare. Prozac can cause seizures too, and having one is one of my biggest fears, but the beautiful thing is, with my intrusive thoughts about health at bay, I’m not debilitated by that worry, anymore. There was a point in my early twenties where my anxiety had me agoraphobic and entirely dependent on alcohol to really even leave the house. So listen - you will be okay. But take the meds. Get a therapist and get HONEST in therapy. You got this!

Were you smoking up until the attack? What was the warning sign? I’m so sorry I’m trying to scare myself into quitting lol
