Thanks KayeBaby for responding...

Thought I'd put up an update....

After posting...well taking it off at night seemed to help eventually, as if I needed to calm/withdraw or something. On Tues (4th time), I was at work during day after putting it on (started putting in a.m.), and I didn't have anxiety. Maybe sitting home, I got scared??? I don't know. distraction helped. in p.m., spoke with pdoc, explained, suggested that I'd start putting on full patch during day but take it off at night. She thought it was possible i was getting some anxiety, said I should stay with half patch but to leave it on during night too. I did and actually that night was ok with sleep. Not best, but not any more horrible than premed. So even next day (Wed), did same, left on at night, slept ok..not worse. I have no anxiety now, maybe 1% of time. Makes me wonder if it's working??? feels like am taking a sugar pill...no effect, side effects.... I've been putting on about 2/3 or patch now..i may increase it tomorrow to the whole thing and see. Thing is I'm traveling/out of country for 2 months in about 3 wks...so this was not right time probably to start something new.

So far, the most annoying thing about this is taking it off...ouch...painful as I've got hair/lanugo??? (whatever that is called). Some spots more sensitive than others....

Will see how I feel in couple of days... Thank you for responding :)
