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

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

Hey mystic...I don't think you are too harsh at all, I think we or I should say (me) all need a wake up call once in a while and you are absolutely right. I am not going to worry about that nonsense, but I think we all get caught up in something stupid like that once in a while. It's society and it's emphasis on weight and all that all crap they publicize.

Mystic,
I am having the same problems with remembering things. I am on 10mg. lex, 1 mg.klonopin & 15mg remeron. I don't know which one to blame it on but all I know it's getting to the danger stage. Like today I put a pan of water on the stove to heat & forgot about it. Crazy things like that have been happening.IT'S SCARY!!! If you figure it out let me know.

I once put a pan of sugar water on the stove to heat up for the humming birds. Forgot about it until I saw the smoke coming out of my windows!!! This was BEFORE I took any meds. We're all okay. It's the people who don't think anything is wrong with them that have the really scarey problems. Hope you feel better soon. Praying for us all tonight. Mrs. C

I am also having the same problem with remembering things and I am taking only 5mg of Lexapro and xanax. It drives me crazy...I myself have gone to the ATM and forgot my pin and it's the same pin I have been using for years. I go to the store specifically for something and forget what it is when I get there, the list goes on and on and it was really begining to scare me but now that I realize so many other people are experiencing the same thing I don't feel so scared.

If it makes you feel any better...
Can I just tell yas I spent 1,022 dollars at the dentist today. YES ONE THOUSAND TWENTY TWO DOLLARS. I am sick. SICK >>>> I was also embarrassed because i DINT HAVE 1022 dollars!!!! I had to call boyfriend for his credit card. ONE THOUSAND TWENTY TWO DOLLARS
ON ONE TOOTH!!!! IF YOU ADD IN THE ROOT CANAL AND EMERGENCY ROOM we are talking 1700$. This is such bulltofu.ALSO had about ten kids out of my one class today so I decided after lunch since it was a reasonable number of kids, we would go for a walk around the block, to relax and enjoy the sun and get some exercise...
Ok, boy throws pen at girl. Hits girl in the lip. Lip is bloody, not real bloody, but there is blood. This girl aint a takin none o this and goes after him. They are fighting on the STREET. Where there are cars and people. I am alone, outside with twenty children. I grabbed that girl and swung her around, and apparently, the other kids said she hit me, although I didn't feel it. I left her go and she went back after him, picks up a handful of dirt and whips it at him so it hits me because she misses him. I regrab her and tell someone to go get help. I started screaming at her, i DID not go to school and pay thousands of dollars for a career to break up fights on the streets or anywhere else for that matter...Then I started to hyperventilate and shake so bad I think I scared the youknowwhat out of the rest of them. I was crying as well. It was ridiculous. I had kids all over the place on the road by the road...THIS IS RIDICOLUOUS. Luckily, four of my kids ran up to the school and got help. Otherwise I would still be rolling around getting beat up by sixth graders.Did I mention I grabbed a boy on my way outside that was readying to fight? huge boy, I didnt even know.Yesterday, I had a boy punch a girl in the face and make a cut in her face from her glasses. I hate it that I cry when this happenes, but what would you do? Should I be embarrassed that i cried again for the second time this year? I feel like a fool, but I can not take this. I should not have to deal with this. I am ashamed and embarrassed, but how do you handle this stuff calmly? If i didnt cry I certainly would have sworn or said something I wasnt supposed to...HELP ME FIND A NEW CAREER! I think people not on meds would feel fit to be tied right now!

Anakin,
I was a dental assistant for 15 yrs. & never needed any major work. After I retired I had to have 2 bridges & we don't have dental insurance. So I know exactly how you feel. Ouch!!! But having your own teeth is better than dentures or partials.

Hi Anakin,
It sounds like you work in my school district. I am not a teacher but I work for the president of the teachers union in New Haven, CT and we have been experiencing episodes like this all week - what is wrong with these kids. I give you a lot of credit because being a teacher in today's society is tuff work. You guys deserve to make a lot more money because you have a tough job.
I have a teacher tell me a least once or twice a week that they didn't go to school to break up fights etc...I hope you have a better day tomorrow. 6-8 grade seems to be the worst age to teach for some reason.
Good luck
anxious babe
