All day and all night my mind changes from having hope to not having hope. It's driving me crazy and exhausting me. As no one can really tell me whats wrong. First it's anxiety , then major depression, then thyroid, then calcification of breasts, then diverticulitis and the list won't stop and my husband wants my savings as he's out of money cause I can't be alone the pay the houshold bills. Love Phillipa

Jan I am so sorry you have these thoughts constantly changing and I know what you mean. One hour I can be in a positive mood and the next feel a deep dark depression coming on, and it can lift within a matter of hours! We are so alike that way.
I do force myself to go outside every day and right now am staying alone (with my 3 dogs) as hubby is at a men's retreat from church. I think distraction is the best thing for me; I wish I could have a job but I get panic stricken at the thought of going for an interview even just for a retail sales position! I might volunteer at our local university hospital but not if the volunteers are all "elderly". I don't fit that description yet I hope.
To make this med related and not get DR. Bob mad, I do think benzos for a long period such as we have been on them, can contribute to agoraphobia; I have read it many times on those anti-benzo forums. LOL, I should stay off them more.

Valene we are suggestive. And stay away from the antibezo forums are there any positive ones you know of if there are I will go there. And you're brave being alone all weekend. You get a big A+ from me. Love Phillipa
