It is so physical.  'queasy' around the belly button = shakey legs.  Weak calves and thighs.  Light headed.  Slight head ache. Deeply worried about eating.  Worried about it continuing over-night into the morning.  Unable to face food/drink. Then of course Himself prods me about 'must eat' - I KNOW  :bang:  ……….

As the anxiety wears off I wee - every 10 mins. for about 3 hours and a LOT each time  :-\ …………… and on an ordinary day when I'm eating I often think "I wouldn't be able to face this when anxious" …….

It's only one night CLKD and you have been great before.

Just little nibbles of things you know you can stomach. How about one of your emergency meds,nor do they make you too sleepy.

I must take my own advice. We are away soon and I always get uptight. Kids are coming at the end of the week and my son wants to take us out for a meal....that just makes me panic  ::)

 :thankyou:

Oh that sets me off as well.  Having to book a meal out …….. we are also meeting up with friends 2-morrow evening  :-X

The emergency medication knocks me out cold within 10 mins. for about 4 hours.  At least it gives me relief but I had lots to do this afternoon so I kept Pressing On ………

Well done you for pressing on Super Trooper  :medal:

When I get anxious and all the crap that goes with it I find it impossible to function at all !

What is your emergency medication, can anyone get it ?  ;)

Nope - it's on Prescription only and begins with an 'L' ………. but can't remember the Very Long Name.  A friend drinks lager to 'get through' but I've never gone into the alcohol route.  Could bring along other problems.

Now I've got another ear-worm …… souper trouper da da da  :D  ::)

I did think around 2.30 that I was going to collapse in a heap.  Legs went weak, head began to whizz with despair ……. so I ate another Dextrose tablet …..

Also if they are good friends they will understand how you might be feeling and won't be expecting anything of you so should be less stressful maybe  :-\ x

Many many years ago...my first Saturday job I worked for a very nice man....him and his wife ended up with five sons. I was only 13 when I started my job and I ended up like one of the family. They had a holiday caravan in Dunoon. I vividly remember the older of the sons telling me they did not like the van at night time as it moved. Being very young I did not quite get what they were on about. A few years later it clicked....the attempt for a baby girl  ;D....nope just more boys.

Just remember...it moves, and I don't mean the Earth.  ;D

Panic dispersed enough on Thursday enough to eat my evening meal.  Not too bad yesterday but I sent DH around the Show Ground alone and sat in the camper.  Had to resort to ememrgey meds which enabled me to eat a banana and then have a look-see ……… and haven't been too bad today.
