Yes it is a dreadful experience, but so common that's the thing.
I also have rescue remedy spray and am constantly spraying that in my mouth lol!
I also take CBD oil and I do find that a couple of drops of that calms my brain for a bit.
I know what you mean re the butterflies in tummy feeling. I have that today and that is because I have to drive the fast bendy road. I did it yesterday and was fine and two other journeys which I hate, but it doesn't seem to stop the anxious feeling for some reason!
Do you work at present? I do, but have quite a basic job. Would love to find something better paid, but the thought of an interview.. no thanks!

Hi again Nas
I was working up until May and now I don’t work due to this aniexty & always feeling like passing out which is aniexty I presume
Docs did a thyroid test and that’s come back in normal ranges
Still awating blood sugar levels results.
My inr however is great so seems my bloods always seem ok ( thankfully )
I worked in a kitchen & for health and safety reasons was not good with this aniexty & always feeling jittery and shaking & that’s why I no longer working ( I miss work but if I’m not comfortable in myself how can I fulfil my job role )
I miss work & people but i know this was getting worse not better.
I just can’t wait to get back to my normal self … if I could get rid of this anxious feeling I would be fanstastic lol
I have been pushing my self to go out .. even when im having the headrush feeling which is the worst feeling , just so im used to going out
as before all this I was never in never mind staying in
I’m doing it alone now aswell where as last week week before I only did it with my husband & most times that would be going for a drive after he finished work.
So I’m my mind even if I walk to mother in laws which is literally same street takes about 10 min to walk maybe less it’s somthing as in a start & not that far where if I was to have a big aniexty episode I can walk back quick kinda thing
Before initially starting HRT I never stayed in doors only one my day off on the morning .. by afternoon I was gone and everyone used to say you never sit still
Haaaaaa how time changes lol
I’m hoping that once I have this bleed which is deffo due this week that my own hormones settle to how they was before the HRT .. which would be better for me as I would beable to do everything I’ve always done & only feel like this when a cycle was due ( that was pattern before )
I live in hope Nas
I also know I can’t let this beat me
I’ve used twice today two sprays of rescue remedy and felt calm both times I also don’t want to come dependent on this
Just at the moment well since May it’s been bloody awful
April was my first aniexty but that was a one off few days before a cycle .. that was before HRT … so I would say may was when it became too much although first two weeks of HRT was fab lol .. with all other symptoms.
Strange how our bodies work
I have an CBT course booked in and started this month .. so hoping maybe that and a rebalance of my hormones help.
My GPS ( get a different one all the time ) have been good but limited on time & probably was sick of hearing off me
But my pharmist is a godsend & talks loads through with me .. she was one who suggested tht I stop the patch or lower it as thinks too much was making symptoms worse & then after emailing DR heather , she basically confirmed the same kinda thing
I do feel better off them .. now is the task to get myself back to how I was
That butterflies/ hunger feeling gets too much when feel it cause your waiting for it to go bang lol 😂 I have to laugh as I would cry ( actually I don’t cry much , I’m just more angry at myself for not been able to control this better ) and I shouldn’t be such a tit about it
I’m glad you still able to get out and about Nas .. I’m glad your fighting along that’s my plan .. beat this go forward and stay forward hahahaha sounds good written down now need to put into practice
