Update on mental health... TK ate Original

CCO2012

TK ate my original post!!!

Here is a summary...

Yoga = Awesome, Thanks Shoes!

Psychiatrist upped my dosage of Xanax because new med before trip in 2 weeks is a bad idea.

Looking into homeopathic doc and/or a counselor/ psychologist when I get back from Venezuela.

Yay! Glad to hear you are doing better!

I'm trying to get back into yoga...I miss it. I used to do it for years, then life got in the way...I'm waiting on a response from the studio on pricing

Good idea with the meds thing...switching before a trip, especially an out of the country trip...yeah, not so good lol. I've got a prescription for Xanax for my asthna/panic attacks, but i think in the 3 + months I've had it - i've taken one. I hate meds I need to find another acupuncturist around here...i haven't gone to one since living in FL.

Are you getting excited for your trip??

CCO2012

Yes, very! I have one more gift to buy, for my grandfather for his bday... funny how that's the one I have left. All the others are just because lol... Next week will be the big run around finish getting things together week. I am taking my 10 year old sister with me and we are meeting our dad down there. So we are planning on doing all the last minute things together on my day off next Monday... Should be fun!

Hm. I might have to look into this whole yoga thing. It's so hard for big girls though. LOL.

CCO- Glad you are feeling a bit better!

Did the increase in meds make you feel better?

Glad you're feeling better CCO.

I need to pick up the new script today. So, we will see! I hope it helps... I figure I will take one on the way to the airport and give my sister a Dramamine when we get there and we should both sleep until Miami Having the BF home from his business trip helps a lot too

ETA: I am by no mean tiny and I am not flexible at all! The Yogi helped me a lot to figure out the positions and with time I think I will be able to get a hang of most of them... The one where you have to press the back of your legs flat on the mat is very hard for me lol My tush is VERY large (bigger than JLo or Kim K) and it got in the way a bit.

I am glad things are going so well!

I forget- have we talked about any yoga DVDs that anyone likes?

CCO2012

I don't think so, but I would love to know of some good dvds when I run out of the ones I got from groupon.

YAY!

I'm so glad that you're feeling better. Exercise can really do wonders for the chemicals in your brain. Definitely follow up with your doctor after your trip though, you might still want to think about a SSRI-they made such a difference for me.

I LOVE yoga. I really need to get back in to taking an actual class. I've been doing some of the videos on Comcast ON DEMAND and they're pretty good.
