Hello dear Bec Luke, hope you feeling ok. Let us know what you decided to do regarding going to emergency. I couldn't think of anything worse but that's because I don't find hospitals very kind or nurturing places.

some meds apparently flood the brain with serotonin almost immediately so you might feel ok soon after taking them. As we are not allowed to talk about meds I don't know what you are taking. Can you manage your time until they kick in? Not easy but you have a few resources at your disposal of things that you can distract yourself with.

Also try to tell yourself that it is this illness that makes us so super vigilant about bodily sensations. What we experience in our bodies are just bodily sensations and don't have to be related to our mental states. I know this is hard to grasp but try to come back to this when you feel better. It is a really important distinction that will save you a lot of future anxiety.

Gentleness and loving self talk. V.

dear Bec, please if you are worried for yourself then please go to the hospital, but take your medication with you.

Your health is of prime concern and all of us worry about you, so if you are frightened about starting these new med's, then you need all the help that can get.

Please take care and please get back to us. Geoff. x
