Carolina the tablets will do nothing but help you. Once you get use to the idea of taking them, you will stop panicing. Have you heard of Clair Weeks? She writes books about panic, why don't you have a look at your local library or on line. I read one years ago and it was a great help for me.
Now you have the tablets working for you, and your training, to run in run for life. You have made two huge steps to help yourself and it will give you a purpose you are going to get better. xxx

Hi Irene - here's me with visions of you sitting sipping tea and six sheep sitting in the living around you!!!

Irene what a lot you have going on. Where in the world are you? 6 sheep, 3 cats, and two dogs for company? Is it the tablets! lol. Bless you .
Hot bath sounds great ( why do we always fancy what we can't have)! OH will want one when he gets home, but will have to wait a couple of days until boiler is replaced.

Thanks Ann. Thought sheep were a bit large to sit on her knee! xx How are you today Ann. What was your day out like with Jude and Daff ect ?xx

Day was brilliant, me, Daff, Jude [plus sister and OH] Puss and Specky and Star - absolutely lovely day allround - beautiful weather too - thank goodness it wasn't today!!

Please pass on some of that beautiful weather, it's SOOOOO cold here, they are promising another 10cm of snow tomorrow.

Carolina we are cheering for you, when i can't sleep at night (I can fall asleep in the chair anytime during the day!!) I tackle a crossword or suduko puzzle, makes my eyes tired!!

It occurred to me this morning that watching "talk shows" on TV, where they interview folks who have had tragedies in their lives, or miracle recoveries from accident etc, I get right involved emotionally and feel down the rest of the day. now I try and turn on music instead, cut down listening or watching the news also, it's always bad news.
