For the past few months I have been having problems focusing and remembering things. I feel like I am in a fog off and on, its not all the time but maybe 1-2 times a week. I have asked my doctor about this and they rearranged my anxiety medications, he said that some of them can cause those symptoms. It got better for a little bit and now its back again.
My dad passed away 2 weeks ago and since then it has been even worse. I have been in 2 small accidents, one i hit a planter at the gas station and then today I hit a parked car as I was pulling into a space.
Just to make my day even worse, when i went to pick up easy child from school, there were news crews all of the place. I almost had a full blown anxiety attack right there. I called husband and asked him to go online and see if something had happened today and sure enough a kid had threatened to go on a shooting spree last night at the school today.
I actually had a moment in my car where i sat crying thinking I don't ever want to leave my house and I don't want my kids to leave either. I know that is not good sense, and it went away about as quickly as it came.
We were driving home from Florida a few weeks ago after seeing my dad in hospice when we were stuck in the aftermath of the tornado that hit Suffolk, VA about 20 min from where I live. They literally closed the entire town down, I could not get home, couldn't get on the interstate. Another anxiety attack happened then.
I have bad anxiety problems and things like that really make me spin outta control. I know I can't make it without my medications and I am really afraid if they up my dosage it will make my mind worse than it already is. I don't know what else to do.
