[QUOTE="tinamarie1, post: 47028, member: 255"] Hi sweetie. I know what you are going through. Just a suggestion, my regular family doctor put me on anti anxiety medications. What started happening to me was that I felt like my heart was racing a million beats a minute, then I would get light headed. He sent me to the cardiologist they did every test imaginable and nothing. I even experienced it when they had me all hooked up and I said, "see its happening right now" but nothing showed up on my tests. So they ruled it anxiety attacks. My family doctor put me on busbar and I have to take amitriptolyn at night so that I can sleep thru the night. I was waking up 2x's at night just because my anxiety levels were so high. I have also bought a sketch pad and a set of pencils and began drawing. (I have never been one to draw..I do good stick people lol). But it amazed me the calming effect it has on me, even lowers my blood pressure. Now difficult child wants his own set of paper and pencils..hmmm. I will open a Southern living magazine and sketch a picture that I see in there and it actually looks half way decent. Sometimes I think how sad is it that I have to be on medications because of difficult child's problems?? But, it is a necessary part of life I guess. I hope you find something that helps.
