Its amazing how my anxiety was at its best when I was a drunk.
I miss how it took away my fears and manic urges.
I took myself off my medication, it does nothing. I feel more anxious than ever.
It's funny though. i get angry at my boyfriend for not being able to hide his anxiety better, how rude of me. It's just I have spent my lifetime hiding what happens in my mind and why should he be able to let it out? That's not fair!
I still get compulsive urges. To tidy something up, or move something because it doesn't seem right. I find it hard at my boyfriends house because everything is so messy. I can handle my bedroom, because it's my disorganised chaos. I can also handle my boyfriends bedroom, however the rest of the house, I feel like I have to constantly clean and scrub. I have always had this weird compulsive urge to write out a word or number or a multiple of numbers. It sounds weird, I'd hear a word and I had to write it out in my head or on a surface or i'd freak out and couldn't handle it. I also do that with numbers, sometimes I'll think of a number, or I'd hear a number and I'd have to write it out in my head, or on a surface. I told my boyfriend about this so now he thinks its funny when I do it, which is fine because he accepts that.
I read a book tonight, about a boy who started having tourette urges and OCD. After a billion (no exaggeration) medicines, he was rehab'd back from his OCD and his tourettes got better and he could exist naturally once again. Sometimes it makes me wonder if I have a mental case of OCD. My fears can become very exagerrated and I will think of some of the most extreme things happening and then obsess on them, and this guy in the book had the same thing. I also obsess on dying and will wake up in the middle of the night from a panic attack in my sleep. I have panic attacks just as I'm going to sleep. At the moment a meditation cd is helping me relax before I sleep as I was told by my psych in Perth that the panic attacks in my sleep are flight/fight.
I am glad I am off the meds. I feel no different being off them, which is weird. I should be freaking out and being mega depressed, but I'm not. I still can't handle stress and this is the main factor for my depression and anxiety. Also when I get stressed the first thing I want to do is get drunk or smoke to get rid of the odd feelings.
It's funny, my boyfriend thinks I'm so together, and I have to remind him, it's because it's all in my head, and I let noone know, NOONE.
End note : I'm fucking mental and I love it.
