CMoore416 will become famous soon enough
For my head? I am in therapy every 2 weeks. I'm not sure it's helping much because I haven't learned anything but I cry and talk a lot. I Think I have too many issues to get out first. Lol I just bought a yoga DVD but haven't tried it yet. I've tried meditation but not good at it and havent probably done it right. It's like as soon as the PVCs start, all rationale goes out the window and I panic. I took a Xanax today and while I feel slightly anxious fight now as it wears off and I only took a tiny tiny dose it did seem to help today since I only had a few. I wish I just was a different person ...in ALL areas of my life. I really feel like my life is a complete mess and I'm not the person I want to be. The only person who can change that is me....

Jeff is on a distinguished road
Ok, so a little something. That's good, right? Maybe step up the therapy to once a week? It doesn't sound like you're actively doing anything to make the skips go away, and like you're almost catatonic - would that be accurate?

Until you're ready to take the *huge* risk to do something like go for a walk around the neighborhood, it's going to be hard for you to make any progress. So utilize the help you've already enlisted in your therapist? Maybe s/he can give you some strategies to cope?
