    In the best panto tradition ....Oh no your not !

    I've had a ' few 'Friday night kebabs and must admit I found them very tasty indeed , never had a subway tho' .. ...but Mrs FourP has never experienced the delights of kebab snacking and feeling the hit of the sauce . One day maybe .

    Have you never read 'The Takeaway Secret' book? The kebabs and sauce, Maccy D's etc are brilliant.:beer:

    I really hope they work for you. I understand exactly how you feel. I struggled (& still do to an extent) with depression & anxiety. I always found the anxiety the crippling part even when the depressin lifts it lingers. I never did find a med that worked & rightly or wrongly stopped taking them of my own accord eventually. Ive found the only way to break down the anxiety is to push myself beyond all the screaming voices in my head telling me I cant do or dont want to do something. When Ive done this its made me feel more empowered. I'm far from back to how I used to be but a million times better than I have been. All you peeps on here help greatly aswell. I am totally phonephobic, but have had to make 3 important phone calls today & I feel so good for pushing myself to do it. I would normally just let DH deal with things, but this year is my year & Im more positive that Im going to beat it than ever.


    well done you!! and I truly do mean that :) I understand how big a deal that is,hold onto that 'good feeling' you deserve too! :)

    am shocked you weren't in the q first this morning.:D I'm trapped at work and i'm trying to keep up:rotfl:

    The reason i wasnt in queue this morning,well there's 2 reasons- at 9 am i am the school gate and then....last year i bought load in 75 per cent sale and then during a year i struggled to give presents away,u know what i mean,they are just toiletries,not enough for the only present so i always topped up a present and ended up spending lot anyway. This year i decided,i would rather give my friends a giftcard from the shop they love,rather then giving just toiletries. My resolution for a year is -only buy what u can really use.

    Anyway,no shots in boots,save yourself a journey. And i have tried m&s supposed glitch but it didnt work for me,unless i dont get it

    please take care when you start your new tablets. when they changed mine (a long time ago) the tablets disagreed with me and i ended up beachy head (a well known suicide spot)
    the tablets take about 3 weeks to kick in.

    Yikes that IS a bad reaction :eek:, I was changed from my normal 20mg fluoxetine (an SSRI class pill) to 75mg Venlafaxine (SNRI) when I had a big shock back in 2009, in my mind the doctor was wrong to put me on them as I was in shock so once I got over it I asked (demanded!) to go back onto my old pills. The SNRIs have me horrible nightmares, increased panic attacks and almost manic episodes, apparently it's not uncommon with that drug (my usual GP told me that today).

    Fortunately the ones I'm being changed onto are SSRIs so the same class as the ones I've taken for a few years now, so hopefully I won't have problems. I have found though that my anti-ds 'kick in' in about a week though :D

    Well done for doing this FFT, however although meds aren't the answer for everyone,you should go back to your GP I think, new drugs are being developed all the time. The one I've been put on is called Sertraline and is being extensively used as a first point of medication for people with both depression and anxiety, so I'd ask about that specifically. Well done with the other stuff though, I'm a great advocate of 'feeling the fear and doing it anyway' so I completely know where you're coming from there xx
