Hello, I have posted here before and for awhile I thought I was doing pretty good. I have not had to take Paxil or Ativan for about 8 months now. I thought I was doing Ok and then all it takes is one phone call or something to happen to throw you right back into the anxiety and panic attacks. I have a real rough time of it the last week. My son and his wife are having a real rough time of it and I get to upset about it that I go into a real bad anxiety state that can last weeks. I know it is their problems not mine but I just want to fix it. He works third shift to make the most money and he can't sleep real good during the day. I know this is a common problem with shift workers but it is really causing trouble for him and his family. Because he is sleep deprived, he is super easily irritated and angered. The least little thing sets him off and his family are the ones that have to deal with it. I am afraid one of these days he will have an accident on his way home from work because he is so whipped. I wish he could work days, but there are just no jobs out there. Also he gets paid extra to work that shift and they need the money. I just don't know what to tell him. The doctor would not give him sleep aiRAB and the over the counter ones don't work. I am having severe anxiety over all of this and there is nothing I can do. The thoughts just keep spinning in my head. Kasey
 
I feel your pain.I really don't see where YOU can solve this problem.It is complicated,and neeRAB some outside help.My brother worked a shift from 5 PM to 2
AM,and he got ulcers ,I think. He used to go to have his glass of milk every shift.
You are the one who will need some help too.Perhaps some non-profit can help.We
have tons in my area,from the United Way,on down.Thats what they are there for!!
They aren't there to sit and twiddle their thurabs. Get Help. Bill
