    guess I got overconfident

    I was doing ok with modding, then I got depressed about some things. One thing that was helping was keeping a handwritten chart. But I was getting sloppy about making time for the hypno. I did start on topa, but then started taking effexor again because I was so depressed, then yesterday I forgot the topa. I'm trying to be objective...ok, I'm finding out what does and doesnt' work. The supps help, the hypno helps, the topa seems to, and the effexor seems not to. Exercise, too. It's so easy to get caught up in puttering around doing stuff that seems important. But I do need to clean the fish tank...but I can do that when my daughter is home. must go for now...sorry for rambling

    Understand completely. I need to stay on the supplements/topamax & keep exercising. Hang in there!!!! :l

          It's hell...I think another mistake I made was to start drinking more coffee. And when I see certain family members it tends to be a trigger. It all worked together...Hang in there...taking a walk today helped me feel better

            OMG Agapanthus!!! I was on decaf almost exclusively since August and then started to feel warn out and needed a boost in the morning since like October! I got back to almost three cups... and my resolve faltered. I was thinking the caffeine might be making me anxious and then I thought 'nah!'
            Staying calm is key.
            I added a teaspoon of caffeinated instant coffee to my decaf around 5:30 this morning, but that was it. I will watch it now. Thanks!!

              Crazy, huh? I have to limit myself to about half a cup (and that's a big mug of strong french roast, so I have to be careful!)

                It's a learning process....what works, what triggers drinking. Having a plan and learning from upsets helps getting on with this journey. Thanks for sharing and being so honest. It is very helpful to me and hopefully to others.

                  Thank you, too. It has helped me to see other people's posts and their honesty as well. If anything, there's good news - that the supps, etc. do help!

                    Yesterday I didn't take any of them and guess what, messed up again. Wish things didn't upset me so much that I lose sight of my goals and forget. I did start effexor again and at the right dose, it does help, but I forgot to take that, too. Better go take all that stuff before it happens again...

                      Hi Aga, sorry to hear you are struggling.
                      For me, I need to be quite regimental in my life to stay on track both mentally and physically. I easily get upset too and its all too common for me to focus on the negative and forget the positives.
                      Keep on learning from your triggers, I know its not easy, but thats how we move forward.
                      Best wishes to you.
