@margot69. Thank you for sharing your story. That is an experience that would have sent me over the edge too, nice to hear how you came through on the other side. Helps to hear your experience. I am afraid I am stuck in this house...I thought a different and more expensive house in a quieter neighborhood with a yard for a dog would make me happier and it hasn’t, tough lesson to learn, old house really had everything I needed. We got a puppy too for my daughter and I am not used to animals, so that is wearing on my nerves. First world problem. @merry you are smart for staying in your house! I did end up taking the other half of the Xanax yesterday before bed. The lexapro and Xanax just make me feel groggy, and I am having night sweats still from the medication, literally am lying in the bed I made. Hoping the sweats dissipate as my body acclimates to the meds. Thank your for your comments, so much.

Dear, don’t let pile of bricks ruin your health! I am in a similar situation like you for the last six years living in the house that I absolutely hate, and planning to sell it and move to another one. It causes me a lot of stress but I try to do yoga, walking, watching comedies, laughing, listening to nice music etc. I very seldom take Xanax, maybe half a pill once in 10 days before bed time. It doesn’t help much but I don’t want to take it all the time because I know how dangerous this medication is. Try drinking one or 2 cups of chamomile tea at night and take magnesium 500 mg. It really has very relaxing benefit. Think positive. I hope All goes well for you. Regards

And you got a new puppy?! Well, I showed dogs for some years. Need any tips, hit me up. How old is your daughter? I went through a period of night sweats and that is annoying. Eventually, they went away. I have taken Gabapentin for years, so I know that groggy feeling. I have decreased my dose quite a bit. Now, that is a med that is hard to wean off of! Hope you have a better day today! I hope, as time goes on, things will work out.
