Hello, the Ativan did calm my palpitations for a short while. I also had some Nighty Night tea. I checked our pantry and my husband has been buying an assortment of teas that are supposed to promote sleep. Thank you so much for your recommendation. I have a dental appointment on Wednesday and I hope I can sit still long enough for the hygienist to complete the work. I had to cancel my two previous appointments with her as I wasn’t able to leave the house. I won’t take an Ativan. Thank you so much for your concern.

Thank you so much. I appreciate your concern. As you can see I am still awake. I have developed a serious phobia due to a letter we received in Sept. 2024, from the IRS about someone trying to possibly use my social security number to gain employment. It triggered something in my brain and I developed an obsessive/ compulsive disorder. I know it sounds ridiculous but I truly feel this is what happened.

Mad in Americs was a resource I checked out. I did not medical advice from this site but harm from psychiatric meds is real

So sorry to hear, I’m afraid it’s going to worse with the current administration. People refuse to understand depression and anxiety. I hope you feel better.
