I've been on anxiety meds for about the past year and a half. They've helped TREMENDOUSLY. But with my travels coming up, and the certain anxiety I'll have over traveling alone (which always seems to pop up in the evening when I'm relaxing from the day and trying to sleep) I know I need to really be at the top of my game. My doctor told me that drinking while on these meds pretty much counter-acts the meds. Which is fine, as while I enjoy drinking (and I love love love wine), I can easily keep in mind whether drinking is a good idea dependent on whether the following day is likely to cause excess anxiety. This is complicated by a recent shoulder injury which while improving, flares up after an active day like today. And I can't have nsaids with my anxiety meds unless I want to risk internal bleeding. And a glass or two of wine would be just lovely got this problem, but then I start stressing about it counteracting my meds. And then there's the thought that I've been eating really healthy and watching my sugars and what not and it seems like a bad idea to drink wine. And then I tell myself I'm being a ninny and is probably stop worrying about all of this after a glass of wine. This post is dumb. ...like my anxiety.
