This morning, my nose was stuffy, I was still tired, even after being able to sleep 7 or 8 hours last night.
We got in the car to go to my husband's work. On the way, I texted a note to a friend. I normally try not to do that, because reading or focusing on anything in the car often makes me get a big headache, and my eyes and stomach hurt if I do it for an extended period of time. However, I wanted to make sure I sent the text, so I did.
Shortly thereafter I felt some "panicky" feelings. Then I started getting hot. Then cold, and I felt the urge to visit a bathroom.
I took a Clonazepam. I was thinking that perhaps I can take it during the day without it making me fall asleep since I already fell asleep last night, whereas if I take it at night, I'm already really tired from the day's work, that it just makes me fall asleep.
9 a.m.
I'm a little tired right now, and could probably lie down and sleep, but I have to leave soon to go to work today, so I do not have time to sleep, but I do not have those feelings, so that's good. They went away soon after I felt them and after I took the Clonazepam.
On the drive home, I thought that the feelings are akin to feeling Claustrophobic. I remember in 2003, when I had an enclosed MRI test, I did not last long. I started feeling buried alive, and wanted to get out, so they brought me out.
The "panicky" feelings often arise, out of nowhere, as they did today, and I feel like I need to get away from those feelings. I sort of frantically searching my mind for a way to stop the feelings.
Those are my thoughts for now. : )
