Depression Understood Forums

I take a variety of meds... for mental health and for my heart. Lately, my pulse has been, it seems, pretty low. Scary low - in the mid 40's.

Pressure seems fine. I see my doc in 2 days. I'm concerned. but, not freaked. There's been a lot of sickness and two of my friends have recently died - both of cancer. Of course, my anxiety and OCD start up thinking about MY health and odds... and all that.

I have to be careful when I stand up. Dizzy. Last thing I want is to pass out!

So, just rambling here.... giving my anxiety an outlet. Thanks for reading if you do.

I'm sorry you have to go through something like this. I've read all your posts that you've written. Sometimes I don't know what to say to them but I always read them.

Please keep us updated on how you are doing and feeling.

Thanks, JonsDragonEyes.

Cheers

How are you doing ? I've been worried about you.

That is very nice of you to say that, Star. There's no need for worry The things I go through.... and their feelings, are temporary, generally. But I do see that the feelings have created "paths of least resistance" in my brain. Meaning, for some reason, it's easy for my mind to take a feeling and pin it to some cause or event that may not be relevant.

I suppose that is part of the OCD I have. I try to "tread lightly" when I'm in a "mood," ya know? I don't want to allow it to entrench.
Not sure if any of that makes sense.

But, to my main point: thank you for your kindness. I hope you are well today.
