"We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot." Eleanor Roosevelt

Is it, or isn't it working?
I really thought the Lexapro was working, until today. For two weeks I have felt really good and pretty much anxiety free - and then today, it sort of flooded back over me. Mostly it is anxiety about getting cancer again and dying. But the OCD type anxiety is plaguing me a bit as well. I know how much it bothers me largely depends on how well I ignore it as opposed to feed it. I think I am caught up in a lot of fear. Fear is always the culprit. The fear is that I will never find any guy who wants to be with me - because I'm sober and because I had cancer. And because I can't seem to attract anything but assholes. Knowing how overwhelming that fear is just makes me realize how much I still don't like myself.
