I have had CPTSD, PTSD, And GAD. My anxiety levels can get extremely high because of any of the above and very often crosses the line into panic. Recently I’ve been dealing with a stalker who attacked me and leaves lettters in the lobby of the hotel I work at threatening to do so again. I am also a new manager and we are understaffed and last week I worked crazy hours, double shifts (6am-10:30pm), lots of call outs so working by myself (delivery all the breakfasts to cabins, check outs, housekeeping assignments, coordinating with maintenance, phone calls, making reservations, time-keeping/ admin. tasks)…It’s been ALOT. I reached a point where I felt very manic and overstimulated and could relax (hiking 15 miles on the weekend helps but the second I stop it all came back. Ended up having a debilitating migraine and then passing out at work the following day.
Anyways I finally had an appointment with a doctor who believed my physical symptoms were stress-related and didn’t try to prescribe an SSRI (they make me manic).
I am now taking GABA and felt SO calm today. Not sure how I feel about it long term though. Any advice/ opinions?
