I was prescribed visteral and I still haven't taken it. Does it help anxiety or it just makes you drowsy?

I have anxiety about my wife coming home tonight. I had such a good day with the kids during this whole virus lockdown. Now I have to pretend to be happy and I'm afraid she will notice it is fake and be upset with me.

Yesterday, I was off the charts. Then I found this forum.
I realize I need to read shared stories of struggle.
It is so easy to feel that everyone else is doing great and I'm alone in my mental health problems.
No - absolutely not true. There is so much to be stressed about. But finally I'm feeling calmer.

Sorry I just saw this now. I was on 50 milligrams for a few months in 2015 and it made me a complete mess. It made me very drowsy and my anxiety a lot worse. In December when my doctor suggested it I told him I would only go on 25 milligrams and it’s made a huge difference in my anxiety. It also does not make me tired.

So see if you can get 25 instead of 50. Less is more in the visteral situation.

I’m on Xanax too and those 2 combined make my anxiety manageable.

Currently it’s not bad. I’ve also been awake for awhile though and I don’t feel much of anything when I’m awake like this. I just think stupid stuff on TV is funny when it’s really not.

not much today.

given that today was meant to be my meeting (which has since been canceled) because of the coronavirus, I'm doing okay as far as anxiety's concerned

I'm very anxious this evening. I can't sleep. I'm worried about medical treatments I need. But I'm afraid to go to the appointments because of Cophid-19. I'll have to call and cancel those appointments. My dentist appointment was cancelled by the dentist office. Everything is getting crazy... or it's been crazy.

My anxiety has been ok today. I’m good on food, meds, and money. And I still have my job. I just have to keep from getting sick. I have a medical appointment on Monday and the office is in a hospital and I want to keep it. I think I also kind of have to?

Check with them, if it is routine they may let it go for now, or if possible use a different location.
