I had some salty food today. After having that went for a long walk. Stomach muscles were tense. Tried to relax them but were tense.
Came home and felt anxious.  Tried deep breathing but could do much. Felt a little high blood pressure. 

Finally took a xanax. My xanax rate is 1 pill 6 months and I tried to avoid it as much as possible. 

I quit lexapro 9 months ago and have been able to handle my anxiety usually.  

I keep thinking if I should go back toblowndose lexapro.  It made me feel so much better but was not sharp and alert when I don't take it.

I also tried manasamitra vatakam and this ayurvedic drug helps me. I just try to stay away from any drug. 

I only take it if it's absolutely necessary even for headaches. 

But today anxiety won over me. I took some antacid to soothe the stomach. I don't know if my ab muscles are sore from yesterday's exercise.

All in all a nasty experience as seems like anxiety never leaves you. I remember the days of lexapro.  Ot was so much better. Maybe I will go back to it.

Keeping busy has helped me. I had also started exercising and had boosted my confidence.  But alas some migraines later I quit it.

Let's see what happens.  Going to try to relax as xanax should kick in a few minutes now.

Thank you for reading and take care.
