I have been dealing with an uncomfortable amount of anxiety for months now. I went off Lexapro to try Cymbalta, and Cymbalta was largely uneffective in managing my anxiety and depression (it didn't help the migraines, either). I am back on Lexapro and working my way up to my former dose. In the meantime, I find that I am often experiencing racing thoughts, grinding in my stomach, an overall feeling of dread, and this huge weight on my chest. I think I have finally convinced myself that it is time to go back to therapy. I cannot keep trying to deal with this on my own.

an elephant on my chest

Besides migraine, I have several other chronic pain conditions. I've been seeing a therapist for over 15 years. Initially I went once a week, but over the years I've decreased the frequency. Still I wouldn't consider stopping. Therapy seems to fill in a gap that I don't get anywhere else in my life. I support you in getting the extra help. It's very hard going it alone.
