I hate OCD and anxiety

So I was supposed to start my new medication for my hyperthyroidism. But my mind was not kind to me and I struggled and got so worked up about starting this it. After an hour of trying, I couldn't do it. I called Joel and he calmed me down and said it was okay and we'd work on taking the medicine tomorrow. I don't know why I get so freaked out about new pills. But I do. My mind goes crazy thinking about ever thing that could go wrong with taking it. Thank goodness for him. He is my rock and my calm. So I'll try again tomorrow but with his help I'm sure I'll be able to take it.

If you’re taking medicine for a hysterectomy, I’d be worried too. 😳

Yeah, OCD can be a buttface,

I've learned tho, that with the medication warnings, that they need to explain the worst possible outcome even tho it could be rare,

But I'm still terrified of starting any new meds because of all the warnings lol,

Also got one of those pharmacogenomics DNA tests done, it gave me a bit more reassurance

@Fishy I do this every time I start a new medication. I just get so overwhelmed by it and I start to freak out. I mean I should be us to taking pills I have taken them for years but no I still get stressed every single time I get a new one

Hysterectomy? There's an M next to your username.

Not trying to be rude. Just genuinely confused.

My advice never ever go to web md and look up side effects . A sure way to not take it lol

@kodiac @HootyTheNightOwl

Yes and my doctor went over the possible side effects at my appointment before she gave me the prescription. So that didn't help either

@HootyTheNightOwl oh yeah toss that immediately! Hoping the new meds help 🙏🏻

@kodiac thank you, I'm sure my partner will help calm me down enough tomorrow and I'll be able to take it
