Hi ladies ,
bit more reassurance needed again... had a bit of a blip after weeks of feeling great , well good , had period two wks ago... and had a bit of a "doom and hot flush" then came on next day. - mood plummeted... and ive not been able to so far shake it off... its anxiety... for the last three mornings had in morning... not had for a few months.. :-/ panic that "its" back and iwont be able to go to work. (which i love) or shopping or anthing i enjoy ! i want it to disappear now !! like we all do... any chance it will
thank you :-)

Depends on what you are taking. beta blockas can help as can Valium 'as necessary'

Do you have a good result with the Seratline? and would your GP advise a Valium-type med.?
Also make sure that your body isn't hungry as that can cause anxiety surges!

I haven't recovered from changing the clocks last week, my gut is still out of sync
Have you tried slow release foods, i.e. bananas, dried fruits and nuts …….. little and often? ( I can hear Himself saying "take your own advice!"
)
I am worse in the mornings, too many commitments to face
- by mid-afternoon I'm improving, by evening I'm the real 'me' ………..

Sounds like 'normal' anxiety to me
…….. that feeling of dread 'in case' or 'what if'
