My daughter recently had a cancer scare that, thank God, turned out to be benign. But in the 8 days from her biopsy and her positive results, I went into a complete emotional breakdown. I assumed that when her good news came in my nerves would recover. But they havent. Her results came in on June 10 th and I cant snap back to sanity. Before her scare, I was already starting to feel anxiety and depression over whats been going on in the news, so I think that is playing a big part in what Im experiencing now.
Went to see doctor and she said I may have a vitamin B deficiency. I suffered with extreme anemia last year and had to get a blood transfusion and take iron meds. My blood count had improved greatly when I went back in January.
I bought a bottle of B12 vitamins and hope to see some improvement in my anxiety. Praying for something to work. Already taking Lexapro for several years but theyre doing me absolutely no good.
Oh, and finding a therapist right now is nearly impossible. Many, if not all, have been closed since the onset of this virus hoopla. And if they are open, theyre not taking new patients. I feel so helpless.
B vitamins are known as the happy vitamins.
