Going AWOL for a few days.

[Doom!]

Got some personal stuff going on, dealing with a serious anxiety attack that has pretty much put me down for the count the last two days. Got to get my act together, see you guys in a few.

Keep your head up. Knock on wood but I have managed 4 years now without a full-on attack without prescription meds. One of the toughest things for me was that people that haven't experienced a panic/anxiety attack can be real dicks about it but they have no idea how serious it can be.

A couple of years ago I received a message on Facebook from a former manager that had been pretty nasty to me when I was first struggling with it. He had apparently started having attacks a while after I left the company and their treatment of him quickly made him realize how badly he had treated me. It was for the best in my case because I wouldn't have been able to recover if I had continued working there.

Get well, see you soon.

Oh man - hope everything will be ok, get well soon!

 

[WickedFog]

Hope you get better soon man. My first wife had those attacks, and it was really scary.

 

[ahr43]

Will miss you, my friend. Take care. Come back when you are ready. 'AC'

Take care bro, we will leave the light on for you.
This place wouldn't be the same without you, so hurry back.

 

[Joe crawler]

Stay strong my friend!!

 

[Greywolf74]

Take care bro. We'll be here when you get back

 

[Xraycer]

This better not be a ploy to get that SCX6 Honcho! Because if it is........it's brilliant!

Take your time and get well, J.

 

[Slick2500]

Hey man do what you need to do to get your head straight.

 

[Mrgoodwrench35]

I hear new RC cars work wonders for anxiety.

 

[Chubaka]

Sorry to hear that. Wish you the best.

 

[Hammer Down]

It’s all good homie, we ain’t goin anywhere..

 

[Doom!]

Thanks guys, Anxiety is a great weight loss tool, I've had to make myself eat for the past couple of days. Imagine thinking of all of the things you worry about, multiply that by 100 and then find yourself fixated on those things and unable to think about anything else no matter how hard you try.

It does a number on you, cold sweats hot flashes, super weak, no appetite, just want to sleep. I have mostly slept since sunday morning. I am feeling a little better but still shakey. I haven't had a bad anxiety attack in about 10 years so this caught me off guard.

Big thanks to all of you for your thoughts, it helps. Well except for @Xraycer...he sucks, because I didn't think of this brilliant plan!

 

[Tunedfrog]

OMG @Doom! change of life.
On the serious side, anxiety can hit us all and some worse than others. I'm glad you are feeling a bit better today.
You know you can't stay away from us...

 

[WickedFog]

Glad it is subsiding @Doom! You weren't gone long, thankfully. Now go eat something and rest bud.

And by the way... if anything is bothering you, and you need someone to talk to, pm me.

 

[Hammer Down]

What! Who said you could come back already..
kidding buddy!
This place sucks without you!!

 

[johnnydmd]

Glad to see you feeling better - and same goes for me, I'm always a PM away.

 

[Doom!]

Wasn't sure how long I was going to be out of it. Didn't want to disappear without warning. And, yes you guys are addicting. Now I know I'm damaged.
