Why is getting anxiety medication so anxiety inducing? When you live with anxiety, certain tasks can feel overwhelming – none more so than booking an appointment with your doctor for support Writing | Kat Nicholls Standing in front of my wardrobe, looking at what clothes I should pack for a weekend away, I started to cry. My anxiety was at its worst; the simplest of tasks felt impossible. When you have anxiety, your thinking gets very fast and your brain works overtime. Your body reacts accordingly – cue symptoms like chest pain, nausea and dizziness – putting you in a constant state of fight or flight. This can leave very little headspace for decision-making and carrying out simple tasks. It’s no wonder that, for many of us living with anxiety, life admin often falls to the bottom of our to-do list. This can be even more pertinent when it comes to tasks involving our anxiety, such as booking a doctor’s appointment, or getting repeat prescriptions. Before we can get the help we need, we often need to overcome obstacles. Some of these are in our mind, and some are very much in the real world. But whatever obstacles you are facing, there are ways to leapfrog them, and get the support you need. >>> March 2020 • happiful.com • 73
