It’s OK to Not be OK

In February I started taking Lexapro for my anxiety and depression. Since I started I haven’t missed a day. This weekend, however, I missed Sunday and didn’t take it on Monday until after work. I thought I would be fine, but I ended up having an anxiety attack. I feel fine now, but I was so weak for a couple of hours. Now that I feel better after taking my medicine, I have realized that it is OK to not be OK. It is ok to need medicine to keep my mood stabilized. I am not alone and I want to share with others how important asking for help can be. I am so thankful I was able to start taking medicine to help my anxiety and depression. This was not my planned post for today, but I needed time to relax and settle down after my anxiety attack. I am by no means an expert. But if you ever need someone to talk to I would love to be a friend!
