Dear diary,
Today was a very hard day. Yesterday, I had a very strong anxiety attack and I needed to be medicated. This brought to me a difficult decision for continuing my treatment with the medications and I was very resistant to this, even being a pharmacy student and understanding every effect. Today I was talking to my parents about that but I got so nervous with this that I almost had another anxiety attack. Even they had been uncomfortable with this idea, I explained that it is the best decision for me in this moment because I don't know what will happen if I continue to have those crises. It's better for me now and I try think only about me for this moment.
In the end of this afternoon, I went to the psychiatrist. He asked me for some things, like my routine, my family, and other things like this. In the end of query, he told me that I don't have to use the medications for a long time but in this moment this is very important for me feel safe and better. He gave me two medications and asked to come back in fifteen days.
I bought these medications and i'm start taking them tomorrow with. I have faith that everything will be okay and I will be better soon.
For today it's just it.
K.
