Breakup/Advice

mikayla

Hi everyone. So, I'm going through my first breakup from what I thought was a happy, fun relationship that lasted almost a year. It's been 3 weeks and I'm still crying myself to sleep. That is, when I do sleep.

I deal with generalized anxiety disorder, and this event has skyrocketed my anxiety. I'm so panicky all the time lately, to the point that I lose my appetite. I don't eat much, and when I do, I feel so nauseous from the anxiety. I do take a daily dose of citalopram, and I have lorazepam for emergencies.

What do I do? Everything gets so much worse at night when my mind has time to wander. How do I get through this in a healthy manner?
