Horse Heads in the bed



Recommended Posts

Ok, Im having panic attacks... It all started last week.

Hubby went out of town to Orlando for the microsoft conference.

No biggie.

Ok, I am ashamed to admit, but the house cleaning company came Monday. (it was a gift to myself for about... 5 months)

I didnt have access to hubby's paypal account and I sent an email to the house cleaning lady (independent, not a big company) telling her so.

Apparently, she never go the email. When I got home last Thursday, there was a NOTE ON MY PILLOW asking where her $ money was.

So I call her and told her that was unprofessional and freaked me out that she just came in and left a note on my pillow. I said you could have called or left the note on the door.

She got snippy and I got snippy back and cancled with her right then.

The only way she had access was via the garage door opener key pad.

I have disabled it.

It totally freaked me out. I had "boundry" issues with someone coming in to clean the house to begin with and she did that.

Would you have done that too?

My panic attack stems from the re-occuring nightmare that people break- in to the house.

I still wiggin' out over this.

On a side note.. I never had panic attacks until I took Welbutrin 2 yrs ago to try to help with weight loss.

What do ya'll think?

I agree, that's a little weird leaving the note on your pillow!

I wouldn't worry too much though. You cancelled the service and changed your code. Cleaning people aren't known for going postal.

OMGosh, she came into your house, unannounced, unexpected, NOT on a cleaning day, and left a NOTE ON YOUR PILLOW?!!!!!! That gives ME the creeps! Super unprofessional, boundary-crossing there. Nope. NOT okay. A phone call would have been sufficient. I'm glad you cancelled. Make sure she gets her dough, that would be the only thing keeping her coming around. I'd be mad, but not panicked. Don't keep wiggin'. You are safe as long as you don't think she's wacko over not getting her money on time. It will be alright, wavy! You did the right thing.

Wow Jill, I think you did the right thing canceling her services too. I haven't gotten panic attacks in years, and I'm guessing mine were mild then from some of the stories I've heard.

You will be alright, change the security code and go on. Have you heard of anyone else having been on wellbutrin having similiar side effects? It would be worth looking into...and checking to see if it something that can be treated. Not sure how much I would do before surgery though....I was always afraid of rocking the boat...lol and having another delay. But you cleared Pshcy...lol.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
