Today, when I picked up my repeat subscription of anti-anxiety medication, they had changed the packaging to be more 'child safe'. Now it's so hard to get the pills out that I had an anxiety attack trying to take one. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I had a anxiety attack about taking my anxiety medicine. FML
Today, my mom took away my medication. She's afraid I'll get "hooked". The medication is anti-anxiety pills. I have horrible anxiety attacks that sometimes cause me to scratch my arms until they bleed. FML
Today, I had an anxiety attack because I thought I'd lost my anxiety medication. It ended up being on the shelf right where I left it. FML
Today, after a week of being tired and depressed, I realized my bottles for anti-depressants and muscle relaxants had gotten switched around. FML
Today, just like everyday, I opened my med box, took out a blister pack and took one of the pills before putting the pack back in the box. Today, not like everyday, I had diarrhea. Turns out one of the packs was laxatives put in my med box by my boyfriend because they looked the same as my meds. FML
Today, I was prescribed medicine for anxiety. Without it, my stomach churns all day. With it, I shake uncontrollably and my eyes twitch. Now I have to choose between diarrhea and rude stares from people in public. FML
Today, my doctor lectured me for 20 minutes about 'drug seeking behaviour' when I asked for more anti-anxiety medication. I need it because my shithead 15 year-old son found my pills and took them to get wasted. I need the meds in the first place because he's constantly pulling shit like this. FML
Today, like every day since my wife was prescribed antibiotics for an infection, I had to hide one of the pills inside her food, because she'd apparently rather fall seriously ill than swallow them like an adult. FML
Today, someone at work took my delicate medication out of the fridge to make room for their lunch. Now my medication has expired. FML
Today, my doctor finally prescribed me some medication for my arthritis. The cap was insanely well-secured, and my hands were too racked with pain to get it off. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I think all negative commenters need to read up on anxiety disorders before they come to a conclusion of 'stop being a pussy'. Trust me, I'd love to not take meds and be normal for once in my life. But, my brain isn't like everyone else's. Gladly I haven't had a panic attack in over a year because of my medication. It's nothing to joke around with. Some people can lose motor functions because of panic attacks. I literally went blind from a panic attack once. If those who make fun of people with a mental illness had to live in their bodies, they would feel like utter shit. Just had to get that off my chest because I've suffered for years trying to find a way to control my disorder.

18 - Anxiety is no laughing matter. I know a few people who have anxiety attacks and/or panic disorder. Something so small can trigger an attack; it doesn't mean they're a pussy.

That really sucks OP. I have alot of severe panic attacks which can get really intense and painful so I can definately sympathize with what happened to you. Other people writting just say to man up, but it's not like panic attacks only happen when you're frustrated, or at least for me they dont. I typically only get them when I'm in a car...I could be in real danger and never have an attack, but put be in car and I'll freak out and think I'm going to die. Just be glad you get medication though, none of those pills work on me, so I dont really get any help with it.

I'm the same, no anti anxiety pills worked on me, I just felt so foggy and drowsy all the time that I couldn't even process the world around me. I decided I'd rather feel the fear than have to feel no emotions at all.

Anxiety attacks are often deadly, so OP actually has the right to post this.

Probably it is part of the treatment...if you overcome the anxiety of opening, you may not need the pills anymore.

i dont understand what causes anxiety attacks? is that just people who dont know how to control their emotions or is there a real scientific problem with their brain?

Chemical imbalance. At least that's in my brain.

And your little girlfriend there eats too much candy. Grow the **** up dude. Anxiety is a serious issue. You being an ignorant prick doesn't make OP a candy-ass. Reavaluate your life asshole.

Rebel, the more posts I read of yours, the more my ******* eyes want to bleed. So much ignorance. Maybe you should leave the cap off your anxiety bottle, too.

Hey bitch, I didn't say shit to you so STFU. I'm talking to the ******* assholes who are so close minded that they can't post anything remotely intelligent. Keep it up, and you'll be next. I don't tolerate ignorance. Btw, words can't make your eyes bleed. Learn to troll better.
