Anyone ever taken muscle relaxers? I suffer from some types of chronic pain and restless legs and the the most effective things I have been prescribed were some strong forms of anti depressants. Only issue it the side effects were brutal. I want to maybe look into muscle relaxers but I don’t know much about them and if they too can have intense side effects.

How do you deal with irrational anxiety whenever your boss is saying “hey let’s schedule 1:1, I’ve got a few things to discuss”? I’ve never had a bad performance rating before, quite the opposite I have received positive feedback. I also know 99% of the time this meeting is harmless and my anxiety has been proven wrong many times. But I’m still always on edge whenever this kind of meeting is scheduled. 😩

Also, yes I do go to therapy and have discussed this issue, but it hasn’t helped

I’m wondering if I’m overreacting, or she’s purposefully trying to just get paid more
