I took a Xanax about 20 minutes ago, hasn't really kicked in yet. I was up at 6am because of the interview. Will be leaving for the interview in about 10 minutes.
Later:
I did have another panic surge during the interview but I recognized it immediately and the recognition let me control it well. I thought I gave a good interview. They will be interviewing more people next week so it might be two weeks before I hear. The job is a single site, so no traveling around, and it's internal facing, both of these things are positives for me from an anxiety standpoint. Also it will be basically all stuff I've done in previous jobs, so good from that standpoint as well as it won't be new stuff all the time. So I think this is something I would overall be able to be successful doing with my anxiety.
My other good thing is I reached a long term goal today, I walked to the end of my street and back. This is about a mile of walking according to google mapping. Last time I'd tried this I had a panic attack. I hadn't gone this far all year.
