not feeling good

not feeling good

At the moment i am not feeling good. i feel like my body is in 'run away mode'. i feel my body is running on a high, my head is so mixed up. i have to go to bed and try to sleep, but don't know if i can.

my hormones are everywhere at the moment; my mood is sky high negative. i can't deal with this anymre. all of a sudden i am not feeling good. i think it is anxiety.

i don't know why i feel like this; i just want to cry but can't becsue everyone is home. i am going to bed. i don't know what is going on. actually maybe it is anxiety because i felt like passing out today.

I went to my GP to have my mirena IUD taken out as I had had enough. But he couldn't find the string, so he sent me for a ultrasound. Had that and the guy said i had two fibroids and a cyst on my ovary. but he couldn't find the string either, so had to have an xray to find the metal piece. they didn't tell me anything. but while waiting i was so anxious i almost passed out.

so now i have to wait for tomorrow when my GP will call me at work and let me know what will happen now. hopefully he can take the mirena out. i don't know.

my body is reacting to my anxiety - i feel so shaky, i need to stop. no point telling anyone at home becasue (a) they won't believe me and (b) they prob wouldn't care.

sorry, i had to tell someone. i feel so alone 😞

Hi @Shaz51 @Former-Member @Former-Member @Owlunar @Faith-and-Hope @utopia @CherryBomb @outlander and others who i have forgotten

Yesterday I wasn't very well, not coping mentallyh and physically my back is playing up. By today i felt like crying quite a lot at work but as usual i hid it from my co-workers.

I ended up ringing my clinic to see if my doctor was on but he wasn't but his partner was on so i decided to go and see him. i have seen him twice and he is lovely as well. As soon as i walked in he asked how i was and i said i am not coping mentally, i am not coping with everything is getting on top of me. i told himm i wish i was in hospital again. he asked whats been happening over the past frew weeks? so i told him about my 3 week stay in hospital and then our holisday and then my first week back at work and how hard its been this week going back to work. then i told him about moving and how stressful it is. He decided to call the privater hospital to see if a bed was available as he wanted me to go in asap. But no bed available. they told him he needs to ring on mondya. but i told him my name is on the list.

he said i have two options:

  1. go to the public hospital and be admitted and then transferred to the private hospital that i stayed in
  2. stay home and the CAT team will call me daily to check in on me over the weekend and i will have to go in and see him tomorrow

so i have an appt tomorrow morning and he will chat with me to see if i am okay and not going to hurt myself. he did make sure that i wasn't high risk. i told him that while my family is home with me i wouldn't SH.

he said i need to talk to my husband as he needs to know how i really am.. he said it is far too hard to hide my feelings.

he said it could be the drop in a certain med that has changed my mood considering this has all happened this week.

i am so confused, my head hurts, my blood pressure is high. i told my doctor i don't want to go to work next week, he said that next wednesday, today is friday lets concentrate on today and tonight. we will work through next week, next week.

Hi @Owlunar @Former-Member @utopia and others I have forgotten

This morning i had an appt with my GP. he wanted to check in on me and see how i was travelling. I told him i was the same as last night. He said that he had tried several times to contact the CAT team but no answer so he will keep trying till he gets someone. He asked if anything was making things worse and I told him selling the house, moving, my parents. I told him i am angry really angry and he asked if i could release my anger like going for a walk or exercise. i said no the only way at the moment was to SH. he said no what about if i just went for a walk. i said ok i could do that. i told him that i am so angry with my mum and need to vent out. he asked if i would be ok this weekend or if i need to be admitted in the public hospital. i said i will be okay because hubby is home. i told him that i tend to '[play' two different people in my life. 1. 'the perfect wife and mother who can do no wrong' and 2. 'the broken person/child' that is so heartbroken suffering depression, anxiety that doesn't know who to turn to for help. he said that this must be so difficult for me to keep up with havingn to 'hide' my emotions all the time.

he made me keep my promise to him that i wouldn't SH or worse over the weekend and that if i had serious thoughts then i would need to contact the CAT team or call for an ambulance. he also made me another appt for me to see him on tuesday morning.

i am so glad that i have a very supportive GP.

when i got home my mobile phone rang and it was the CAT team. the lady introduced herself and said the my GP had called her and told her that i was not coping and needed help. she asked lots of questions, mediction i am on, my health, my SH urges, my children my hubby and my work. she wanted to know how strong my urges are. she remembers talking to me once before.

she said she will call me again on monday as i have hubby home tomorrow and i told her i should b e okay. but she said if i am not okay tomorrow or the urges get stronger to pls contact her.

my GP also said that he will contact my psych on Monday to see where i am on the list for hospital admission.

i told my GP that i feel that i went back to work far too soon, but don't have any sick leave or annual leave left. and that my hubby will get angry if i have more time off work. but my GP said its the same if i got sick with appendicitis and needed weeks of work.

there is so much going on at the moment in my life.

i was walking through my garden this morning and crying because i will miss my garden. i know i have a big garden and will go down to a v ery small one. but i will miss the beautiful plans and flowers and palms we had. i really enjoyed potteringn around. i guess i will have to start my neew garden. i can't wait. and i will also have some new indoor plants as well which i can't wait to go and buy.

i am really getting anxious about the move, the more i think about it the more i start to get emotional, and it's hard because hubby doesn't really get it; the kids well they're kids and they don't understand the emotinal attachment i have.

anyway, i am gooing to stay busy knitting myself a scarf with a new ball of wool from lincraft called cakes!!!

hope everyone is doing okay, always thinking of you all

BB 🙂

Re: not feeling good

hello @BlueBay

The wool is one big ball and it is all different shades of greens from dark to lime.--- wow that will look great when it is finished xx

I remember when i was little and i would not put my toys away , mum got the broom and swept them out the door -- but you boys are not young anymore

In response to: Re: not feeling good

Re: not feeling good

The wool is one big ball and it is all different shades of greens from dark to lime. It only cost $10 and you only need one ball to knit a scarf. It even comes with a free pattern for the scarf and even a beanie. I may even try the beanie, I'll see.

You know right now i am so damn angry at my boys/ They are both so inconsiderate little shits. i ask them to help me with something reg.faulty phone and do you think they helped me - NO. The little so and so!!!

Then my mind went into - well imagine if i wasn't here anymore what would they say? they make me so angry, they never help me - YET i do there washing, i fold their clothes. I DO NOT iron their clothes they do their own.

I sometimes wonder what they would do if i have seriously SH and even more serious (yoiu know) what would they say then -

They have clothes in the lounge room that have been there for ages, and do you think they will pick them up. i have asked and asked. so tonight i am going to put them in a garbage bag and put them downstairs in the garage - see if they care then.

i am so over being treated like a piece of shit, like i am a nothing. i cannot wait for them to move out. as much as i still love them i really can't wait for them to move out.

i am angry,

i want my dad and if i can't have him now well then there is only one answer .........
