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 😞

Re: not feeling good

My psych has brought it up @Faith-and-Hope. Trouble is I can't go it because of work. My psychologist works on bits of DBT which is a start.
I need to learn how to regulate my emotions because at the moment there everywhere and also decision making. I need to learn to not rely on my support people. He told me yesterday he will admit me agsin in 3 months time but it's a bargain only if I try to put in place what I need to do ie. making my own decisions and controlling my emotions and Sh intensity. I need to show him I can do these things. He also contacted the CAT team to let them know I'm being discharged today and I may need their support. I know he is trying to help me. He puts boundaries but their for my own good.

Re: not feeling good

Hugs @BlueBay - im sorry to hear how hard things are but glad that you are home too. It sounds like your psych is really interested in helping you to achieve the long term goals that will help you to find some peace and happiness in life, not just offering bandaid solutions for the present moment. But i can imagine how hard it is too because its so much work to manage it all and work through the boundaries too. I think you show so much determination and courage in continuing to work at it all. I hope your day at work goes ok tomorrow. take care of you

Re: not feeling good

My doctor called and wants to see me tonight. I am so tired. Got no energy at all. I slept for 2 hrs this afternoon and could stay in bed. Don't want to do anything but stay in bed. We'll see what the doctor says. I'm just so tired and no energy. Can't stop yawning.
Wander if it's the chest infection not completely gone.

Re: not feeling good

I went to my doctor last night. He checked me out my blood pressure was ok. He said blood pressure can go up and down during the day. He said my chest was ok. It said my fatigue is from the virus I had and it should be pick but can't say how long it will take.
Today I feel so tired I have no energy I feel like it's a real effort to move.

Re: not feeling good

I was feeling like that a few weeks ago @BlueBay, and along with some other symptoms, I was diagnosed with post-viral fatigue ......

Rest up and get over it properly so it doesn’t set in as a longer term thing Hon. I am sure that is what the Dr suggested, but I want to underscore it, having been there with scarier symptoms.

Re: not feeling good

Hi @Faith-and-Hope
Oh I'm feeling so crap. Went to bed this afternoon. Called my doctor but he wasn't there. I feel worse than yesterday. The doctor I spoke to suggested I ring tomorrow morning and speak to my doctor. I feel my arms and legs are on slow go. If that makes sense.
