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

Hi @Zoe7 @Faith-and-Hope @Former-Member @Shaz51
Party is over!!! I'm driving home and I'm so glad it's over. Don't have to see him anymore. I said hello. He asked where I work and then goodbye. I couldn't look at him.
I did take s med before I got in there. It was nice to see my niece and nephews.
I'm still feeling exhausted with chest tightness and pain in my shoulder and neck. I'll go to my doctor on Monday.
I'm sleeping tomorrow as much as poss. My body needs it.

Re: not feeling good

So well done @BlueBay .....you’ve done it ..... and your boys will be proud of you too ..... ❣️

I hope your neck and shoulder settle down with a full rest day tomorrow Hon ..... and yes, now you can put him behind you. I hope he feels guilty, but whether he does or doesn’t his his problem, not yours.

You have done your bit for your sister, and your nephews and neices, and your own kids .....

WTG ❤️

Re: not feeling good

But I feel so sick @Faith-and-Hope. Ii don't know how to feel. Physical sickness or mental health or both. I'm so exhausted. I feel like crying but can't because the boys are in the car.

Re: not feeling good

Have a nice hot shower when you get home @BlueBay .... and a calming cup of chamomile tea or something .... the pent-up anxiety will be giving you stress-sickness.

Well done @BlueBay - i hope that you are able to relax a little tomorrow and that your body relaxes as well, and i hope that in amongst everything you will feel proud of yourself a little as well.

I had the worst sleep ever. Nightmares and pain. Fast heart rate beating waking me up. Waking up every few hours. I now feel even more exhausted. Just got up and made a cuppa and a bit of toast and I'll go back to bed. I think my body is not coping and is all over the place including my mental health.
Right now I feel like taking some extra sleeping meds but that would be bad wouldn't it?
I just need sleep 😴

Re: not feeling good

Hearing you @BlueBay ...... 💕

I am heading off to church now, but keep all your self-care strategies going ..... hot shower, cup of tea, gentle music playing, a movie on in the background, soft and cuddly jammies and dressing gown ,,...

If nothing is working and you are feeling really overwhelmed, then try the Helpcentre, or CATT team if you’re really worried about yourself.

I will look for you when I am back home....

Hugs Hon.
