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

That sounds like you've had a lovely day @BlueBay, and lucky you only working two days - it's like a mini holiday! Do you have any plans for the Easter long-weekend?

Re: not feeling good

Hi @Ali11 no holiday plans for Easter. I’m just going to relax by the beach. And enjoy my little granddaughter. The weather forecast looks like high 20’s so it will be nice.

Having my parents and all kids home for Easter lunch. Including A my granddaughter. I’m looking forward to this as I haven’t spent Easter with my parents for more than 10 years. (Now I’m teary 😢)

so it should be a nice day

Re: not feeling good

Hi @BlueBay

@Ali11 I have been meaning to ask you since I first spotted you early last week. What qualifications do the community builders have? For example do you have a MH professional background or specific lived experience? Sorry for asking, or if I am asking something which has been explained elsewhere. Just curious.

Sherry 😀💜

Re: not feeling good

Hey @Former-Member, no problems at all! Community Builders are focused on responding and engaging with posts, rather than moderating so the position doesn't need any clinical background. Hope this helps! I've noticed your label says senior contributor, how long have you been on the SANE Forums?

Content/trigger warning

@Ali11 I have been around since September 2016. Though have had some breaks in that time.

So how do you get to be a Community Builder? Are you a volunteer, or employed?

And okay, you dont need a clinical background, but you must have personal experience or an interest in MH. Otherwise you would not be here. So where does your own specific experience or interest fall?
