Re: A new start (kind of)

I actually agree with @Meowmy here @Flying_Hams It might be time to see your doctor again. It may be that your present meds are not working the same way anymore - we can build up a resistance to meds. I was in a similar situation where I seemed to gradually go backwards until I felt I was right back at square one again. After changing one of my meds my mood gradually began to improve. It took time and several really tough weeks but it did make a difference. It is at least worth a conversation with your GP.

Re: A new start (kind of)

True @Meowmy @Zoe7

Thanks @outlander me too hey..

Idk if meds will change it though. Plus I am sick of medicine for mental health. But maybe I will see the doc soon. I need to get tests to check up my general health too. Maybe it could be auto immune.

Re: A new start (kind of)

Sounds like a plan @Flying_Hams It could be many things so getting a general check up could be a good idea. Often physical ailments can affect our mental health also so getting everything checked out sounds like a wise move.

Re: A new start (kind of)

Yeah @Zoe7

This is the worst I have been for a while

Re: A new start (kind of)

Yeah @Flying_Hams It is so hard when we begin that slide and feel powerless to stop it. Hearing you buddy Smiley Sad

Re: A new start (kind of)

Not good @Flying_Hams , not good my friend. All my symptoms r out of control. In hospital for last 2.5 weeks have got steadily worse in that time. Discharging me Tuesday even tho I'm an absolute mess and can't function. No meds helping. Went in to hospital to get off short term anxiety meds, which they/wev done, but my symptoms r completely uncontrolled and yet they r discharging me. It's like theyv done what they needed to do, now I get kicked to the curb regardless of how out of control my symptoms r. It's not just the anxiety, which is closer to panic a lot of the time, it's a whole heap of other symptoms - too much to list here - but they are torturous and never let up. For example sleep - got 2 hours last night, a little more the night before that but basically not sleeping and they're not particularly phased which I find very surprising. They just don't seem to get it. It's very frustrating to say the least. I cld say so much more but won't rabbit on nemore. Suffice to say that I am going thru torture with out of control symptoms that they don't seem too b phased about. Meanwhile I'm living thru torture!

Re: A new start (kind of)
