Thinking I might have depression?...

[shay1988]

Been feeling really down lately! Not sure why! Just a overall feeling of dread and not really giving a crap about anything! And it's making my anxiety worse also. Always thinking my health is bad! I've never really dealt with depression before but now I'm wondering if I do suffer with it as well. I just don't wanna do anything! Don't feel like moving or going anywhere! All I do is sit around and that just makes me think about bad things more. I just feel so down and out of it. It's hard to explain the feeling. Just like what's the point of going on. Maybe because I don't feel good and my anxiety is back? And that's causing these feelings. Idk I just hate feeling this way. I think I need a counselor

Hopefully it’s just a dip in the anxiety. I know when I was given an ssri that had an adverse effect, it sent me to depression and had similar symptoms as you explain. Though when my anxiety is bad I don’t want to do anything either. I know I’m not making any sense, but these symptoms suck sometimes. I wouldn’t deal with depression for more than 2 weeks, which was about the time I went through it when I was mis medicated- pure hell.

I think we all go through that feeling of dread sometimes. Hopefully it won't last long. Just take it easy and try to rest and maybe find something little to do every day to lift your spirits. I went through depression that lasted 2 1/2 years. It was terrible. I don't know how I got through it. Maybe try to get outside a little on nice days and maybe talking to a counselor would help.

I try to go outside on nice days I've been riding my motorcycle some as well. That's the only time I feel ok is when I'm riding. But if I just go out and walk around I start feeling weird and I'll come back inside! I've been really dizzy the last week or so as well. With some headaches. As well as heart palpitations. I Kno it's more then likely anxiety. I haven't been as down as usual but my anxiety is sky high. I hate it

I can see how riding would be good. I used to ride dirt bikes as a kid, so much fun.
these days I just walk until my legs are done.

 

[shay1988]

Yeah I use to race dirt bikes when I was younger. Then my husband got my into motorcycles. My biggest problem here lately has been dizziness. I feel dizzy allot. And it makes me panic of course. I haven't wanted to anything this week.

Hhhmmm, unfortunately you might should go to your gp. My uncle had this type dizziness or vertigo. He was out on a mild medication which resolved the issue.

How are you doing today @shay1988 ?

I've had a fluid ear issue lately, nothing serious just a lot of popping in my ears, it's like a bl**dy geiger counter some days...

Hello, thank you for asking. I'm ok for now little weird feeling. I've been kinda dizzy lately and heart racing also been having panic attacks every time I drive. Been a little hard lately

When I was in a bad swing, I reached out to some friends and chatted on the phone, the sounds of familiar voices helped me out a lot

I'm coming back to this thread because this is exactly where I started my own search when I was in a dark place. I didn’t know who to listen to, where to go, or what to do. Eventually, I turned to a treatment center here in Georgia called Fairland Recovery Center after learning that they offer support for mental health, not just addiction.

I’m not saying everything is perfect now, but it meant so much to feel like I wasn’t being judged and that someone was actually listening. If anyone reading this finds themselves in a similar place, just know there are solutions. Even when it feels like there’s nothing left to try, there is.
