Hi all,
Have avoided joining a forum like this for a long time, as I felt like my anxiety is of my own making. Decided to give it a go though to see if any feels the same way as me.
Firstly, I've had a bit of a nightmare 6 months or so, as my dad passed away last August (alcoholism and depression finally did it for him). I discovered his body and feel like I should have done much more for him. I can now understand his downward spiral.
I worry about things continually and lately it has got to the point that I don't feel I can function daily. I feel like eventually something bad is going to happen and that it is pointless making an effort at work or in relationships. When I am at work, I just want to be on my own at home.
I have a doctors appointment in the morning, I am hoping that they can help. Just wondering how I am going to articulate this all to the doctor. I feel so scared to open up, as if they will say I am talking rubbish. I just want to be relaxed, I'm always on edge, worried about what people think of me. Feels a lot of the time like people are trying to sabotage my life (that sounds stupid I know).
Anyway, not sure if anyone can identify, but hello anyway!
Thanks!
