Feeling overwhelmed

4 Replies

I'm feeling so overwhelmed these days, I can't cope anymore. Because of being so stressed I have insomnia accompanied by nightmares and panic attacks in the middle of the night. As it all feels way too much for me to handle I start to wish to not exist anymore. I don't think I really wanna die but I feel I just can't do it anymore... What does one do in a situation like this??

I've been feeling the same way. I fluctuate between feeling like maybe i ticked one thing off my list to overwhelmed, depressed, and exhausted. I've been swinging between self loathing and hating others for being happy. Usually, while stressed in general, it's not this bad, but just staged my bed all weekend

I know exactly how you feel, I just feel like I can't cope. I wake up after four or five hours of sleep with heart palpitations and racing thoughts. I don't have an answer, I've been on so many meds with limited results. Wish I could make you feel better.

Good luck. I know others here will have some good sound advice. And there is hope.

I've been there. I try to keep a positive mentality about it. If today is a bad day, I hope tomorrow will be better. Not everyone deals with stress the same way. Find something to help you cope. I try to go for a jog, or even watching a comedy show can help me. These days, I have been coming here a lot and that helps, too.

My first question to you if do you have help - ie. A trusted Doctor, a Psychiatrist I have been suffering for years, my Dr, tried to help me, then I woke up to I needed a Psychiatrist, but be careful some are better than others I got lucky with my first choice, wish I still had him, that was in Calif. then I move to SC, not too sure about the one I have now. So do like you do when you shop - shop around. I wish you luck. Sending Love & peace Sprinkle 1
