Can anybody tell me what this is?

Hi guys I’m 21 and I have been off work for 10 months with health anxiety and GAD although recently over the past couple of months I’ve have been feeling like I’m not a normal functioning day to day person ya know? I feel like I’m not tuned into life like I’m not with it all the time? Does anyone have any ideas what this could be? My parents say it’s because since I left work I’ve not managed to hold down a routine at all. And have a bad sleep pattern which I am begging to improve any on the name of this though?

Depression? When the things you do no longer make you happy, when you sleep a lot.

Or Mayb you are a person who needs to keep busy. Maybe that's taking a toll?

Thank you for your reply my therapist has talked about situational depression saying that once my circumstances change I’ll feel better not that it’s anything clinical

I hope you get well quickly. It's tough I know.

I'm glad you are seeing someone.

I feel the same way, I have GAD and health anxiety as well. I don’t feel like I’m in the present and I believe it’s because of the constant worry. If I’m able to have a good day full of distractions I feel like my normal self. Usually when I get out of the house I feel better but once I return I feel like I’m back in that dark space.

Not what you're looking for?
