Why do I feel so unwell even without a cold or any medical issues?

[Meyer_Gdmnx]

I keep trying to find the anxiety Symptoms that describe best how I’m feeling but I simply can’t which makes me question what’s wrong with me? I understand anxiety manifests itself in many different forms but I just don’t know how to deal with feeling this way. My stomach feels empty yet bloated I’ve felt nauseous on and off for a few days. My heads been light and I’ve been in constant fear of being sick/having a fever I try my best to think logically but it doesn’t work. Additionally I really don’t sleep altogether that well because I always feel like something is wrong. As well as my irrational contamination fear whenever I touch any food with my hands. I’ve tried lots of things do get passed this kind of stuff but it just makes me feel like I’m completely and utterly not myself not well mentally or physically and never will be.

I also often think irrational things will bring me bad luck and never ever feel comfortable or relaxed I just am lost about what do at this point as I’m too afraid to try any medication

I believe you prob have some depression going on if u don’t want to take meds def seeing a therapist will help a lot you need to train your mind as if it were brand new. The mind is very powerful and only you have control over that you just need the tools to show you how a counselor can provide that. How do I know this? Because I’m there now I have this incredible fear of thinking I’m going to die or something is wrong with me, because I have so many symptoms. I have been to the mayo clinic I have been to every docto. I do have a few things wrong which may contribute to the depression because I’m afraid of it, but then there are other things that I do that really tell me that I’m depressed like my weird eating habits, I like to eat healthy and I try but then I get on these kicks that I’m afraid to eat anything because it’s bad for me or I have lots of pain or someone around me is going to die! I finally took myself to a therapist I am in the middle of therapy only third session in and I do take meds I’ve been on meds For 20 years. In the middle of switching (terrible) but the mind is a powerful thing train it to do what you want it to do, Stay positive!

Thank you for your reply I really found it helpful and insightful I just feel sick hot and generally unwell I’ve been to a number of therapists they all have prescribed the same meds that I haven’t taken it was only a very small dose of like the lowest anti depressants but still I was to afraid. I just really don’t know how to train my brain to deal with feeeling bad

It’s definitely not easy that’s y u see a therapist they teach u how to cope I have the sense of being sick all the time I know how u feel. Maybe u should try to take 1 of the meds but it does take a while to kick in
