It's all so quiet...

It's been really dead in here the last few days. Wish more people would chat and say hello.

I haven't slept properly in 4 days, thought tonight I would sleep well as I was so tired earlier but usual I lay down in my back and got the worst heart flutters that made me sit up and change position, now the adrenaline surge has ensured I'm wide awake. Took more of that natural calm stuff earlier, wondering if it's that or just me panicking for no reason. Last few days are the worst I've felt since my anxiety started, I've had stabbing pains, muscles cramps, heart flutters, you name it. I don't know what I'm doing so wrong that I'm having all these symptoms all at once...I feel like all I do is come on here and moan but I really have no place else to do it, my friends are good with me but I don't speak about how I'm feeling as they just don't get it, I have to pretend to my parents I'm fine as they have said that "I need to buck up and get on with things" I'd do anything to feel fine again. I haven't seen my CBT lady in 4 weeks, thought she would have at least emailed me but not a thing so I emailed her today to ask if I could have an appointment to go see her but she never got back to me.

I'm gibbering on and on but really just wanted to try and empty my mind to see if that would help me feel tired.

Still don't. ;-(

Still taking natural calm but don't feel much different. Not slept again and I am working today. I don't know how long you can go without sleep without it affecting your physical and mental health. Hope you have a better day. Every day I think things will improve. Speak to you later

Hi Holly.

Think I'm not going to take anymore, it's not made me calm in the slightest, if anything it's made me feel worse. Could be coincidence but it's been enough to put me off lol.

I'm off to work as well and I feel like a zombie.

Hope you have a good day.

Hi you sound like me I feel I just come on here to moan. But if other people are in the same situation as us it does help so feel free to moan most of us like to get it off are mind x

[Hidden in reply to scoobyd]

That is very true.

I'm just growing sick of feeling like this, I just don't see an end in sight. I've had enough xx

Hey, for the past 3-4 weeks I haven't slept properly either, I sleep for about 5 hours max but the funny thing is I don't feel massively tired but I am off work at the moment so i'm probably not tiring myself out enough. It's really good you are still going to work, I have been off for 3 weeks and now i'm dreading going back but I have just got to face it I think and hopefully all the negative thoughts will go away a bit. It's a shame that you don't have people you can talk to, but I guess its good you can come on here to vent and have people who understand you... x

I feel tired but I can't sleep. I watch more crap on tv on the middle of the night. The only way I can sleep is to double the dose of nytol and then I feel spaced out in the morning. Can't win. Hope the rest of you have a good night. Just bought father ted box set so I might watch that tonight
