Going insane feeling

Help I woke with a pressure pain in my head,and started to feel I had no control over my thoughts ,the more I tried to chill the more I started to panic.

Started feeling trapped ,felt sick ,felt hot and only thing I could think was this was only going to go away if I died ,and I would rather die than feel like this .

Couldn't stay still always felt overwhelmed with the thoughts ,like a part of my brain knowing away at me.

Went to out of hours and they gave me diazepam -tjis helped me sleep and rest ,but it all just started next day .

So had to go back and they gave me propanol..

This is my 3rd day and just want someone to reassure me it's not just me on the planet that feels like this and that I can turn it around .

Any copping mechanism s I can use .?

I have had a ear infections for 6 month and think all the stress caused by that has finally took its toll,bit my brain won't seem to listen to that explanation-help

Are you being treated for the ear infection. Also guided meditation s can possibly help with calming you.

Hey Lomond. I had the uncontrollable thoughts sensation when I tried Lexapro - it was awful. It did pass and I abandoned Lexapro. I'm on Zoloft now and it hasn't happened. Are you medicated? Either way, yes - since you've been checked by a doctor you're safe and the mind will settle.
