I feel
constantly drained of energy and
really struggling to get through the
day. It makes my anxiety worse
because I have this fear I'll just
collapse or shut down completely.
It feels very much like I will
collapse. I feel like I don't have the
energy to stand or to think. When I
do try to think (when I work hard at
work) I often get very dizzy and the
room starts spinning. My muscles
are also very weak and they shake
when I try to use them. I've been to
the docs because a nurse told me
to have my thyroid tested. He
doesn't think it's thyroid but I had a
fasting blood test today because
he wanted to check for diabetes.
I've been tested for diabetes
regularly over the last 12 years
because every doctor I see wants
to double check! So I very much
doubt there's anything wrong with
me. Do other people get the weak/
collapsing feeling and how do you
make it better? It's with me all day
long every day and I feel like I
don't trust my body to be strong
and robust and young anymore
(I'm 25), because I feel so frail and
I'm scared of 'pushing myself', by
exercising or doing much at all....I
feel like I might be making it worse
by trying to stay safe and just rest
all the time though?
