I know that is not a question anyone can answer but I needed to write it down. I am having CBT, taking time off work as needed, on medication (went from 2.5mg to 10mg over last few weeks, waiting for it to kick in!) doing relaxation everyday.
How long can I go on like this? it feels unreal, everything has fallen apart so quickly. It has been 2 months today that I started getting the symptoms again after years with nothing.
I think a new, more challenging, job has triggered it and now I am stuck in a cycle of feeling dreadful. I think I am getting side effects from the increase (I was on such a low dose I might as well have been on none) which have meant I have to be off sick which puts us under strain in case I lose my job over this.
Maybe I should just go on long term sick until the meds have taken effect?
Also finding it difficult to eat and feel sick a lot. Felt very weak today and tired and like I might faint. Is that the meds or what?
I have so many questions no one can answer and I feel like I have lost my life. :weep:
When will I get it back? Plus I feel so bad about the strain it is putting on my partner.
Sorry to rant but needed to get it out there.
