Hi folks. I am off and on here periodically for support and I'm back again.
My problem is over reacting to life's upsets and blowing things totally out of proportion. I'm not like this all the time, but every so often, something will happen, usually something that I have no control over the outcome, and I wind myself up into a state when I really want to just put it to one side unti it is resolved. But my brain won't let me and the problem goes round and round in there.
I don't really have anyone in real life to talk to. I have lots of friends and a small family but I can't bring myself to admit to them just how much I am suffering when I am in the throes of worrying about whatever issue it is at the time. I am ashamed as I think they will look upon it as being trivial and not worth getting into such a state about. They are right.
So, considering that I am not constantly like this, where do I turn. I'm not keen on meds and tried telephone cbt and didn't engage. Maybe it's time to try again.
I guess I really just want contact with others who are the same and understand the way I am.
