hi, i just stumbled upon this website and allready it has been a help because i now know that alot of people feel like i do.
anyway back to what i am here for
I've been unemployed for about 3 years because of fear of working. i have tried to get jobs but i never go through with the interviews because im too scared. When i quit my first job (which was after 3 weeks of starting) i went to see someone about my fear of working. i got to see a counselor for about 6 months. When seeing her she helped me alot and also said i should take fluoxetine because at the time i was also trying to deal with my dads death which happened when i was 7 but only hit me then (i was 18).
After being with her for 6 months i felt alot better about myself and the death of my dad so she said it was time to stop seeing her and i came off of the tablets about 3 months after.
i never had a job up untill one month ago and i have become to feel the same again, i am so nervious the night and morning before i go to work, i get headaches mostly all the time and i feel sick and can only manage to eat one little meal a day because i feel sick. i also cant concentrate in work when i am getting told how to do things and in the nights when i go to bed i have trouble breathing and i am tired all the time but i asume thats because i have been doing nothing for the past couple of years.
my girlfriend also tells me that my moods are changing all the time like sometimes i am really down then i am happy (which i have been told that my dad was like that). i also get irritated by the tinyest things now and i dont want to do anything that i normally do like see friends or play guitar/video games.
sorry for this big wall of text and i hope someone will read it and just give me some advice and help
thank you
