Hi
New to this forum, so please bear with me if I'm reposting.
Brief history... 7 years of steroid use/abuse. Finally came off at Christmas last year (nearly 12 months ago)... Blood levels wise, I am now fully recovered, all my results came back as average (slightly high test level, but i exercise a lot so not too worried)..
Anyway, over the past 4 months I've been constantly thinking I'm going to die. Every meal I eat I worry will be my last, every bout of exercise etc... every bit of heartburn i feel as though it's a heart attack. It's to the point now where it's stopping me sleeping and I'm starting to feel depressed all the time.
I am too embarrassed to go to my Docs about it, as I was always brought up that the man was the 'man' and we were never to admit to weaknesses.. I am also too worried that I might be put on long term medication which could shorten my life, change my blood levels, etc...
Has anybody dealt with anything similar, and is there any help I can get without taking pills?
Sorry for sounding so stupid, but am at the point now where it's becoming to ruin my life...
Cheers
