Hi everyone,
This is my first post on this forum (Ill pop and introduce myself properly in a while :) ) and Im a little unsure of what to say really.
I've always been an emotional person so I guess thats why I have put off seeking advise for so long as Ive always told myself that Im just being an emotional wreck!
Basically a couple of years ago I went through a very nasty relationship breakdown which resulted in my house being repossed and animals being rehomed and to rub salt into an already sore wound I got made redundant from my job at the same time. I went through the usual emotions at the time, anger,hurt more anger but on the whole thought I dealt pretty well with it all.
I moved from my home town in the Midlands,England up to the highlands of Scotland and things have been pretty much a roller coaster of a ride since, I am moving back down to my home town this sunday coming.
Some days Im fine, my usual cheery self, other days I just want to lock myself away from every human being I know and just be alone.Im having awful trouble getting to sleep at night and even I get a full nights sleep I never wake up feeling refreshed and always feel ready for nap a couple of hours after waking. Some days I find my self crying at nothing and no matter how hard I try I cant stop myself, on days like that its an impossible tak for me concentrate fully on my job, I often find myself crying in my screening room trying to "sort myself out" before my next patient arrives.
This past week has been extremely difficult, I have just been putting this down to the up and coming move back to my home town, but today I have had what I think may have been a panic attack. I was sat at work and started getting heart palpitations a racing pulse and breathless and I really did feel like I was having a nervous breakdown,the breathlessness and palpitations passed with in about 20 mins but I have been left with a strong feeling of unease all day coupled with a migraine that no amount of Rizatriptan (my usual medication that I use for my migraines) seems to be shifting.
I really would be greatful for any advise any of you have to offer.As soon as Im registered at a Doctors back home Ill be making an appointment,but just wanted to be reassured until then that Im not going crazy!
I do find it difficult to talk about these things, very difficult infact so Im sorry if this post seems a little rushed and vague,Im just really not sure what to say or how to put my feelings down properly.
Thanks in advance for your replies.
