Recently I was starting to beat my anxiety and really challenge all those negative thoughts. I felt really positive and that I could do it.
Two weeks ago though, I woke up and felt the worst I've ever felt - not anxious, but really, really low. I spent 3 days crying for hours and sleeping during the times when I wasn't crying. I took the week off work and felt a little better by the end of the week, but still very sad inside, almost like it hurt.
I went to the doctor's on Monday and he said it sounds like depression, but to give it another week to see if it lifts and signed me off work for a week. This week I haven't cried as much, but have no energy, and still feel quite sad a lot of the time. I'm sleeping a lot and struggling to do stuff. My anxiety has also got a lot worse and I'm finding everything really hard.
I know there's nothing anyone can say really, and if I'm still bad next week I have to go back to the doctor's, but I'm just really disappointed that when I felt I was moving forwards I've gone a million miles backwards.
