Hi,
As people are aware, I have been so positive for a while now and have been really working on my Anxiety and Depression. My medication was upped last week and although it did knock me the first night I took it, I am now having these intense feelings of low mood and a panicky feeling that I am trapped and can't escape from it. I don't yet know if this is actually due to the medication, but my mood is just low since Saturday now and it is continuing to get lower. I am really trying to keep positive here and keep telling myself that things are going to be fine, but then the overwhelming feelings wash right over me and I feel helpless and back at square one. Right now I feel depressed and the negative feeling I am getting is that I am back to square one and I have nothing to look forward too. It's like I have sailed through the past two days feeling hopeless. There are those few moments where I see light at the end of the tunnel, but the negativity always conquers that and I end up feeling lousy again. I don't want to go to my GP because I have bothered him enough. I have already been there again on Saturday because I was suffering headaches. I don't want to go booking another appointment today and bothering him even more, but this just isn't lifting. Right now the low mood is actually worse than the anxiety and I just feel like I have taken two steps forward and ten steps back.
