Don't know how to explain how I feel

Mel2309 — Mon, 13 Apr 2015 07:40:58 GMT

I don't quite know whats going on lately, so often I feel completely exhausted as soon as I wake and so irritable over the silliest things, although valerian helps a bit with that

occasionlly I have mild anxiety nothing too severe I can carry on and get past it but I have this overwhelming feeling about everything coming up, a holiday, my wedding and honeymoon

even this morning thinking about dinner was too much

any advice on who to see and what to do? I've tried talking to GPs but I find the language barrier hard at times

Ask for a health plan and referral to a Physiologist/councillor (depending on where you live maybe) if you have a health plan you can qualify for a number of free appointments. Regardless of the cost though talking to someone unbiased may help. You have to find a Physiologist that you feel comfortable with and don't be embarrassed to change or even change doctors for that matter. I have found some nice distractions like a new hobby (candle making for me) has helped even if its for a short period! I like to write down all my worries and questions to take with me to all appointments as I often forget things or don't describe how bad it actually is.

Kind regards
