I have been spending a lot of time studying, I can feel so much burden in my course, I don't feel like I should take any rest since I may fall behind. My situation get worse as day pass, I feel so anxious and panic whenever I started watching lecture videos or revising, I feel like I'm a bit scared of seeing stuff related to my course, I can still feel unhappy even spending time hanging out with friends. I am so severely affected by my mental health and emotion, I have no idea what should I do to cheer myself up, I have lost interest in most of the things and it is somehow affecting my physical health as well. I am an international students new to Australia and have no clue where to seek help. All I want is to stay positive, happy and relax which I knew I have to, but I just can't make any difference. Please help me and give me some advise. Wish everyone can stay HAPPY all the time <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:">🙂</span> Thu, 10 Mar 2022 05:31:57 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/what-mental-health-issue-am-i-suffering/m-p/16770#M2751 Ianna 2022-03-10T05:31:57Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/what-mental-health-issue-am-i-suffering/m-p/16771#M2752 <P>Hello Dear Ianna,</P> <P>A very warm and caring welcome to the forums..</P> <P>It sounds like your going through a lot right now, and I’m so sorry your feeling like you do...</P> <P>We are unable to give you any diagnosis as we are not Doctors or professionals, we are people that have our own mental health struggles with a bit of insight that we might be able to help support you...</P> <P>I think coming here and reaching out for help is a good step forward..for peer support and help....Do you have a social worker at the a University you are attending...maybe having a chat with them might be of some help for you...or maybe if you feel up to it..you could make a long appointment with your Dr. and talk honestly and openly about your thoughts and how you’ve been feeling...You’re Dr, would be likely be able to give you a diagnosis and if needed, would then make arrangements for you to get put on a mental health care plan...Which gives you 10 or 12 free sessions with a psychologist...</P> <P>I hope in some way I’ve helped to put you on the right path for you to get some professional help for your mental health...</P> <P>Please keep us updated on how your feeling..</P> <P>My kind thoughts with my care Dear Ianna,</P> <P>Grandy..</P> <P> </P> Thu, 10 Mar 2022 10:16:21 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/what-mental-health-issue-am-i-suffering/m-p/16771#M2752 Ggrand 2022-03-10T10:16:21Z
