First time posting

MRG — Wed, 26 Nov 2025 06:34:19 GMT

Hi I’m an older male, and have been feeling anxious, and not sleeping well.

I have been prescribed medication to take. My Gp said it would ease my feelings after a couple of weeks. This was about 3 weeks ago. I have taken only 3 tablets and I think I’m fine. But clearly I’m not. I feel a bit anxious to go to work. I start quite early in the morning for my job. Finding it hard to unwind, and feel myself.
I just wanted to know if I should see a psychologist to make sure, I’m on the right track.
Thanks.

Hi MRG,

Welcome to the forum.

Cant talk much a out the medication due to, well not being allowed to here haha, and not knowing what you are taking.

Well and truly worth talking to someone, especially because if you talk to you GP you can get free, or discounted, appointments via a mental health plan.

Wishing you the absolute best
