I feel so overwhelmed and guilty

I have been doing so well for a couple of years on my old medication and now suddenly I am so much worse again.
I feel jittery about little things, my mind is going crazy from just thinking if I have to do some housework and my mind gets overwhelmed that I get physically sick.
This morning I had to call in sick again and usually I was able to push myself to just one sick day a month! I feel physically week and run down, just no energy to do anything but lie in bed, but have to push myself today to go and get my new medication...
I am so angry at myself, nobody will put up with this for long and I am trying to do the right thing but feel more and more frustrated with things around me.
If I leave out something in housework or to do, it all piles up and making me more and more overwhelmed

I'm feeling so alone in this, I can't talk to anyone at the moment about these things since I spent so much last time talking to my psychologist and psychiatrist this month, plus my medication now is so expensive!

Hi Jess,
I don't have much to add, so I hope someone more knowledgeable than me comes by but I just wanted to say don't be too hard on yourself for calling in sick. It might not be ideal but we are only human and if we can't work we can't work.
Take care of your self
