I'm just sat in doctors now I'm in tears I can't stop crying when I awake or I'm in a really mad mood and I feel agahited for no reason and I don't know what to do anything just want to hide in bed so I feel so bad I'm actually so scared right now I've only felt like once before and it's was the darkest moths of my life I just can't go back there it's so hard to get out of.. i can't think of any thing jess I just have headaches all the time.. I'm really stressed about finding a new house there's that but nothing else... is there any tips guys I could do to.. to get out of this x Hi Heidi. This isn't revelatory, but when I'm depressed it's critical that I maintain my routine. That means seeing my friends, eating well, meditating, and strolling in the sunshine. As I'm sure you're aware, these are the times to dig in and retain as much normality as possible. Oh, and talking. Expressing how we're feeling is our most potent weapon when feeling unwell.

taurean Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Many or us have been in that position - I was there earlier this year - but I with help from here got back out of it. Stress and anxiety cause us to feel ill and then depression kicks in as a consequence. You are scared too which is no doubt adding to the distress and maintains a vicious circle of distress. When I broke the looping thoughts, the anxiety eased, the headaches eased I started to feel better and the depression eased away . Link to comment

lostinme Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Hi snow it's saddens me to hear your feeling so depressed, but the worse thing you can do is hide yourself away and go to bed in the long run it will make you feel even worse. Both OceanDweller and Roy have given you some great advice, it also helps me if i can maintain a good healthy diet and plenty of rest in between my daily routines and also plenty of early nights tends to help also. Thinking of you lost xx Link to comment

That is so. I was doing that when I was bad but Caramoole got me out of it for exactly the reason lost states. Try and achieve something each day, something you can feel proud of. It will give you a lift and show you that you can. Then aim to extend that, with perhaps a little reward from the fridge or freezer! Edited May 2, 2017 by taurean Link to comment

taurean Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 I was hoping for this result from seeing the doctor - glad you felt able to open up to her, and have gained some release. That's understood re the treats, but going out for a walk with the dog was hopefully pleasurable. Sleep well and see what you can achieve tomorrow Roy x Link to comment

taurean Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 (edited) Hoping for better for you today my friend. House sales and purchases are very stressful, as I well know, and stress is a well-known trigger for OCD. Therefore looking to ease stress, maybe reframe things and seek to turn the pressure and anxiety down, will reduce the stress, and help handle the OCD. Thinking of you.
