i've decided to come clean and not hide

after my anxiety disorder getting increasingly worse and effecting work and uni and home life, i've decided to let people know the extent to my problem. this is a big deal for me as its something i've hidden for years. my doctor has signed me off sick for 2 weeks and i'm going to take this time to think about what i'm going to do and the steps i'm going to take in order to help make myself well. i need an action plan for support from uni, i'm going to start painting, i'm going to think about whether i should quit my job and only concentrate on uni. and although all of these things are good and well, i feel like there's so much work to do, my doctor has changed my tablets again, beta blockers didnt work and now shes given me a different kind of antidepressants. is there light at the end of the tunnel? i also spoke to my older sister last night, finally, she doesn't really believe mental illness exists, well shes never experienced it (lucky for her). she brought up that i might be bipolar, as my mum was, should i tell my doctor this? i knew my mum was mentally ill when i was young but i wasn't aware of what was causing her illness, will this be significant?

Think about your mental health and uni but also try to keep things in your life as simple as possible. No dramas. You will get through Hun,just be gentle to yourself and find time just for relaxation xxx
