Hi, i was at doctors around 2 months ago had a really low mood come on to me out of no where while i was at work, it made me have thoughts about life and whats the point ect, i calmed down and it went away within half an hour, i had a really dry mouth and i had to call someone but when i was on the phone i didnt want to speak, i was worried about this for a while and didnt really feel normal till about 3 weeks ago, i was giving propolono beta blockers, they put it down as anxiety, so i started taking them and i started to get back to myself eventually i had been feeling fine or to myself for the past 2 weeks and my mum got taken into hospital last week for mental health depression, shes been telling me everything and its been heavy, im only 21 and shes been going through this for a while now its taking an affect on me i think, i had been feeling back to myself untill she went in, now the past week ive been off work, feeling i just want to sleep it off, my appetite is away, when my friends are round i gradually feel better, my eyes feel heavy, i get strange thoughts running through my mind sometimes, i dont really like being alone, i dont know if this is depression or anxiety or how i can help myself get better i dont want this to get any worse??? Im waiting on a mental health team to speak to me before i decide to take tablets, im just worried incase i end up badly depressed or if im already depressed...

      Wow what a tough ride you went through, I see why you say now we can get better, did you turn to alcohol for relief? I've often thought will that help me! But I wont, I know that I wont help in the long run, in the beginning did you get help or just try and self medicate? And is that why you got worse? Thank you Deidre, god bless your strength and courage , you are a try survivor in my eyes xx

    Hi lovely, yes see your GP..it can be a great help....I know how pressures affect everything in your life...my son had a. Serious breakdown she. He was 17yrs..he was sectioned for four months...in fact all three of my son's suffer from both mental and severe health problems..( not caused by the medication, so don't worry lovely. ).....I was being bullied in the job I was in...only by one person, but ..I began to drink and one day after three yrs , I just walker out.....luckily , I three sons live at home and always will, but we know that they will be safe and always have home.xx a weight of our mind.....our daughter has a little baby boy, she and her partner are very very happy...

    Our sons live at home because of their problems...we know that they are safe here.......I do so hope that you talk to your GP and ask him for medication and counselling...it is awful to feel miserable and dread!! Every day...but you can climb out of this black hole lovely...I wish you so soooo much luck....happiness and true peace of mind....you all deserve it....you will be in my thoughts...HUGS, and the sincerest best wishes to you all...DEIRDRE xxx xxx...
