Hi i would really like any advise please. I had a nervous breakdown two years ago. I spent a year in bed with such servier physical symptoms. The hospital or doctors did not no what was wrong with me. I just felt I was left to go home and get on with it myself. Through desperation I had to do slot of research to find out what was wrong with me. Although the year in bed was literally like something from a horror movie that I never want to go back to. I am left with these set backs that make me feel like a bag of nerves and have health anxiety I have really physcotic episodes for a few weeks then ok for a few weeks. I have lost my job and have two children. I permanatley feel like I am walking round convincing my self I am dying from a terminal illness. It is not fair on my children and I feel like I am not getting the right care or medication. I have never met anyone who is going through thus he'll after a breakdown or can not find any research about it online I feel like I am the only one?

    Hi, you should seek help from a good psychiatrist or psychotherapist for the right diagnosis and treatment.
