I'm not sure if I have a problem.
I've always been unhappy and I've always been angry (in a shouting way). I had a few CBT sessions about a year ago which helped a bit, but I've been having difficulty practicing what I learnt recently and I feel like I'm failing.
This morning I've been a crying, shouting mess and I know that some of it will be PMS, but it's like I've lost control. I just about pulled myself together to get my little one into school, but crumpled when I got home and have been crying on and off since. I'm exhausted. And my family deserve better. It's been an extreme today, but I feel permanently agitated, sad or both. There are only a few times in my life that I can truly recognise as being happy. Does that mean I'm just a negative person and need to pull myself together?
I have booked an appointment at the doctors this afternoon, but I have no idea what I'm going to say or what I want them to do, other than wave a magic wand. How do I know if this is really a problem or if I'm just useless and can't deal with life like other people seem to manage to do?
