Have had depression on and off since being 18 (am now 35). Have DS2 with SN and we have recently been told that they think they got his diagnosis wrong. He is having loads of tests at the mo - general anaesthetics etc etc. I am having really scary thoughts - usually whilst I am in bed and it is stopping me from sleeping properly, although when I get absolutely knackered, I sleep through for a couple of nights!! We live on a main road and there is traffic going past the house - usually quite fast in the middle of the night. To me, it sounds like missiles going past. I wake up to the noise and think we are all going to die. I am terrified that a truck is going to hit our house and kill us all. Last night, a plane went over and I was so scared I couldn't hear it properly - to me, it sounded like it was going to crash into my bedroom.
I daren't tell my husband how I am feeling - he will think I have gone completely loopy. I have never felt like this before when I have been depressed.
Am I depressed or just anxious? Am so confused.
