I've been diagnosed with depression and have been signed off work for the last six weeks.
I'm taking Sertraline and it's kind of helping but I'm not sleeping too well and find other people (ie not family or friends) so hard to be around...I feel cornered and my way of responding to it is to get REALLY BLOODY MURDEROUSLY ANGRY! I don't like feeling like that at all, but I feel intimidated by people and very low in confidence.
So far I've managed to reign it in and not cause a scene, I know I'm not going to feel better by getting into a screaming match with a stranger in the street but the sheer mental energy all of this takes up is exhausting.
I've been waiting to see a counsellor since August and still no sign of an appointment, I'm just finding it hard to get to a place where I feel better and can cope with just being around people.
