I posted yesterday I'm having continuous Pvcs/palpitations.
The last few months I've felt sick to my stomach every day.
I don't want to go anywhere.
Today I've cried all day,I don't think there's a way out.
I've been screaming and banging things because I'm done now.
I won't get over this.
Went to GP today and I get told the same bull it's anxiety and stress.
I haven't slept since Friday because I'm having constant ectopic beats.
I don't know what's happening.
I can't explain how angry I am,I nearly punched my cousin earlier and I don't even care.

Didn't want to read and run Flowers
Hope you're feeling a little bit better for letting it out on here, your doctor sounds crap. Try another one? There must be something they can do.

So your doctor thinks it's anxiety and stress but how are they proposing to help yoy?

If you dont think it's anxiety and stress, what do you think it might be? Could it be depression (when I was depressed my overwhelming emotions were frustration and anger, not sadness)?

I started cbt
They gave me beta blockers (which I think have made my heart worse)
She's gave me diazepam for a week.

You need to go back to the gp. It sounds like depression and you need medication. Whatever it is, you can't carry on like this!

beerandwine · 26/11/2018 16:09

I don't even know what's wrong anymore.
It's getting me so down.

Glad you started CBT! It’s not a quick fix, you need to give it time and expend a lot of effort for it to work.

I can’t say if you’re having ‘a breakdown’ as there’s no real definition of what that means, it’s a bit of a colloquial term I think to suggest you’re struggling to cope or in acute distress. I do know that most emotional distress does pass and get better. The most important thing is keeping yourself safe in the meantime and hunkering down until the storm passes. Ring samaritans if you feel able to, you don’t have to be alone.

Please get a second GP opinion. Have you had a good physical health screen for overactive thyroid, electrolyte imbalance, blood sugars etc?

beerandwine · 26/11/2018 17:01

They have checked my thyroid and that's fine.
They said my electrolytes are fine too
They won't do any more tests on me

Beerandwine You were given lots of support and advice on the thread you started yesterday here. I don't think posting here is really helping you any.

AnchorDownDeepBreath · 26/11/2018 17:22

OP this isn't helping you: it's making you more anxious. You are using well-intentioned advice from people who don't recognise your posts to support your anxieties.

You have to start helping yourself now; or you're either going to end up in hospital or in police custody.

Have you taken a diazepam?
