Mental illness

[Missrose94]

Hello

I really need some help
I have been feeling down for several months now and I no longer have the energy to go on I feel as if every thing is getting worse day by day. I have been to and from doctors since I was 13 I am now 23 so 10 years on and I don't feel as if I'm being helped in the right way. I have been on different medication in the past e.g. Citrolpam beater blockers and now i am on fluexotine. At first I started to feel great like the first week or two, I have now been on them for over a month and I am not feeling any better I have serious mood swings i get angry and can't control myself and I am worried I will end up hurting myself or someone else I love. I would never physically hurt someone but I push people away and I'm mean to them to stop people getting close to me. I have a fear about people getting close to me, I hate to be hurt and I don't trust anyone. With work I'm always such a good worker however I always get to a point where I feel like I don't fit in, everyone is talking and laughing about me and doesn't want me there.

Can anyone please help me and advice what I should do the doctors and mental health team haven't been helpful through the NHS as I keep getting sent to a different person each time and private is to expensive

Missrose, have you been referred to a psychiatrist?? Did the mental health team offer you any councilling?? Have you expressed your mood swings and feelings of anger to the gp??

Hello Cmblue

I have yes and I don't feel it helped I kept getting a different one every time using the NHS. I just feel lost like I don't know what to do anymore.

:(

Keep persisting, I know the mental health service is over stretched but a psychiatrist may try you on medication your gp is unable to prescribe, in the end I took my mother in with me who told him my mood swings were unbearable for everyone and my anger is horrible to be around and he took notice!! I know it's such a Sh## situation and trust me your not alone, it takes so much time aswell, there's plenty of self help books, have you tried any? What's your support network like??
