I feel like I am losing the plot. I have been signed off work for two weeks because of 'stress', but even the smallest problem at home is making my heart race, my mouth go dry and constant fretting. I can't sleep as I can never switch my brain off.
I am perimenopausal but on HRT which normally helps. Why can't I handle life anymore? I still have 15 years of work left, if I keep feeling like this I won't be able to leave the house.
Any advice would be really appreciated.

Sounds like anxiety? Maybe use these 2 weeks to identify the reasons behind your anxiety problem, also to look up some relaxation techniques.

If no help go back to your GP & explain exactly how you feel.
