I had been to doctors a few weeks ago because I felt really sad alot of the time and had anxiety issues. I had been betablockers before which really helped but this time when I went to the doctor I told him I'm unhappy, anxious and don't feel like I'm getting better. That I just try to keep hobbies to keep my mind off it.
But he said well come back in a 3 to 4 weeks to see how you are then.

I've just got worse. Crying and not wanting to be around anyone. I act like I'm ok when I see people I know but inside feel so crap.
I'm paranoid and think that no one likes me is out to get me, and even thought about self harm. I just stay home and not move from my bed/sofa. I don't want to see anyone .
I just keep going on cause I have to. But I wish could disappear.
I'm worried the doctor will not take me seriously
No one ever does. They just take the mic out of me

I take you seriously, OP.

I'd go back to the GP and tell them how it really is - don't sugar-coat it, there's always the risk of putting on too brave a face. You may have given your GP the impression that it's not as bad as it really is. But try to see a different GP next time in case the last one isn't the best on MH issues.

Good luck, from one who knows who you feel. x
