The past two years have been very tricky with a series of really rubbish life events including bereavements in the immediate family. It feels like we’ve lurched from one crisis to another.
Mostly I’m managing okay day to day now, but I’m struggling to cope if something even slightly stressful comes up. For example, I find taking the kids on a day out incredibly stressful eg making lunches, arguing in the car etc. Last night I was in tears , feeling very anxious over a very minor problem with the house. Also, im getting some wierd physical symptoms like dizziness.
Ive had anxiety in the past when I had a very stressful job and it was constant, unlike this. I’m not working at the moment so I’m wondering whether the feeling is different because I’m not constantly facing tricky situations?
Is it worth seeing GP? Is there anything that would help?
