Hello all,
For a long time now I have been getting really disruptive and anxious feelings during a lot of my daily life. I haven’t been exactly keeping track of how often this occurs but now that I think about it I probably have these thoughts at least once a day, if not more. When they happen they make me feel almost nauseous (the normal pit of your stomach feeling, but worse) and I’m a bit sick of feeling like this all the time!
I’ve been doing sort of behaviours to try and combat the thoughts (e.g looking at things a certain number of times, or choosing certain ways of walking) - having recently thought about this a bit more deeply and written it down I’ve realised there might be something more going on than just normal worries.
I’ve referred myself to my local talking therapies service but now thinking this might have been an overreaction. I know not to take advice on this thread as if it’s from actual mental health professionals but just wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar and if so could share advice/a light at the end of the tunnel?
Thank you! 😊
