I Dont Know Whats Wrong With Me Posted: 08-19-04 10:54am
Looking for some advise here. I seem to
be so depressed lately, I have major panic
attachs, thats what I think it is anyway,
I am grouchy all the time to my husband
and my kids, I yell at them over nothing
at all, and all the time im doing this, im
thinking leave them alone. Every little
thing gets on my nerves so bad, I dont
want to talk to anyone, I dont want to go
anywhere, I just wanna stay cooped up the
house. I dont even talk to my husband
about anything anymore and when he tries
to talk to me I bite his head off. I fear
this whatever is wrong with me is going to
destroy my marriage. I dont want to talk
to my family, or do the things that we use
to do, I dont want to shop or anything. I
dont know what to do about this. I am
embarassed to say that I have a problem to
my family, I know I probably need to see a
doctor, for I have been this way for
almost a year now and its only getting
worse. Someone please help me with this.
Not only am I suffering but the ppl I love
are suffering too.

I was depressed just like that in college
for a couple of months. I never saw a
doctor, and lucky for me, I was able to
deal with it mentally by convincing myself
that I was ok. It doesn't work for
everyone, but it worked for me! Just
start believing that you're ok and it
might help. If it doesn't, i'd definitely
recommend you see a doctor.

always a good idea to get checked by a
doctor to rule out any underlying physical
problems. Doctors tend to want to
prescribe medicines for everythiung and I
think you would be better served getting
involved in a cbt program. It is one of
the most effective treatments for anxiety,
panic and depression and can be done with
or without meds. It will teach you how to
correct the thinking errors you are making
(that you probably don't even realize you
are making) that is causing your problems
with anxiety and depression. My favorite
starter book on cbt is "been there, done
that? Do this! By sam obitz if you're
interested and many universities offer cbt
programs for little or no charge. It's
the best stress reducer around and once
you learn the tools they are with you
wherever you go :d
