Feel Terrible At Weekends Posted: 11-28-06 15:49pm
For about the past five years i've been
feeling terrible, but only at weekends and
all through monday. I work monday to
friday and on saturday's, usually at late
afternoon I start to get a foggy feeling
in my head and a dull headache, this
carries on through sunday, also developing
a bad taste in my mouth, palpitations, the
heart beat can really be felt through
sunday afternoon and evening. By sunday
night I just feel terrible, like
jetlagged, fatigued, headache around the
front of the head, generally feel blue,
don't want to interact with people and
usually struggle to get to sleep on sunday
night. It's like my head is buzzing with
loads of thoughts and can't relax enough
to go straight to sleep like I usually
can. Can't remember the last time I woke
on a monday morning and felt fresh for the
new week, the symptoms carry on through
monday feeling like a hangover all day,
the whole thing starts to reside as the
working day passes and I get back into
things. By monday night it's a dull
headache but wearing off. Wake up
tuesday and feel ok again. I know this
must sound really strange, how can this
just happen at weekends, whats going on?
I've tried getting up early at weekends,
laying in late, eating at the same times
as I do in the week. Nothing seems to
prevent this 'feeling' from coming on. I
do suffer from anxiety and some social
phobia, for which I take st. Johns wort
(for the pas year) but my wife and I get
out and about a bit on saturdays, usually
morning and early afternoon, before I know
that this 2 day uninvited hangover is
about to strike. Any ideas?

Hi jamie,
it is hard to tell when my anxiety is at
is worse. Maybe you are anxious because
you think that you might have to go
somewhere or do something out of your
comfort zone on weekends and during the
week your life is structure so you know
where you will be and when etc!
I have only heard bad things about st
johns wart - so be careful with that
