Suze Report post Posted September 7, 2011 Maybe its time to see your GP even if it is just for a chat, I have had to take anti ds for a very bad time I was going through, they did help although I realy did,nt want to take them.They did,nt make me gain weight either.If you are feeling really low see your GP, suzex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickyB Report post Posted September 7, 2011 i really don't want to admit this to my doc that i've reached this breaking point! XKLX I agree with the others, smiley - go and have a chat with your GP. It is his/her job to look after your health, and to help you overcome your issues. I've recently been suffering from anxiety and panic attacks, which came completely out of nowhere, and I went to see my GP. I've never had any problems of this nature before, so it was difficult for me to tell him, but it made me feel so much better, and I'm going to get some counselling. He didn't make any judgements or assumptions about me and I'm sure your doctor won't either. Hope you are feeling better soon x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XKLX Your doctor will be used to speaking to people who feel they have reached breaking point, it is a normal part of his day to day job. Admitting that you are not coping is the all-important first step to recovery. Simon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
