I'm a 24 year old male who has been seriously stressed for going on 4 years now. I feel like trash right now.
The back of my neck is always tense and in pain. I clench my jaw and there's thick mucus in my nose and throat. There's been some serious ringing in my ears over the past few months and what feels like pressure behind my eyes. Sometimes when I stand for a long period of time or go up and down an elevator I will start to feel off balance. I feel pressure in my chest often and constantly fear that I will have a heart attack or my lungs are going to collapse. On top of all of that, I've been starting to find life to be meaningless and seeing myself in almost third-person. When I defecate, the feces smells awful and is watery, plus my bowels feel irritated all of the time.
I have been to probably 10 different doctors, most of which have told me I had anxiety and either a sinus infection or allergies that have affected my sleep, in turn, destroying my mood even further. I've taken antibiotics for a possible infection, but my sinuses have not improved at all. I wake up every morning with super loud ringing in my ears and the taste of what I think is mucus in my mouth, and I've probably put on 50 pounds in 30 years which makes me feel even worse about myself.
Just feels like I'm never going to get better, cuz Idk what is wrong.
