Im just so down and depressed tonight and need someone to talk to. I have 2 obsessions.... heart and brain. of course I have physical symptoms to support both fears. I have daily chest pain and palpitations, with dizziness and numbness. I have bad headaches and Im clumsy and hit my head frequently, which always makes me fear Im dying from a brain bleed. I am in constant fear and constant baddle in my mind and Im just sooo tired of the pain. Wasting my life on constant fear and missing this presicous life. If its not one thing, its another. I visit the er literally once a week and once I get reassurance from the doc, another starts. I don't take meds because Im scared of them and Im a drinker
Not sure it’s really my place as I’m not a doctor but the best advice I can offer is give the meds a try don’t be scared of them I had them sat in my kitchen for weeks as I was too scared to take them but it got to a point where I figured they can’t make me any worse than I feel right now so I started taking them and I was right nothing bad happened they take a long time to start working but they did work. my gp said I am fine to drink with the tablets though personally I don’t as drink makes anxiety worse so I cut it out completely but I know this is hard for some people if they are heavy drinkers so to end my rambling try to cut the drinking down as much as you can and give the meds a try. hope this helps.
you would benefit from speaking to a counselor about your fears. they can help you manage it.
