Sick of living like this

Mental health
1

So I’ve had anxiety and I guess depression for years now I’m 37 male and for the last six months have been living in a dream world.

Always shaky always tired always on edge.

My worst symptom is needing to pee all the time I drink a lot of water but pee a ridiculous amount if I drink too much water and then get a bit of a sore urethra. I’m male and my doctors have done all the normal tests and they always tell me that it is anxiety which makes my anxiety worst and then symptoms worst...

I don’t know what to do I’m so scared all the time that I’m dieing and something is majorly wrong with me.. 

has anyone been through similar or got any advice.

I’m waiting to see a urologist on a waiting list which makes me even more anxious.

Please help

Hey Carl,

I’m so tired of living like this too. I’ve seen 3 cardiologists and been to the ER 4 times in the last 3 months. I’ve done echocardiogram and 8 ECGs. They’re saying nothing wrong with my heart. My worst symptom is chest fluttering. Do you experience this? Today I got one that lasted about 7 seconds and I got dizzy and so scared. I’m always terrified.

Hi Albert yes I do get this but to be honest it doesn’t worry me as I’ve had it for so long I’m anxious most of the time and my heart does race a lot it is horrible I just can’t handle my symptoms right now it’s horrible and sore 😥

Same here Carl. I feel so mentally exhausted. I feel like I cannot enjoy life because I’m constantly worried and anxious. How long do your chest flutters usually last?

Not too long mainly a few minutes mainly from panic attacks though

Dude sorry to hear this.

Yeah I've been feeling this same way for many years. I've gotten quite good at convincing myself that it's all in my head. I have bad times too bad not so much now.

Ask your gp for help. Cognitive therapy can help with obsessive thoughts...and excercising man. It's good to push your body and you will suddenly think..hey I can do this.

Stay away from alcohol and social media and Dr Google. These are things that work for me...but I think it's sound advice.

Take care
