Having posted on here before, I am now posting again on the subject of mtpy terrible racing thoughts.
I am now off work for the fourth week running, and the ailment that originally began as a very bad winter flu virus has now developed into full blown depression with horrible racing thoughts on every occasion now that I close my eyes and try to sleep. I’ve asked my doctor for help, and whilst they’ve prescribed me umpteen meds, only the Zopiclone has helped me. This does at least get me to sleep, and calms me for a while, but as soon as it wears off in the morning the racing thoughts begin again, and so I am totally unable to rest at all during the day without dosing myself up with alcohol - which I assure you I have now stopped - or simply staying awake.
i was also given some Diazepm (2mg) but this didn’t work at all, so I’ve stopped taking it now altogether.
My life is now a living hell and at 63 I can see no other future for me than living out the rest of my days in a mental hospital where they’ll just experiment on me and keep almost permanently sedated until I die.
