I’ve had some medication adjustments done for my anti-depressants about a month ago and it’s making things really tough for me. I can feel more symptoms of my depression and anxiety breaking through, and I’ve been feeling very overwhelmed at work over the past week. I’ve often felt the need to take half a day off when I’m in my office and I’ve had trouble focusing on my tasks. I’ve been really restless, irritable and unmotivated, and it is completely unlike how I usually am. It’s pretty prominent that even my colleague has noticed it. I don’t really know how to describe it because it doesn’t feel like just work fatigue, it’s just plain horrible.

I’ve already made an appointment to see my doctor earlier to discuss this and make changes to my dosage but it’s going to take awhile and I feel so overwhelmed by the fact that it’s going to be like this for the next couple of weeks. It’s Monday tomorrow where I am, and I’m so anxious about it and worried that I’ll end up taking the day off and having it affect my job (I take time off to see my medical team quite often so it’s worrying). I hate the feeling and I hate that I feel so helpless until things get better. I feel like I’m going to have a breakdown soon and I’ve no idea how to make things better.

The mind is a vessel that travels deep into the oceans of the unknown
Into the depths of darkness and uncertainty that we try to steer clear of
Thoughts, conscious or not, spiral out of control as we fight to stay afloat

Does anyone else also have the issue where you have severe anxiety and randomly start feeling sick? You know you aren’t ill but something is just off.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some advice/support. My neighbour has been dealing with some addiction and mental health issues and has become increasingly aggressive, intimidating and harassing. It’s been causing me an insane amount of anxiety (I’ve talked to the police but there’s nothing they can do at this point). It’s also causing some trauma reactions because of my past with aggressive men. I went away for the weekend to the country to try and get away from it but I’m still having obsessive anxiety and rumination about what he could do to my family/pets. I haven’t been able to sleep or eat much the last week or so (both at home and away) because of the anxiety and I feel like I’m losing control and the stability I’ve worked so hard to have with my mental illness.

I find that vacuuming is one of my triggers. Even just thinking about needing to do it makes me anxious.

Does anyone else have anxiety over cleaning? If so, how do you work with your anxiety? I'm more asking as a fellow person with anxiety looking to discuss this topic...not looking for specific answers for myself, necessarily.
