anxiety and depression

Anxiety

Depression

I've always been an anxious person but since a few months this has increased so much. Going to a doctor is a nightmare. I went to a psychiatrist last month and was prescribed medicines. And I have felt a little better. I have had no panic attacks since 2 weeks. I am able to get out of bed. But still I have this heavy feeling in my chest all the time, like I'm scared of something but I don't know what exactly. I have very supportive and loving family, boyfriend, friends. Career is planned. Everything's perfect, I don't have any reason to be anxious or depressed and this worries me so much. Right now what is worrying me is I need to go to a doctor for prescription and dose adjustments and this is making me so anxious that I'm considering stopping medicines which is very stupid but i just can't go to a doctor. Please help me What do I do I know going to the doctor is the correct thing to do I'm so scared But I'm also scared about going to the worst phase if I stop medicines

Yes I will have to go to the doctor. Thankyou so much. Can you please tell will this ever end? My worry is that will I stop feeling this way, or with treatment I'm going to learn to deal with this? Right now even on good days it's not like I don't feel anxious or don't have thoughts. Even for sleep, I'm learning techniques which help me fall asleep. Am I going to be Normally happy and fall asleep in minutes like everyone else does? I'm extremely tired of everything, always feeling like I'm bothering everyone with my rants, complaints. Even doctors will get tired of me. I know this is not true but I can't help having such thoughts. There are people asking me I'm getting so anxious without any stress, what will I do when there are difficult situations in life? All this just makes me feel weak. I feel guilty all the time, for every minute I waste, for every small mistake I make that doesn't even matter. I desperately want to get out of this, want to feel normal, happy.

i think you are thinking too much which may be the result of not having to think any other stuff. Try keeping yourself busy in other things so that you dont have thoughts. Your brain needs to control your thoughts which can be trained. Start by having a routine. Just fix time for things you want to do with your day and complete it on time so your brain doesn't have to think for every task. Once you are in balance you will start to have less of these kinds of thoughts which makes you anxious.
