Need help

I've recently been having really bad feelings and it's getting to a point now where I have to do something about it becasue it's seriously starting to affect my life. When it's at it's most severe it comes and goes, once or twice a week, and anything can set it off. The environment I'm in, an arguement etc. I'm becoming more and more antisocial and I'm losing interest in my life. I just feel like a zombie drifting around. I keep things bottled up and I never share my feelings with anyone and I don't want to. I really need to sort this out because it's becoming unbearable.

Yeah I've been to the doc twice about it. Waste of time really. Intrusive thoughts...yes. My mind does seem to run wild with thoughts and emotions. I can't control it. Sometimes I literally have to tell myself aloud to 'shut the f*ck up'. How would you describe it?

Is your problem possibly intrusive thoughts, or something of that nature if so I may be able to relate

Thanks for the advice, I'll see what I can do. God I hate uni though....if I could turn back time...it's like a thorn in my side. It's really getting me down. I'm beginning to think I can't hack it. But I'll try the uni doctor. I have to do something. I'm going insane here. It's making me ill.

Im at university as well living basically alone, i live in halls with 36 other people but im pretty much alone a lot of the time to i know what it feels like. Have you been to see a doctor, ive tried seeing dozens of doctors i only found a doctor who would take me seriously when i came to university they told me i was possible bipolar and had moderate symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder. Try at your university they seem to be a lot more understanding than normal doctors mainly because A LOT of people at university are mentally ill.

Its good that you dont drink it feels like it helps everything in the short term but in the long term it completely destroys your life take it from me. Let me know how things progress my friend ok?

Does your university have a student health and counseling center?  You should make an appointment with a professional ASAP.

I don't do drugs at all and I rarely drink. Can make it worse so I try avoid it. I don't live on my own but I am alone a lot of the time, and it's getting a lot worse. I'm at uni, which I hate. Have a job, money's ok. Just don't want my life to turn out the way it's going. But I can't seem to bring myself to sort it out. I just want to drift away somewhere, and leave it all behind.

Are you currently abusing any drugs or alcohol? What is your housing and financial situation like? Do you live alone?
