complicated

by Architrix, Dec 31, 2008 01:16PM
i am 29years old professional. i have been having a weird feeling difficult to classify or give it a name. as hard as it is to explain i will try to tell you how i feel & hope too hear from any one for advise. (currently i weigh about 50kg & i am 169cm tall).

1. most of the time feel weak/lazy...
2. am not food fun, i do eat cos i know if i dont eat i will have a problem. my appetite is not great. i hardly finish what ever i order or make. & it is a struggle or unhappy feeling to push my self to eat or finish
3. i do smoke, the problem with my smoking is that the more i feel weak or tired i feel like a smoke & get even tired or weak
4. i used to drink but i would not call my self a heavy drinker but some how at some point i really got into depression or anxiety where i was short tempered, moody, at some times i almost black out, cant breath...i used to really get scared as if it is the end of the world or scared that i am going crazy. after consulting with psychiatrist i got some calming medicine & eventually i figured out alcohol was playing a big roll. if i dont drink for a week i am all fine the day i drink i will be in mess again for another week. so i stopped drinking even a sip.& relatively am ok. unfortunately i never got a satisfactory answer from my doctors on this weird feeling.
5. my weight is also a problem. i did not loose any bu i have always been small, & it worries me a lot. now i have started gym with a trainer & will see what comes out. do you think taking protein shakes & creten could have any influence on my health specially mind health?
6. when i run into a big problem i immediately lose energy, feel weak lose control
7. the biggest concern of all when ever i feel bad in my stomach (pain, hungry, nausia, cramps...etc) it affects my mind. i become depressed/anxiety...etc. i feel like the doctors are not getting this relationship clear to me.
8. every time i feel the above feelings i go for full check, blood, urin...etc & all the tests are perfect no problem other than for slight iron deficiency which i took suplements.

so any one out there help me to wards the right direction.

i do appreciate your effort & your time.
God Bless

hi there,
i think first of all that you need to jump onto a mental health forum here as they can support you better than a DS forum, then you will likely find people who experience similar problems.
I also belive that the mind and body are very closely connected and our mental health plays a great role in our bodies health. it sounds like you have looked for physical reasons for your state of mind but perhaps you need to look at your mental health that is causing the physical issues? i am not calling you crazy by the way, you sound far from it and looking into your mental health does not make you mentally unhealthy either.
it sounds like two things could be an issue...depression or chemicals taking a toll on your mind and body. if smoking has such an effect on your body, you need to stop doing it! there is nothing positive to come from smoking and if it gives you direct symptoms then that is very likely a problem to your body.
perhaps talking with a doctor, councellor or registered nurse with a background of "holistic care" which is looking at the entire body, not just symptoms, you may find the answer.
good luck
