Once again i am posting in here as i believe i have found out what is really causing my depression as all my racing thoughts come down to being really really scared about going completely crazy and i need some advice?? any little headache i got im like oh my am i slowly going crazy?

today i felt good for a period of time like i didnt have racing thoughts, but its like my mind triggers in that time and says wait your feeling good with no racing thoughts, thats a sign of you going crazy!! like i cannot feel normal at anytime now because for everything i feel like i am going crazy and it scares me..i dont hear voices in my head but it freaks me out like omg what if you start to hear voices that means your gonna go insane and i start freaking out that im scared to close my eyes because i am scared of hearing noises...its so wierd but is it like just being completely paranoid? or does anybody know what it can be?? i go lay on my bed aroun 12am and get off my bed at like 1 or2pm and i start to get tired around 8 its so wierd..i need some advice please help me

yea i have an appointment with my doctor tomorrow and one with a psychiatrist on the 29th...as i have not taken any medicine for what im feeling  just once or twice i took a clonazapam tablet after my first couple panic attacks...but it was my aunts as i have not been perscribed anything! i went to the E.R one day when i had a panic attack...after that i was diagnosed with anxiety and went to my doctor about two days after! he then gave me an appoitment for sept 29th and i saw my doct aug 21st it seemed kind of a long time but....hopefully with just a little therapy and light medication i can get back on track!!

I disagree with the above comment. I would not characterize your anxiety as severe, and I would also not be so quick to diagnose it as a chemical imbalance. only a doctor can tell you these things. I would advice you to talk to a mental health professional. BTW, valium is an extemely dangerous drug and should not be the first line of defense for what you are feeling.

I am very interested in medicine as I do a great deal of research! I am not a doctor...But it sounds like to me you have a severe case of Anxiety and panic disorders which is a caused by a chemical in your brain that is releasing negative spurts! Valium would help you a great deal! by calming you and relaxing your mental state,also ABILIFY can help as an add-on depression treatment, or treatment for Bipolar I Disorder (Manic or Mixed) or Schizophrenia in adults,you should seek a  psychiatrist someone who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders. All psychiatrists are trained in diagnostic evaluation and could very well get you back on the right track! we all go through things in life and at times we need meds to help us along the way and there is nothing wrong with that! if you do not have insurance there are clincs who will accept you! and also the ER can give you a referral to someone! Best Of Luck! Take it easy! you will be ok!
