First time I’ve ever done anything like this so don’t really know how to go about it. I guess by the title it’s obvious what I’m trying to discuss and see if anyone feels as s**t as me. Well where to start I’m a 30 year old father of two young children with a very understanding other half. i have physical problems which I suffered from a stroke many moons ago. I have this problem where my mind is going 5000 mph and my body 1mph and just can’t cope I feel like my head is going to explode I have had intrusive thoughts my whole life which have turned into voices which the phychiatrist put down to depression and severe anxiety and have been put on 30mg of mirtrazapine and loads of other things I just don’t “get me” if that makes sense found this hard to write even though I’m not actually talking to anyone face to face or going to meet whoever reads this just can’t seem to find the words to describe me I’m just lost.
Hello , NAS38692 and welcome. Well, I'm diagnosed with two of the things in your subject line and suspected to have the other two. The overactive mind is a problem at times too (not so much at the moment when a but shut down and metaphorically paralysed). And have described myself as lost and bewildered. There are probably good reasons for not having the words - what you're experiencing isn't talked about much in general.
