Struggling and dont know where to turn

mouse2

I'm really struggling with memories right now and dont know where to go for help. Something happened years ago its complicated but I wasent listened to, plus anxiety, depression etc I thought maybe I was wrong (even though now I'm stronger I know I'm right). I keep replaying stuff over and over in my head. I dont know where to turn. I went to gp for help but just get tablets. I only have my husband. No family or friends as I struggle no matter how hard I try to keep friends. I feel I'm drowning and theres no way out. I asked gp for autism diagnosis as I started seeing similar issues in women with autism blogs etc. But I failed the questionnaire to be put forward and was rejected. They asked things like are you married and I am but I failed to mention the amount of times we've split up but as I have no one else in the world I go back. I've really struggled in life. I feel I've been targeted by people who posed as friends and only when it's too late do I know they used me for something. I cant sleep, eat, it gets too much I breakdown in tears in my room. Just huge sobs then feel better a little while until memories flood in once more. Everything's so loud right now, everything's too much. I need help but dont know how or where

  • Could you ask to see a different GP?

    Aren't there talking therapies you can access on the NHS (albeit with a long waiting list)?

    Also, what autism quiz was that that you took?-  Maybe you could fill in the AQ 50 and take it with you as evidence to your GP

    From my experience of poor MH, I'd just say, take things a moment at a time. Also, from personal experience, you have no choice but to forgive and forget about the past cos dwelling on it will take you down and eat you up inside.

    I've taken so many quizzes read so many blogs.ill take the aq50 with me if I get the courage to go back. My parents never understood why I'd have crying fits at noises or spun in the kitchen. I'd get so stressed my mum said i was bad tempered or nasty. Until I was 16 I was told to make my own way and was kicked out. That's Nother thing, can they diagnose without my parents? I wrote to my mum before about help with her point of view but she didnt reply
