Constant feeling on verge of meltdown

Golf23

Lately, the last 3 or 4 days, I have had the feeling of being on the edge of a meltdown and nothing I do works to calm me down, I need some help!!!

I am wearing the loops I have more than ever, clothes are irritating me and even the clothes that I find normally really comfortable are irritating me. 

Can anyone suggest something to help?

    Sorry to hear you have been feeling this way. Sounds really scary and exhausting. Did your feeling improve slightly in the past few days ?

    I have only had those kinds of feelings for a few hours at a time, 48h tops, so I'm not sure if it is quite the same thing. Here is what usually helps me (neither of those options sound healthy. I know. But they help me get through the day. And help the feeling go away much, much faster. That way I can analyze what could have been the cause later, with a clear head, to prevent it from happening next time.)

    1) to escape reality. Some people manage to escape reality with music, movies, hobbies, getting lost in the forest etc. I like to escape reality by using some mind exercise (similar to what's referred as "safe space") where I disconnect from reality and live in a world of my own. I stay there until the feeling is over or until I pass out.

    2) wear myself out physically. I exercise until I feel dizzy enough that this feeling tunes out.

    Those were just my two cents. Hope you feel better !
