I feel like I'm going crazy

[DizFan101]

I feel like i'm going crazy.
My mind is always blank, i can't seem to concentrate on anything any more and have no interests in anything. It seems like i always am starring out like a zombie. . I don't really have any emotions any more. it's like i don't care about things in my life any more. .
It hit me hard yesterday night when i was trying to go to bed. My mind went blank. I was physically tired but my mind was blank and i couldn't go to bed until 2-3am. I cried myself to sleep. I don't know whats wrong with me.


Am i going crazy?

Mayyyyyybe...But more than likely you're just stressed and it's your way of dealing.

Has anything been causing more stress than usual?

Try some vitamin B

 

[WDWBarb]

You shouldn't feel that way and you don't have to. You need to see a doctor.

Sounds like early stages of depression. Don't know if you have health insurance or not, but I'd consider doctoring up...

Go to your doctor and have some standard blood work done. Ask specifically for a thyroid panel. Tell him/her all of your symptoms and go from there. Could be so many different reasons but rule out a physical problem first.

Hope you get some answers!

You're not going crazy but anxiety and depression can make you feel like you are. Go to a walk in health care clinic if there's one where you live, if not go to your doctor's office. Hugs and I hope you feel better. Keep us posted.

I would say that you are suffering from anxiety and depression for sure.

As far as "going crazy" as in a psychotic state, hopefully not. The fact you can recognize you have a serious issue is a good sign.

Psychosis is a loss of contact with reality, usually including false beliefs about what is taking place or who one is (delusions) and seeing or hearing things that aren't there (hallucinations).

Agree with the others and go see your primary care doctor, get some blood work to rule out anything medical and then go from there. Get yourself a psychiatrist, get some meds and then get a good counselor.

Hitting the proverbially wall is something that a lot of us deal with personally and I can tell you that there is good help out for you. You have to be brave and take the steps in that direction. You can do it.

How old are you? Maybe you're perimenopausal and that can happen as early as your late 30's or early 40's. Those kind of symptoms can show up when your hormones get out of whack. Whether it's menopause or depression, it does sound like you should see a doctor so you can feel better. Please keep us posted {{hugs}}.

I doubt you're "going crazy," but I'd be willing to be you have depression and maybe anxiety. Go to your MD. She/he sees patients with depression all the time and will be able to give you something to help and advise you what you should do next.

Probably just a bad day. Really, I doubt any one on this forum can diagnose your problem with that little information.

Just a bad day? It sounds like it's chronic, from what she says, not acute. And it's pretty much textbook for depression and anxiety, but everyone suggested she see a doctor.

 

[twinglesmome]

It doesn't sound like you are going crazy. Rather, that you are recognizing a condition that may require a doctor's diagnosis and care.

I've had a few bad days and none have ever felt like what the OP described. The last thing I feel in numb... iritated, annoyed, exhausted, but definately able to identify the emotion.

 

[cm8]

OP, I hope that you are feeling a lot better today. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Please seek out the guidance of your physician if you have one and/or even call 211 and get some advice and support for the way you are feeling.

 

[shortbun]

I'm not a doctor but what you describe can be treated. You should go to a doctor right away so you can begin to get treatment. You should ask for a referral to a talk therapist and a psychiatrist as well. If your insurance doesn't require a referral, you could just call a phychiatrist, a talk therapist and your doctor on the same day. There is no reason to feel like you do but sometimes it happens and it can be corrected. You are not going crazy but you need to have some chemical corrections most likely. Today, you need to get the phone numbers written down that you are going to call tomorrow/Monday. Listen to some relaxing music, watch some light television, do not watch the news. Resting is just as good for you as sleep right now. You could try some melatonin but make sure you have at least 6 hours to sleep when you take it. It will be ok.

 

[stepmommyof1]

I have a lot of problems like that and back when I was in school it was even worse. I could barely function half the time.
Finally I got help and it turned out I have bipolar disorder. I still have problems but now that I'm getting treatment it helped so so much.
I'm not saying you are bipolar but just that there could be something going on and your doctor is the best person to turn to for figuring out what's going on. If this has happened for over two weeks then Go ask the dr.

 

[reseacher1963]

Do not try so hard. Do something off the cuff. Try something that you have never thought of doing. Try learning to jump out of a plane. Maybe noodling (catching fish bare handed). Many times we just get over whelmed with everything. It worked for me. Keep life fun. Laugh out loud when something is funny.

 

[starrzone]

I've been there, and am still there, to a point. There have been days when I can't concentrate, I don't feel like getting out of bed, I can barely function...Meds and therapy have helped a lot, but so has the support of family and friends. Find someone you can talk to- a friend, doctor, clergy person, anyone- who will help you get the help you need. That first step is the hardest to take .

If you ever need to talk, feel free to PM me. I will answer each and every one .

Nope! You are not going crazy. Know why? Because you are sane enough to question it..

I'm not a Dr. but it could be stress or depression. Go see your Dr. In the meantime, try to get out in the sunshine (leave the sunglasses home) get some fresh air, listen to the birds, relax. It will all be okay.

 

[charming23]

You are not crazy. It seems like the beginning stages of depression. That is how I felt before I fell into my depression a few years back. Go and see your doctor and they will be able to help you out and give you information on what do to to help.
