Nervous Breakdown

Somebody help me! I really think I'm having a nervous breakdown.

I just recently went through a very nasty breakup with someone whom I thought was the love of my life. I've tried to get him back, but I think he's done. In the past few weeks since our breakup, I've been super depressed, can't eat, can't sleep, I've been drinking a lot (which I rarely ever do), and have had serious temper tantrums. I am very much a people person, but I'd rather just sit in my room under the covers watching the XM Satellite channels on Directv. I don't want to be around people. I feel like I never smile anymore, my nerves are shot.

I'm thinking about just walking into the hospital and saying "check me in", but don't know if I should maybe go see a shrink.

Please help me - I'm at my wits end, and don't want to be the person I have become in the last month. :cds:

Serious replies only please. I don't think I could take any nasty comments. :sad:

He didn't deserve you. :love: Since we know where he'll be on Sunday, we can go in disguise and key his car and throw poo at him from the audience. It'll help.

Nacho... You are not alone. We have all been there. Losing love is the hardest thing we ever have to do.

The hospital is a great place to start if you are having serious depression. I did a 28 day stay there myself, back in 1991 and it truly saved my life.

Even if you decide not to stay they can set you up with a great doctor and some meds to make this all a lot easier.

You will look back on this and be able to smile.

You think so? I'm really torn on this because I don't want my kids to see that I'm cracking up, and I especially don't want him to see me this way either. I just feel like I can't breathe anymore. I have so much to look forward to in the next couple months - yet I don't even care about it.

Apparently, it was too long. :ohwell: A couple years I guess.

I have been through a break up like this years ago....you must just get up and go on with your life.....at first you will just be going through the motions. But your joy will come back, it will take time....
I do not even know you, but I know your pain because it happened to me and my heart is broken for you...I am a praying person and I will say a prayer for you!

It was my daughter that got me up....about a week after the break-up and not getting out of bed that whole week, my daughter came to me and asked if we were still going on the day trip ( kids fishing trip ) the bus will be here soon she said. I told her NO, I don't feel good. I saw tears in her eyes.....my thoughts at that time were...I can do this to myself, but I can't do this to my kids. I got up and went on that fishing trip....I felt like crap the whole time, and I just kept going through the motions until the joy slowly starting coming back....it took weeks and it came back slow, very slow, but it did come back....it was one of the hardest periods of my life...

As Momma we try so hard to protect our babies. In my experience I have found that sometimes its good for the kids to see Mom breakdown.

It makes us more human and the kids can connect to that.

Right now the only thing that matters is that you take care of yourself. If you don't, you will be no good to anyone darlin.
