Falling apart...

This past week has been rough for me physically and stress-wise. Problems at work, not sleeping well....pain and aches that I shouldn't have....

I've been tossing and turning every night, just not able to get to that point of sweet unconsciousness.

Physically I feel like I'm coming apart at the seams. Every day feels slightly worse than the next. Weak, achey, tired, not able to focus mentally like I want. And its causing me more stress. And its not like I can afford to drop $60 to see a doc everytime I feel bad.

And problems with my car that I've had to pay out the ass for. $300 last week to replace a fuel filter, and now a $60 tire replacement. So no "emergency" money in the account is stressful.


I feel like I'm driving a car thats about to break down physically.

I hope you feel better soon gats. I'm glad to hear that you're going to the doc next week. Tell him how you have been feeling and make DAMN sure that they do all of the tests possible to figure out what's going on. Especially before fucking with medication doses and or switching them all together. Don't just let them toss pills at you man. Make sure they know 100% what the problem is before you take anything.

You do realize a roll of Brawny will work just as well as a real fuel filter?

I had a truck like that but it was paid for. So every year i basically figured it was goign to cost me $1000 in repairs to continue to drive it and for a few years i favored that over a car payment. But then it got to a point where it was becoming so unreliable that I didn't want to go more than 30 miles from home with it and that was affecting my lifestyle, so at that point i bought a new vehicle.

Dude, You really should go see a doctor. From the description of how you feel, It could be more than just "A bad day". Good luck to you.

+1 To what Hetfield said. I don't know you from Adam, man, but what you described sounds an aweful lot like CFS.

I think its the side effects of my blood pressure meds. So when I go to the doc next week I'll get him to switch my meds or give me a lower dose or something.
