Fair enough, I understand as I have the same problem. It’s an anxiety thing - it’s difficult to filter

The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.
Is that what it is??? I've had it for a while now (quite a few years) but never twigged on what it was...Originally Posted by Paula
I even asked my counsellor (1st one) about it as it is a reason i don't enjoy being out
He'd not heard of it
Any chance you could push yourself (and yes I know it's really hard) to maybe be social for a bit? You never know, it might be good?
Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!
Kind of sensory overload.... I sympathise.

Maybe being away and having quiet evenings means that you’ll have the opportunity to put things into compartments in your mind and help you break thoughts down into more manageable chunks.
One thing I’d say about hotel.. if you’re in the hotel on your own (ie not with work colleagues) then try and push yourself to go to the bar for your dinner rather than in your room. Take a newspaper so you don’t feel uncomfortable. But try not to lock yourself in with room service. Just hearing others around you (with no pressure to interact) will ultimately be more relaxing than cooped up in the room
I'll do that (partly anyway) ... i don't intend to eat in the restaurants because i'm trying to watch my food and hotel meals are a bit much - but i will have my dinner, then take my Kindle down into the bar and just chill out and read something fun
I know for my lovely husband he has similar sensations - for him it's a mix of anxiety, social phobia and sensory overload.

Going to see doctors in the morning .... finally sick of the jaw clenching side-effect of Citalopram....
It's causing me to take chunks out of my tongue & cheeks when i'm asleep and its super painful.
Never did it before in my life prior to these tablets so it's gotta be causal.
Dunno what i'll end up with
I'm glad you're going to talk it all over with your Dr. That's really important. Let us know how you get on?

Just got one of the nurse practioners since it was a 'walk in' appointment .... Have switched onto Sertraline 50mg
Didn't give me much in the way of advice/guidance on how to switch though ...
Absolute agony in my mouth today .... did a right bite on the tongue and took a massive chunk out and blood on the pillow
Just such a stupid random side-effect but my tongue and cheek are a right mess now
