Hi
For the past two weeks or so I can't sleep and when I do sleep its very fitful and i dont wake feeling refreshed. Apparently I've started calling out and sounding distressed in my sleep.
I also have no energy I have to drag myself through each day when all i want is for the world to just go away and leave me alone. My heads fuzzy I'm exhaused.
I'm tearful all the time too the slightest thing is getting to me but yet I'm not enjoying positive stuff either and I can't concentrate on the things I normally like to do. I just burst into tears in front of my mum totally unexpectly and I'm on the brink of tears now as I write this.
I don't know what to do to stop this, my work life is suffering I'm getting flack for that. Its driving me mad. I feel like everything is closing down and pressing in on me.

its most likely, from what you have said that because you cannot sleep, you are drained of energy adn therefore unable to enjoy your day to day activities... i went through a stage of this a while ago. lack of sleep also makes you feel really emotional, hence your crying.
unless, you are stressed over anything else? - in which case what you are describing could be symptoms of depession.
- either way, i think you should have a chat with your gp.
I had loads of time off back end of last year for stress and now I'm on a written warning over it and my boss is breathing down my neck over every thing and the last thing I need is something else she can use to make me feel bad
Thanks for your advice

you'd only need about an hour or so off work to go down and see your doctor - can't you do it in your lunch break?
