I Think a Lot

I had a breakdown at work today. I have been very stressed emotionally lately (for like 2 months) and I feel like I am walking on a string. I lost consciousness and fell on the floor while I was doing photocopies of some files. I got back to senses and found myself laid on the desk and surrounded by colleagues. I felt very embarrassed. They continued asking me what's wrong with me but it's personal so I didn't share anything to them. Also, they wanted to take me to doctor. MY senior gave me lift to local GP.

This is third time I had a breakdown, 9th time I got unconscious in past 38 days.

After hearing the other symptoms GP said I'm having Syncope which can happen to anyone but my case is abnormal. :/ Heart is failing to pump enough blood to brain. He prescribed a few medicines and did ECG and then prescribed for MRI. Recommended me to both Cardiologist and Psychiatrist. He said my stress could be the reason for this. I slept for only 4 nights in past 11 days. Not sure what to do.

Check out Doctor John bergman on youtube. He covers all aspects of health. Im very sceptical about the shit u see online but this guy is very educated on subjects at hand. I to suffer mental health isdues and have seen psychiatrists and due to see one again soon. I coincidently suffer a similar condition to u with my heart. My dad died aged 56 from heart attack when i was 15 and it ruined my young life. I take no medication for the condition and i cannot remember the name of it but its like palputations that make me feel strange. I try to take regular exercise now and eat a little healthier. Im no fan of pharmaceuticals and especially after watching doctor john bergman. Hope u find answers and im always up for a char should u ever feel the need as sometimes the best sources of someone to chat to about personal issues are right here online. Check out dr john bergman when u have time and let me know what u think please. I suffer from severe depression and been on mirtazapine but now doing my best to get away from pharmaceuticals.
