Hello all!
To get to the point, I have improved tremendously with my emotional symptoms of depression. I no longer self harm or have disordered eating. The thing is, I still have all sorts of physical symptoms where I can still feel the depression lingering. The most profound one being the fatigue. I am always just so tired! No matter if I get 3, 8, or 10 hours of sleep, I am always exhausted. I feel so heavy and as if I am melting or sinking into the ground as I walk or sit. It takes a lot of energy to lift my arms. I live a very busy life right now, due to school, work, and my internship, and I always feel too exhausted to enjoy any time for myself.

Then there is the other side of things. I get extremely anxious and sometimes have small panic attacks. There are times where I just get so tense and my heart feels like it is going to beat out of my chest (or explode, whichever comes first). This leads into the panic attacks. I am always just worried that someone is watching me or really that there is a negative energy (or spirit, if you will) is watching or following me. This causes a lot of my anxiety. Also, all of the stress that I have going on in my life. Even though my heart is racing and I am basically freaking out, I am still feeling super heavy and fatigued. I feel like since I am so anxious, I should feel more alert and high paced, but I am still so sluggish. I am no longer on any medication for anything, by the way.

I have no clue if any of that makes sense, but hopefully someone understands! It is just all so conflicting, it is sometimes hard to know what is going on with my body. Has anyone experienced this? Or any suggestions on what I should do?
