Hello yanbut: Thanks for sharing your concerns. My thinking with regard to this is that your first step ought to be seeing a mental health therapist. GP's, for the most part, aren't trained in mental health issues, & don't really have the time, or often the interest, to deal with them. The alternative is to try to get in to see a psychiatrist in order to receive a prescription for a psych med. However, from my perspective, I think talking this through with a skilled therapist would be the best way to begin, if this is a service you can access where you live.
