Lost all motivation

lisajane

I just feel like a bit of a rant here, really. Im so pissed off lately with the treatment i got for the past few months from the doctors, at a health clinic.

I have a few health issues which i have been worried over for a few months. Its not like me to be worried but i know i have some under lying cause to all the things i have been getting but im not a doctor, im not in a place to find out myself. Doctors are. They just prescribe creams for me and send me off again. Im in and out in less than 3 minutes.

The last time i was at the doctor i mentioned the hair loss i have been getting on my legs to see if they could make some kind of connection to everything else i have been getting and i was told if im still worried in a few months time, to call back. They might as well send me off dying.

I'm in the worst mood of my life. I hate leaving the house, I don't want to exercise, my motivation to do just about anything is pretty much nonexistent.

And i dread going back to the doctor, in and out in 2 minutes, prescribe something else from a book instead of just finding out what is wrong with me. And if i do go back it will probably take them forever to get tests done.

Sorry for the rant.

Have you gone to someone who can get deep down to the root of your problems? Like where they came from? Perhaps your childhood? As you say doctors will only give you so much...

I am not a pyschologist or a doctor so I cannot provide any solid advice.

However all I will say we are all your friends in this forum and rant away.
For now all I offer is hugs and lots of them!
Cheer up my friend and hopefully it will all be over soon.

Remain positive and keep on smiling

*hugs*

My ex had a very similar medical issue, where a whole host of doctors sent her away with no idea what was wrong with her. (Different country before ya blame the Health Services here. )

Took about 4 years for her to get a diagnosis, at which stage we'd met, fallen in love and broken up, etc. Shows what doctors can be like.

In all honesty, try a second opinion, or a third or a fourth if you have to.

I think its up to my gp to find out the root of my problems or even to refer me to a specialist if they dont know. Its not a mental problem iv got.
I ljust lost all motivation from the few problems which i have been getting lately. It can be sorted if doctors can do something besides another prescription which doesn't work.

Hi lisajane, having gone through six years of listening to Docs saying I'm healthy when clearly I'm not, I totally understand your rant!

I finally lost faith in the medical profession,did some research, took my health into my own hands and am now on the road (albeit slow road) to recovery...

Take care...
