Let's see here... I've always been too stubborn to go to the doctor, and I still kind of am, but I just came to the realization that I am in pretty rough shape.
I'm only 20 and my hair is thinning. It's pretty disappointing to look in the mirror and see small patches of scalp at my age.
I can't gain a single pound. I've always had a pretty fast metabolism but I'm 6'2" and I only weigh 130 pounds... I can eat bigger kids off the table and I don't gain a pound. I've even stopped exercising... although that is more due to winter than anything. A yearish ago I weighed a solid 160, when my girlfriend broke up with me, I somehow lost 30 of those pounds....(not on purpose) and have been 130 ever since. No matter what I do or don't do, I stay the same weight.
Since said breakup, I've pretty much been depressed a majority of the time. That is the main cause of it, but it is due to other things too... 3 family member deaths plus I was already SO crushed about the girlfriend thing.
I used to be the epitome of calmness, I was like a stone... but nowadays my heart will start POUNDING at the drop of a hat, especially in the morning. There have been times in the past few weeks where my chest area will actually hurt... again especially in the morning. I've become a chronic worrier. I worry about everything, and it usually will get my heart racing. I was never like this before.
Worst of all, I cannot sleep. I've always kind of been a weird sleeper but lately it has just hit rock bottom. I have a hard time falling asleep before 2 am, and when I do, I wake up within two hours or so. Even if I stay awake for a whole 24 hour period, if I go to bed before 2 am, I will wake up within a couple of hours. When I do manage to finagle myself on to a normal sleeping pattern, it only lasts a few days and usually ends in a 13 hour crash. Today was one of those days.. I went to bed at 2 am and woke up at 4 PM. Regardless of sleep, I am basically always tired. This really gets in the way of life.
Any ideas?
