Overwhelming sense of disgust

Recommended Posts

There’d probably a better term for this that I have not found. Today I’m feeling almost completely disgusted by everything, even things that I love. Just a sense of utter disgust at how I feel, how my body feels, food, drink, music, almost everything I am coming across today feels or comes across as disgusting.

 

Is there a term for this? I’m seemingly past a lot of my SSRI symptoms after 2 lousy years (Not getting my hopes up) but there is lingering extreme GAD-like anxiety and now all of the sudden today what I just described above. 

Prozac (2007-2008), Zoloft (2009-2017) Paxil (2017-2018), Celexa (2018), Luvox (2018-Current) Average 50-200. Nothing as of January 2019

Lorazepam 2007-Current 2MG 3 times a day

Oh, I had that a lot in the beginning for a few months. Was accompanied with nausea. I call it the "yuck feeling." It's really awful. 

 

For the anxiety, even though it is a neuro-emotion, a course of CBT helped manage it (12 sessions). Basically helped cut the loop of escalation. 

 

Hope this relents soon. It's truly a an awful experience.

"Nothing so small as a moment is insurmountable, and moments are all that we have. You have survived every trial and tribulation that life has thrown at you up until this very instant. When future troubles come—and they will come—a version of you will be born into that moment that can conquer them, too." - Kevin Koenig
